When you have RSS feeds on your content, and all the readers are letting the world know about your feed, how can you keep track of RSS traffic? How many people are subscribing to your feed, what kind of traffic is resulting, and other feed based analytics? RSS analytics is a relatively new area of web services. I have not reviewed these tools so I cannot vouch for them from experience. From my research though, there are two current players in this space, Feedburner and SyndicateIQ. Both tools exist to help you know how many subscribers you have, how many click through to your content and so on.


You have all the world's information and a mechanism to help you keep it all straight. What else could you possibly need?

What? Social bookmarking, collaborative tagging, democratic popularity engines and community link clouds? Oh dear. Good thing I can subscribe to more RSS feeds to keep up with such latest developments so I'll be ready to write another newsletter. Hum... that one looks interesting - see ya!
