How do I setup feedburner on my blog?

I do not get feedburner. I set it up like 2 months ago and posted the link in my sidebar but it does not show any subscribers.

How do I set up the thing on my blog. I cant find out how on the website.

Thanks

 

Which blog platform do you have?
If you are using blogger then you need to do a few things in the settings tab in blogger dashboard.

First you need to make the feedburner url from the feedburner site. Then copy the url of your feed and paste it in the "Post Feed Redirect URL" under the settings in blogger.

This is for blogger blogs.

 

Just past the feedburner code where ever you want using theme editor

 

How come it does not show the number of subscribers? I have had the link by itself posted for a while.
I use wordpress.

 

Did you post the chicklet provided by the feedburner?
Can you please give the link of your blog, let me check it..
thanks

 

if you are using wordpress then check out this link to installing feedburner.

My blog is in my sig or here:
http://www.cowsgonemadd3.com

Check the link on the right sidebar.

 

You haven't put the chicklet in your blog, i can only see the "Subscribe to my blog here! Get updates on my newest posts!" under blogroll.

Did you put the chicklet from feedburner there?

 

See I dont know what a chicklet is. Thats probably what I am doing wrong.

 

I don't know how this works in wp.
Login to your feedburner account and select your feed.
Then click the publicize tab and click "FEEDCOUNT".
Now you will have to activate it and choose the required color and design.
Now copy the html and put it in your blog, in sidebar.

 

Okay that worked great.
Now does anyone know how to set up a one time popup asking people to RSS through feedburner?
Can I share messages through feedburner?
I would love like a one time popup for first time visitors so they will subscribe.

 

I think you should try to put the "subscribe feeds to email" also. It will be more useful/
Login to feedburner and enable email subscriptions and put the code in your site. In this way users will recieve feeds on their inbox.

 

Thanks I might do that.

Do you think a one time popup is too much? I really need some subscribers and I want them to subscribe. I might give it a try.

 

You can transfer feedburner plugin from wp diresctories if your blog is a wp blog than after transfering it to your plugin directory you can change the settings easily.

 

i don't know how to put the a one time popup from the blog.
