Possibly Ways to Track RSS Readerships

– October 17, 2003Posted in: Commercial Weblogging, E-Mail Publishing

Brian Peddle of SavedByZero.org discusses possible ways to track readers of Rich Site Summary (RSS) feeds. It certainly won’t beat an e-mail subscriber list and e-mail open/clickthrough tracking as ways to know who reads your content.

With the method I discuss you can track how many times your feed was read. If you want to track clickthroughs you can simple alter your links to include a tracking code.

Example: If you link to this blog posting.

in your rss feed you could do

http://www.digitaldeliverance.com/MT/archives/000257.html?rssFeed=true

or any querystring.

As for knowing the actual user, you are right you cannot beat email tracking.
