    Didn`t you say they had only 3 subscribers last week.  So thats a 66% increase of subscribers in a week. Numbers are so great.

  2. Yes. The number of feed subscribers is the indicator of how many people want to read your content on a daily basis, using a feed reader like Google Reader. It is very difficult to get people to subscribe to a blog —even though it is free. Most people visit a blog they found out thanks to Google, and then leave cold. Only a very tiny percentage of them will subscribe.

    Midas Oracle has about 950 feed subscribers —that’s in counting both the Web-based feed subscribers and the PC-based feed subscribers. (These numbers were taken on the raw logs. By the way, beware the numbers taken from FeedBurner. They are inflated.) But those 950 people are a very small portion of the hundreds of thousands of people who have visited Midas Oracle since November 2006.

    (310,000 visits, with 72% new visits.)
    My computation gives that 0.1% of the people who have visited Midas Oracle since November 2006 have subscribed to its main feed (a.k.a. RSS feed).
    That’s smaller that I thought.
    It’s probably the same ratio for the other blogs.
