I’ve done the same. The RSS feeds for my weblogs run through Feedburner. Looking at the conept of weblogs and the way they are “consumed” the number of hits on your RSS feed will certainly be higher than on your webpages.
I like metrics, I like data – I like feedback. I’d like to know, in detail, how my RSS feed is consumed.
I posted earlier about my frustration on their being a lack of common/standard metrics for RSS and FeedBurner not only helps define these metrics but also provides a way for me to apply these to my RSS feed and analyse (nice interface – tells me CTR, aggregator details, etc).
Steve Rubel’s has moved his RSS feed over to FeedBurner and I may very well do the same. I’ve had a play and I like what I see…before I make the leap (i.e. ask you to subscribe to the FB feed, rather than this one) I’ll need to figure out if there are any downsides to the move over (I can’t think of any yet)…
