Increasing RSS subscribers is one of many goals a blogger would try to achieve. Even though RSS subscriber may not visit your website, but you are sure that any post you made through your website, it is heard by at least the number of RSS subscribers you had.
I am in the learning process of adding my RSS subscribers as well. You may have noticed that I have this block of code right above my post asking visitor to subscribe to my RSS. It is very similar with the plugin What Would Seth Godin Do which leaves a cookie to track new and old visitor. But this is permanent.
It is pretty simple to install this. Copy and paste rss.php into your current theme folder. Paste the following code where you need to display the message.
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . ‘/rss.php’); ?>
This could be useful for an announcements, promoting a contest, asking for rss subscribers, advertisements and any other things you could think of.
It is added into your template folder so that you are able to edit/change the text easily though your blog.
