As far as I can tell though, Blogger doesn't support "burning" the comment feed.<BR/><BR/>I also couldn't find any code to use in the footer of the feed that would allow me add that link w/o feedburner. So for now I don't know a way to do it.Kevin Berridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13759114853595462455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579772240267288367.post-62667371759779934452008-06-04T19:50:00.000-04:002008-06-04T19:50:00.000-04:00Nice!

If you look at some of the best sites those guys find a topic at least once a week. <BR/><BR/>Admittedly RSS feeds kinda marginalize the need for that, but RSS feeds also marginalize the likelihood of getting comments. <BR/><BR/>I would strongly consider getting more active in the random community things and pimping your blog. people do it all the time on twitter. The catch is you cant make every twitter update a "hey look i posted" you actually have to be a twitter user who occasionally advertises their site.Josh Schrammhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04179432092617833919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579772240267288367.post-51892772120593351122008-06-04T11:05:00.000-04:002008-06-04T11:05:00.000-04:00Thanks Jeff, I definitely lost my bet...

That highlights one piece of advice I've heard about improving circulation: interact with other people on their blogs. <BR/><BR/>I'm a big fan of the semi-regular schedule. I try to post roughtly weekly, though last month was a bit of a miss. <BR/><BR/>Oh and it would seem that you have now lost your bet on feedback ;)Jeff Scudderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13002167096451875802noreply@blogger.com
