I’ve been noticing my rss subscribers have been going from 13 to 18 to 26 RSS readers. I’m not sure what my number is at but it keeps fluctuating.
I did a quick search to figure out what the problem was and problogger.net posted about this.
Here’s a snippet from his article that sums up the reason for RSS Subscriber Count Fluctuates.
Why does my Feedburner Subscriber Count Fluctuate?
The fluctuations are almost always due to people using stand-alone computers who don’t turn their computer on, or don’t load their feed reader on a given day. If their feed reader doesn’t ask for the feed that day, we don’t see them, and consequently don’t include them as a subscriber. (note from Darren – this is why on weekends numbers tend to go down as a result of less people checking their feed reader).
Interesting, this has been bothering me for about 2-3 weeks
Finally I solved it.
