Get more RSS subscribers using this Facebook application

Recently I wrote about how to increase your RSS subscribers using Facebook and covered the basics. However I've since found a great application that makes life so much easier...

While browsing the list of applications I stumbled across the Blog RSS Feed Reader application which requires so little effort from you I find it hard not to recommend it. It's a simple case of install it, add your RSS feed, decide how many feed items to display and done:

The above screenshot of my profile shows the previous implementation (notes) against this new application - it's fair to say that the RSS feed reader looks much better, displays more information and offers a direct subscription link from your profile. It's also good because it adds RSS updates to your mini-feed so that friends can quickly see that you've updated.

With this application you can't go far wrong - you can show quite a few RSS items on your profile and therefore proportionally increase the chance of getting a conversion out of it. Well worth a look in my opinion: check it out - the Blog RSS Feed Reader.

Enjoy this article? Why not subscribe to the full RSS feed?

I too don’t think this application will increase the RSS subscribers.

I’ve been using that RSS ’reader’ for a while now, though I’m not sure it’s added much if any to my subscriber base....however my friends list is quite small and mostly just of people in know IRL..

Does myspace have something similar to this too?
