How to Know the Exact number of RSS Subscribers of a Blog
RSS Chicklets can be hacked to misinterpret the number of RSS subscribers a Blog has. I have seen many bloggers trying to Fool their readers by showing Fake RSS Counts in their blog.
Some of the common methods are Photoshop or embedding Screenshot of a Popular’ blog’s RSS chicklet in their Own template.However these people do not know that you can’t fool everyone.
How do I Know the Exact number of RSS Subscribers of a Blog ?
First Copy the Address of RSS feed of the blog whose subscriber count you want to know. Then extract the name of the feed and append http://feedproxy.google.com/~fc/ Just before it .Place the Resulting address in the Browser address bar.
For example : If the Blog RSS feed is http://feeds2.feedburner.com/ampercent you can know the Exact Number of RSS subscribers by entering http://feedproxy.google.com/~fc/ampercent in the Browser address bar
