How To Resurrect Declining RSS Subscribers

Posted February 20th, 2012. Filed under Blogging And RSS

Getting traffic to your blog and turning your visitors into loyal readers requires a lot more than just writing new blog posts. If you want visitors returning to your site, then of course it’s important to make the site sticky, etc. As you know, your readers are prospective customers, so it only makes good business sense to offer them the best experience possible. What follows are several excellent methods that will compel visitors to stay longer and perhaps become RSS subscribers.

The first thing you should keep in mind when you want to keep subscribers is that your content should always be new. You never want to take content from other sites because that will tell people that you’re not really serious. Your aim here is to make your subscribers stick to your feed by providing them with content that they won’t find elsewhere. It’s almost like selling them a product where your customers won’t like you if your product is a rip-off. The easiest way to provide fresh content is to write your content with your own personality so that it’s unlike anything your readers have read. Plenty of bloggers have seen lots of success and it’s all because they are always providing information that’s valuable and rare and their readers appreciate that.

The more serious you take your subscribers the more serious they will take you. Remember that RSS subscribers are easier caught then held onto, so always work at keeping your subscribers happy. Secondly, if you want your subscribers to stay then you will have to give them a reason to, without distracting them in any way. I’m talking about including too many hyperlinks in your posts because people tend get diverted into another direction when this happens. You want their whole focus on whatever content you provide, so that it benefits them the most. That’s why you don’t want to leave too many ways for them to escape. Your posts are supposed to be valuable in themselves where the subscribers learn something new without leaving. Your readers are going to be grateful that they can have everything they want right on one page instead of having to go search for additional information that you didn’t provide. Then, when people are done reading your post, post your link where it won’t be a distraction, so they know where to go. The bottom line is that your page should be where your subscribers will come when they want every bit of information regarding whatever issue they’re having.

Lastly, your posts should always keep to your topic and should never stray. If your readers have subscribed to your RSS feed then they expect to see the same kind of content from you. Feel free to experiment with new ways of writing your blog, but don’t ever change what you’re writing about as a whole. If you can keep your blog focused, more people will see it as valuable and they’ll want to keep your RSS feed. The higher quality you make every aspect of your site, then the better chance you have with building RSS subscribers. You need to focus on giving your readers top notch information so that they don’t have any reason to unsubscribe. It may take some time to completely see your overall picture but once you do then you’ll do well. If you take the time to put good effort into this plan, then you’ll be able to produce more RSS subscribers plus be able to keep them.
