Blogging Idol Competitors: You Need to Activate Your Feedburner Feed Count
This is a quick note for the bloggers that sent an application for the Blogging Idol. I am starting to create the scoreboard, and I am noticing that a large amount of the competitors don’t have the Feedburner feed count active.
In order for you to participate in the competition there are two requirements:
1. I must be able to find the Feedburner feed on your blog
2. You must have the “Feed Count” feature enabled
Those were stated in the rules so make sure you are meeting those requirements.
If you don’t know how to do this, here is a quick guide: Go to Feedburner.com, register an account and “burn your feed.” Then display that feed link somewhere in your blog. Then log into your Feedburner control panel, go under “Publicize,” and then “Feed Count.” Then activate it.

Can’t wait Daniel.
My extremely pitiful feed count has been activated.
Less the 24 hours to Go! Let he games begin.
i have goog feedburner…will it do?
Sorry about that…I activated my feed count and added the feedburner chicklet to my site. Good luck to everyone!
Ops. Sorry about that. Mine is active now. You can find it in my sidebar.
Thank you for the reminder Daniel, just activated the feed count.
done it already as u said:)
Whew.. I never know there’s another rss contest going on..
Instead of Feed Count, I show the number of subscribers via XML (I don’t like that ugly image =/). Is it valid?
Mine is active and displaying (which hurts a little seeing as it’s so low!)
Please guys do it fast..
Added it to the “about” page! Sorry about that.
Done and done.
That shouldn’t be an issue with my blog.
Anyways,it’s quite exciting to give a head-start.
mine has been activated.
Hopefully my new blog will do well
happy hunting everyone!
Sorry, mine’s in the sidebar now, did it after you sent the email
My ” feed count ” was active and you can see it in the side bar, if not, please let me know. The total subscription was only 5 up till now, but I will try it to be more.
@Julio, yeah that is fine.
As long as the feed count is active.
Does that mean that we have to put it on the sidebar or only activate it?
@Arlind, you just need to have it active.
Ready to go here!
I’ve activated mine now. All good?
