Feedburner email

FeedBurner is a popular service that allows you to manage and distribute your blog's or website's RSS feed. One of the key features of FeedBurner is the ability to send email updates to subscribers who want to receive notifications when new content is published.

Here's how to set up email notifications using FeedBurner:

Step 1: Create a FeedBurner account

If you haven't already, create a FeedBurner account by going to feedburner.google.com and following the sign-up process.

Step 2: Add your feed

Once you have a FeedBurner account, add your blog's or website's RSS feed to the service. You can do this by clicking on the "Add a feed" button and entering the URL of your RSS feed.

Step 3: Configure email notifications

To set up email notifications, click on the "Publicize" tab and then click on "Email Subscriptions". From here, you can configure the email notifications settings.

Step 4: Choose your email notification settings

You can choose to send email notifications to subscribers when:

• New posts are published
• New comments are added
• New items are added to your feed

You can also customize the email notification settings, such as the frequency of emails, the number of items to include in each email, and the format of the email.

Step 5: Add subscribers

To add subscribers to your email list, you can use the "Email Subscriptions" widget on your blog or website. This widget allows visitors to enter their email address and subscribe to your feed.

Step 6: Verify your email address

To ensure that your email notifications are delivered correctly, you'll need to verify your email address. FeedBurner will send a verification email to the address you entered, and you'll need to click on the verification link to confirm your email address.

Tips and best practices

• Make sure to test your email notifications to ensure that they are working correctly.
• Consider using a double opt-in process, where subscribers need to confirm their email address before they start receiving notifications.
• Use a clear and concise subject line and email body to ensure that your subscribers can easily identify your emails.
• Consider using a newsletter-style email format to make your notifications more engaging and easy to read.

By following these steps and tips, you can set up email notifications using FeedBurner and keep your subscribers informed about new content on your blog or website.
