RSS? Allowing people to suscribe
-
I was just trying to get subscribers! I want readers to be able to subscribe
to my blog and view posts on like Google Reader etc.
So I decided to try the RSS thingy, and if you click my RSS comments or posts feeds, its just
gibberish.
Since I seem to have blown it, can someone tell me how to do it, possibly with even those cool little icons I seeThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

When you click the new RSS Links Widget on my site it generates a page of code, is that what is meant to happen?

Works fine for me could you please take a screen shot of the Gibberish you’re referring too you can use Jing to take high quality screen shots http://jingproject.com
Also what browser version are you using ?

This what I see when I use Firefox 3.5.2 http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/4251/rssca2.png [Update the image is now the correct size]
This is what I see with Google Chrome: 2.0.172.43
http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/8397/rsstl.pngWhat’s going on is that Google Chrome just displays the RSS feed in it’s raw format
if someone chooses to copy and paste your feed URL into their Google reader the content will display correctly like this screen shot example.

I see.
The actual URL needs to be pasted.
I am guessing then I should remove the links.
Is there a direct way for people to subscribe to a blog?Eg. How did you set up your amazing RSS? It looks great.
Love that song by the way.

It’s part of the iNove theme options
Is there a direct way for people to subscribe to a blog?
Yes Feed burner offers direct subscribe
I recommend burning your feed through Feedburner so you can offer a more robust feed as well as email updates of your feed to your readers also with feedburner you can see how many readers have subscribed to your feed burner feed.
Note Feed Burner require a Google account here is the Feed burner link
