Configure FeedBurner for Blogger Blog

Feedburner is feed management tool by Google. I found it very useful adding feeds on the blogger. I’ll explain in simple steps how feedburner can be configured for the blogger.

Login into feedberner.com using your Google account credentials. 
Key in your blog name in the text field as shown below and click 'Next>>' button  
The Feeburner automatically detects your feed URLs if you had enabled the feed in your blogger under settings. Usually there will be two feed urls for blogger. The one being RSS and the other Atom.Select the one you prefer, I preferred RSS and select the one by selecting radio buttons as shown below 

               

               

Click Next>> button to proceed further.  

There are chances that if your feeds are larger than 512k, then will get an error message saying the same.                                                                                        

 

To resolve this, use following feed URL format: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?max-results=3 
In next step, provide the feed title and feed address in the dialog shown as below                                                                                                                                   

You will get a congratulations message, click Next button. Select the options that feedburner provides as shown below                       

On click of Next button, you will see the following page
                                  

Select from blogger options, For example, you can select 'Redirect your     

Blogger feed to your FeeBurner feed>>' link or Offer blog updates via email, etc.

 

Click on Publicize tab and you will get various options to display the RSS feeds, select the services that interest you. Select and see how each service will work for you. You can disable the services if you do not like anyway.




The Headline Animator looks interesting, have a look at that, the headline animator widget is provided with different dimensions choose the one that suits your blog. On headline animator is created for this blog, you might already be seeing that.

The feedburner software provides you the ability to view how many people subscribed to your blog, basically it provides the statistics of feed subscribers and you have always an option of disabling your RSS feeds if you do not like them in the feed burner. All feedburner options are added as widgets to you blog and hence you have the option of deleting the widget if you do not like them.
