Interesting news. Now, learning how to monitize that information is something else.

Cool, i just finally broke down and set up Google reader, i was using a mac-based system, but the ubiquity of google is equity for everybody... i kind of sound like a sales rep, yikes! Anyway, it is a nice service, i just wish it looked nicer instead of the baby blue nightmare scheme.

Ain't there no love in the 'hood for poor old Coding Horror? Et tu, Scoble!

I have 32,379 subscribers by this metric, which means I am now officially more important than the front page of the New York Times!

TAKE THAT GRAY LADY!

I find three different entries and two different numbers for my blog. Add them? take the biggest? Confusing.

Hey Robert - I commented over at TC but thought it couldn't hurt to mention it here as well. My blog 'Dumb Little Man' has a Google Reader subscriber count just north of 53K.

Hi5 Codes -- You're being very short-sighted. If used properly, a good RSS feed will bring MORE visitors to your site. For example, I follow about 250 feeds and keep up with them every day. There is NO WAY I'd visit all 250 sites each day, but I happily click-through when I find a good item (such as the one we're on right now).

If your site found its way into my feedreader, I'd see ALL of your new content every day. Otherwise, I might visit your site once every x days, when I happen to think of it.

Google reader was reporting 2321 yesterday for quickonlinetips.com and after the update is reporting 6117, which is fairly accurate by Feedburner's Google feedfetcher counts also.

Being a webmaster myself, - I really don't like Google Reader. I like visitors coming to my own page for the content...

I couldn't get the Google reader values for Sciencebase but Feedburner reported about 2600 overall last time I looked, and Odiogo stats just in show I've got 1000+ podcast subscribers on top of that ;-)

204 for BusinessBlogWire, out of about 650 FeedBurner subs. I'd guess that the Know More Media network has maybe 5,000-7,000 Google Reader subcribers (around 20,000 FeedBurner subs total).

Interesting exercise, thanks for the tips...

I got 260 via Google Reader... 1,111 via Feedburner... but I am now just confused by Danny Sullivan's post (mentioned above: http://tinyurl.com/2lcdcl), so I think I'll just forget about subscriber #s and go get some work done.

We've now posted on the Reader blog with more details about this:

The post mentions that the counts were slightly off until this morning, so keep that in mind when looking at lists that may be using older numbers.

Wild - here are my subscriber numbers. Interesting how the numbers are so off from each other (ie., bloglines via bloglines vs feedburner):

Bloglines:
533 (via search)
173
190
531 (looking at the individual subscription)

Feedburner:
2141
735 (bloglines)
661 (Google Feedfetcher)

Google Reader:
478
478 (this shows twice for some reason)

My main feed (Google Earth Hacks) is showing 92,592 in Reader. FeedBurner is showing a total of 94,080, so that's about right. Being a site about a Google product, I've long suspected that the vast majority were using Reader and/or iGoogle.

If I aggregate my feeds I am up to 922 on Andybeard.eu

Danny Sullivan — Mon, 15 Oct 2007 03:59:11 -0000

Mike, it's not a guess. Feedburner uses the Google Feedfetcher figure, which itself is the combination of iGoogle + Google Reader subscribers. That's why people are seeing Google Reader figures coming in lower. http://searchengineland.com... explains this more, including how to get iGoogle reader figures.

One important thing to remember about all of this is that certain feeds are part of the GR feed bundles. They will naturally have highly inflated subscriber counts. This leaderboard exercise is a waste of time, sorry.
