What about five years down the road and FeedBurner goes away or charges $$$$ for this service. All the RSS subscribers have the FeedBurner url in their RSS readers instead of the URL which I control.

Though, I have a question. Can I have a blank option for email subscription option in the main page of blog itself instead of a link opening up in a new age? Thanx.:) Hi,
I was quite confused about this subscription thing but you definitely made it easy with friendly guidelines. Though, I have a question. Can I have a blank option for email subscription option in the main page of blog itself instead of a link opening up in a new age?

Thanx.:)

You can set whether or not your feed publishes partial or full RSS feeds. In order to publish partial feeds, however, you have to insert the "more" tag (as it's called) where you want the break to occur. Following this break is the link to continue reading. @Richard – It’s not a FeedBurner option, it’s an option in WordPress (and other blogs).

I am curious about his one: Feedburner publishes just the first few lines of a posting for some feeds and then you are opt to read on by accessing the full blog entry on a site. Good for site stats. For other feeds, Feedburner gives the whole posting. The viewer has no need to visit the host blog How is this option of a) first few lines or b) all the post set up? Within FeedBurner? Hi

How is this option of a) first few lines or b) all the post set up? Within FeedBurner?

You should subscribe to both for your own blog so you know everything's working ok. FeedBurner sends out the emails at the same time every day, and you can set that time. You need to publish your post before that time in order to make it for that day, otherwise your post will be grouped in with the next day's. @Erin – People can subscribe to both the emails and the RSS if they want to.

I have added the Feedburner e-mail subscription option, and have already had people subscribe. Also, like you said, Wordpress already has the built in RSS feature. A few questions: --How often/at what point does Feedburner send the e-mails. For instance, I posted last night (and I've subscribed to my own e-mail feed just to make sure it goes through), and am yet to receive an e-mail about my blog update. --If people do not want to subscribe via e-mail, are they still able to subscribe via RSS feed (i.e., that shows for me in the top right hand when I open my blog with Mozilla Firefox)? Or are these two ways of receiving updates not compatible? Does the RSS feed have to be through Feedburner, or can they still get it through their standard internet page option? I'm confused. Basically, I just want to make sure my readers can get the updated information I post--in the format they prefer, and I wasn't sure if by adding the Feedburner e-mail option it disabled the Wordpress RSS option instantly.
