The+Uses+of+Feedburner

Feedburner is a news management system, primarily designed to compile various feeds into one streamlined page for the reader. As well as "burning" your feed into their feed management system which exposes your feed to new readers, it provides analytical statistics of your feed so that you are able to oversee and manage your blog content as well as your subscribers.
 * Overview**

Feedburner is currently one of the most popular news management systems. It can be used with both [|RSS] and [|XML] feeds (also known as [|syndication]), and published feeds can be modified in many ways to suit the user's liking. Feedburner currently burns over 250,000 feeds and provides feed for almost 20 million subscribers.

News feed is the updates content of a website. Feed is one of the easiest ways to keep track of updates on a particular site. For instance, if you own a weblog (such as the ones found on [|Blogger] or [|Wordpress]) and you created updates in your blog, the blogging system would create a feed automatically each time you updated. News feed is the content of your blog in an RSS or XML format, and it is published in the format of a specifically formatted page. It is in this form that the feed is used by Feedburner to "burn" your content.
 * What is news feed?**

First, go to [|Feedburner's Homepage]. There, you can [|register for a Feedburner account]. Once you have finished the registration process for your account, you will be directed to a page where you need to specify the URL of the site whose feed you want to "burn", and then create a Feedburner page for it. Once you have specified all the required details, you now have an active and fully functional Feedburner account.
 * How do I set up a Feedburner account?**

Feedburner account URLs follow the following format: http://feeds.feedburner.com/youraccountnamehere. You can link to your Feedburner account on your weblog, so that others know they are able to subscribe to your feed and if they wish to, they would know where to be able to receive your feed updates. On a typical Feedburner URL, there is a box on the top right hand corner, which has the heading "Subscribe Now!", followed by various news aggregators that can receive the feeds you have subscribed to and deliver your daily subscriptions to your email inbox. There, readers can choose their preferences and sign up to read your feed. You can also manage your Feedburner statistics after having set up your account - you will be presented with your account page once you [|login].
 * What happens after I've created a Feedburner account?**

Feedburner constantly rolls out new updates and new functions for each Feedburner account, and they blog about all of their updates on their [|updates blog]. There is not much left to do once you have created and setup your Feedburner account, as Feedburner logs all of your statistics and analyzes them for you, so you do not have to do anything extra.
