FeedBurner Facts & Stats

July 03, 2007

FreeBurner for Everyone

One of the many benefits that FeedBurner publishers will enjoy now that FeedBurner is part of the Google family is a little something we like to call, "more for free!" Beginning today, two of FeedBurner's previously for-pay services, TotalStats and MyBrand, will be free. Not in the sense of soaring high above the clouds or recently sprung from the hoosegow, but free like you'll no longer gladly be billed on Tuesday for a burned feed today. We suspect this will be welcome news to the 450,000+ of you using many of our other free services, but understanding that your feed is your feed, you will need to activate these newly freed-up services in order to partake in their awesomeness.

FeedBurner Stats PRO
PRO is feed analytics taken to the next level. You will now have access to the number of people who have viewed or clicked individual content items in your feed and “Reach,” which estimates the daily number of subscribers who interacted with your feed content. You can turn this on by signing in to your account, navigating to the Analyze tab and heading to the FeedBurner Stats PRO section. Click the "Item Views" checkbox to activate these PRO features.

MyBrand
The MyBrand service (also PRO-level) is located under the "My Account" tab after you've signed in. MyBrand lets you maintain consistency between your feed address and your hosted website's domain, if matchy-matchy is your thing. For example, rather than using feeds.feedburner.com/MyFeedName, your MyBrand-ed feed address can be feeds.myexcellentdomain.net/MyFeedName. To get started with MyBrand, sign into FeedBurner, click the "My Account" link in the upper left-hand corner, and then click "MyBrand". Nota Bene: You must be comfortable playing around with DNS entries and own the rights to the domain whose DNS entries you'll be playing around with in order to successfully activate MyBrand.

Previous "PRO" customers will not be charged for the month of June 2007 and beyond. Also, after newly activating either of these features or services, you'll notice a nifty new "PRO" badge next to your feed(s) on My Feeds page.

Welcome to FreeBurner!

That tasty, tasty Google Juice! Thanks, guys!

I was hoping something like this would happen.

Happy Day!

Thanks FeedBurner!

Let me the first to say - Thank you! More power to Google and feedburner team :)

Thanks Google ;)

Gotta love this 4th of July present...

Thank you!

Thanks for making it free.

Nice move guys!

Thank you FreeBurner / Google. Happy 4th!

Another seminal moment. Thanks FB.

thank you!!!!

Yes, a most excellent gift for the 4th of July. Thank you Feedburner!!

Thank you so much! This is great.

a very good news for all feedburner users.

Thanks for the heads up and the new free features.

Thank you Google!!

Thank you! I'm going to updated my feeds.

wow, that's quite a remarkable thing :) I'm just not used to getting ANYTHING free nowadays, let alone premium services from respected web services like Feedburner :)

I just subscribed yesterday, and already today good news! Keep on!

Delighted to see it, looking forward to the enhanced stats and new "freeness"

I like it. Free is the King. Privacy is the Queen.

Lots of Love for Feedburner and Google! Thank you!

is it possible to see more than just the top ten in these categories:
visitors
pages
incoming
outgoing
?
thanks

Very nice! I've been wanting to try the MyBrand service but couldn't justify paying for the pro version.

Dude, bring on more freebies!

I hate the idea.

Then again, I hate everything, just to be contrary on general principles. If not for that, I'd love the idea. Too bad, though, can't be helped.

Both services are attractive. And I love the service MyBrand a little more.
Greate feedburner, great google!

Woo-hoo this is awesome news :D

Thanks a lot!

Thanks to the Feedburner team for the great tools, and thanks to Google for keeping the spirit alive.

Wow.. Interesting. This is very good news for all Feedburner users.

Woo Hoo!
I [heart] FeedBurner

Can't wait to see the new data from my free Pro account.

Thanx guys

This is good for all

That is why I love Google so much! They are a great company and I am using many of their services! Keep up the wonderful work.
Thanks to the entire Google team! :D

Woh! This is such a great news. Nice stuff we get. The feedburner experience is getting better and better.

An excellent news... Just a suggestion: is it possible to have FeedBurner translated into French?

Thank you so much! This is really great.

Nice, will try out the stats. Already using redirects so wont be using MyBrand but useful service none the less.

Thank you, Google!

The Feedsparks widget was updated this morning to support some of this newly free functionality.

Feedsparks is a widget for iGoogle (or the sidebar of your blog) which will show historical graphs (sparklines) for several Awareness API-enabled FeedBurner feeds.

There's now an option to display "reach" for feeds with the Pro statistics enabled.

It'll get an update to support MyBrand feeds soon.

This is good for all, thanks Google :-)

Conveniently, now is the time I chose to sign up for feedburner. Perfect

I was thinking about it today when I saw my blog's FeedBurner's URL and MyBrand is now free for everyone!!!

Amazing telepathy! :p

Wow. Thanks a lot. I was hoping for this. I would pay if I had the money, so this is really good news for me.

That's great news! I'll also try the stats in addition to other, paid solutions and than go and use feedburner on even more of my sites.

Thank you!

But when comes feedburner in other language? i wait for german langage :-)

Tomsn

Its simply great....google is the best campaigner of free resurcing & also the provider ......its really help the web world to sharing info.............

Great!
Looking forward for the Google Analytics / FeedBurner integration
Maybe the next step?

I was hoping for news like this. The way Google offers us more for free is exciting. Feedburner + Google Analytics! What's not to like?

Yay! Thank you so much! Thank you Feedburner... and thank you Google!

I love Google so much!today good news

Great News :)

Wow, that´s cool. So I think I´ll really use this service again. Thanks

This is excellent. Especially the statistics are great !!!

Excellent guy's, really, really GooglyBurnly.

Thanx.

Great! Thanks so much FeedBurner and Google.

Great! Thanks Google!!

I'd just like to add my joy to the bunch. I stumbled across this news while updating my blog this morning. I then proceeded to run right over to feedburner to update my feeds immediately!

Thanks!

Dee

Excellent I look forward to trying these new utilities. Hopefully more stuff to come in the future

Good work Feedburner, and thanks Google! Gratis is a great price.

Nice - we've been using the mybrand service ever since for our feed but no we can add the stats pro as well. thx for that!

WOW, Google did the same thing when they bought Picasa, Urchin, Blogger Pro, Keyhole. Thanks Google :D

Great, thanks a lot.

More for Free!
Excellent strategy. This will cause that more people use the great feedburner services.
Thanks!

Thanks to Google, there are more free features.

Thank for make it free ...

Wow, thank you Google for the free tools!

I am not exactly sure what you are going to do with the extra data, but with everything else you got on us I don't think this will hurt :).

Thanks Again!

-Ryan

I am not sure what all of this will mean. But it sounds good and once I learn how to take advantage of these new utilities I know I will enjoy them.

P

Thanks for making Stats and MyBrand free.

Thanks a lot team!!! Thats a great news and am sure will attract a lot bloggers now.

Could FeedBurner BE more awesome?! Thanks!!

Great! Google sure knows how to attract people.

woot, gonna activate that now

God, I love you guys. *sniff*

Great news! RSS can't do without Feedburner. Google has made more friends with this move.

Thanks for making it free, the feedburner is much more detailed and useful now!

Thank you FeedBurner.

Keep up the good work!

I've been a happy Feedburner member for a very long time. Congratulations again and thank you for the free services!

very very groovy... thnx

This is the best new that i have read since months !

What!? I paid my pro subscription last month!

...only kidding.... did I say ILG yet?

I'm naming my son Google.

OK - This is great. But boy do we need better stats! Monthly view is ok but imagine adding the reporting skills from Google Analytics to Feedburner feeds. Like printing how many item downloads for items over a variable date range :)

What happens to the subscribers who are already subscribed to http://feeds.feedburner.com/mydomain? Will the change be transparent to them? Does their feed continue to function correctly? Will your feed stats be negatively affected by the change, i.e. will FeedBurner continue to track Blogger/Blogspot, FeedBurner and MyBrand subscribers?

Hey Maskil,

Yep, it'll be completely transparent to anyone subscribed to the direct, original FeedBurner feed address. This address and the MyBrand address are one and the same in terms of the actual feed they access. Your feed stats will account for all access to your feed, regardless of whether it's redirected from an original address on your site, via MyBrand, or via direct subscription to that FeedBurner access. All roads lead to your content.

I've been using google for a long while now and it's great news that google is involved, but does this mean that feedburner's competitors are going to find it too difficult to compete?

Cool stuff, anything that anlyse full stats to the max is always great.

Thank for feedburner

Thank you thighmaster, thank you Feedburner

Thank for make it free ....
