In this tutorial I am going to run through the process of setting up a new RSS feed in your Feedburner account.
The first step is to make sure you are logged into your feedburner account.
On the Feedburner home page you will see a text area where you have the choice of adding your blog’s URL or the link to the RSS feed from your blog.
Although you can’t see it in the image below I just added the URL of my test blog, and as you will see as we move forward in this tutorial, Feedburner has recognized that my site has two available feeds.
The two main feeds Feedburner has found for my site are, one for the content source, and another for the comments on the posts.
If your Blog has multiple feeds, you may want to enter in the specific link of the RSS feed.
You can get the specific link of your RSS feed by right clicking on the RSS icon on your blog and saving the link, usually the option for saving a link is Save Link As.
In this set up, I want to add the blog’s content feed, but the steps outlined here will work with setting up both feeds.
After you have decided on the specific feed you want to add to your Feedburner account, click on the Next button to continue.
In the next step, Feedburner will pull in the details of your site, This will help to recognize which feed is from which site, this becomes especially useful if you have multiple sites.
The name of your feed is usually taken from your blog title. Click on the Next button to continue.
As yo can see from the image below Feedburner has now produced a brand new link for our RSS feed. This is the link we need when adding Feedburner to our Blog.
Click the Next button to Continue.
Next we are asked if we would like to add additional features to our Feedburner feed setting.
Feedburner by default provides great features, but you can also add more in the way of stats and analytics if you want.
Click on the I want more! check box.
Click Next to continue.
And finally in the next screen is where you see that you have successfully added your feed into your Feedburner account.
It’s also on this page that you can download any widgets and plugins that will help you in adding the Feedburner link into your website.
But as far as adding your blog to your Feedburner account goes, thats all there is to it.
