The Miracle Of The Mystical Feed Count Spike

under Marketing
By Carl on January 19, 2008

Yesterday, I posted an article about a massive heart stopping mystical feed count spike. The stats showed that my subscribers went through the roof, skyrocketed from 770 to 6,856.

I gave time to look deep what was happening and it looks like several people caught the jump too. Here’s a thread from the feedburner community.

From the looks of it, the stats are now back to normal (There are still other blogs who still have the jump though), but not only normal…

I gained an additional 130+ subscribers in just one day because of that mystical feed count spike.

How did that happened?

Well, here’s the thing…

“People love to join bandwagons.”

When they saw that my blog has 6,856 subscribers, they quickly jumped in and subscribed. The funny thing was, it’s the same old blog!

So the lesson here is when you have big things to show, don’t hesitate to show it.

An example of showing big things on my blog is my advertise page. When prospects saw that real people gave me real testimonials, they quickly made the decision and ate all the spots on my blog.

Man this is awesome (and a bit evil). BTW are all of your spots reserved for next month? I can hack feedBlitz to give you 5000 more subscribers and the ads will be reserved until next year :)

Carl - that is a funny story - I am sure you heart did take a jump when you saw the spike. Glad to see it has been corrected and you have seen positive results out of the issue.

Hey Carl. I didn’t see your rss subscriber count jump, nor did mine which was odd. I wished I had the same luck as you lol.

I noticed the jump to it was crazy. I went from 6 readers to 150 overnight then it went back to 14. I know I dont have the reader base you do and my site is only a month old.
