rssHugger: Increase RSS Subscribers?

Let me start this post off by saying that I have NOT used rssHugger yet. If you’re interested in hearing what it is keep reading. But if not then this post isn’t for you. Normally I wouldn’t make a post about something I haven’t tried but in this case I had to. You’ll have to keep reading to find out why.

rssHugger is an RSS directory. It was created to help blogger promote their blogs.

The way it works is after you get your account all set up you are listed in their directory in a few categories. But what makes this directory different is that there is also a top 100 list. The feeds are ranked by whoever sends the most traffic to rssHugger and it is reset each month.

For instance, if you were to join today and you send the most traffic to RSS Hugger this month you’d be listed as #1 on the list. Theoretically, with all this traffic coming everybody should be able to get new subscribers (I haven’t tried it yet so I can’t back that up).

The reason why I haven’t tried it yet is because before you get listed in the directory you have to either make a blog post about rssHugger or pay $20 to be included. Obviously I chose the first. So this is my blog post.

They set it up that way to keep spammers out and so it has a viral effect. Whether it works out the way they’ve planned or not I don’t know. But it only took a few minutes to set up so I figured why not? If this sounds interesting to you (or if you just want to give me a little boost :)) check out rssHugger.
