• Check Your Links
   When you register, use your main blog feed URL vs. your FeedBurner URL. If you hover over your CommentLuv links and notice they are pointing to http://feedproxy.google.com as opposed to the direct URL for your article, you will need to go into your FeedBurner account and under the feed’s Analyze tab, click on the Configure Stats under Services. Un-check the “Item link clicks — optimize for” box. This should change it to direct links to your article.

   Why switch?
   
   Good question. FeedBlitz is a great FeedBurner alternative because FeedBlitz:
   
  • Has greater email design flexibility (e.g. add your own sponsorships to the mailing);
   
  • Has express, weekly, monthly and manual scheduling options;
   
  • Lets you send an email newsletter blast to your list without a blog or feed entry;
   
  • Supports custom fields, personalization and segmentation;
   
  • Has autoresponders for drip marketing or simple incentive mailings;
   
  • Lets you customize the landing page a subscriber ends up at once they confirm;
   
  • Offers extensive email reports for click, bounce, open tracking and more;
   
  • Automatically reminds subscribers that haven't confirmed to do so;
   
  • Is fully compatible with FeedBurner reports, statistics and item tracking (i.e. you don't lose any RSS feed metrics);
   
  • Is fully supported and frequently updated.
