Top SEO Blogs on Google Reader

Comments | Posted by Lee Odden on Oct 14th, 2007 in Blogging |

As reported on Techcrunch, Scobelizer, Problogger and others, you can now see (albeit maybe not 100% accurately) how many Google Reader RSS subscribers there are for a particular blog. There appears to be some discrepancy between Google Reader subscribers reported by Google Reader and those numbers reported by Feedburner.

We’ve previously published a list of search marketing blogs by Feedburner RSS subscribers, so for fun I thought we’d post that same list of SEO blogs by Google Reader subscribers:

  • John Battelle’s Search Blog – 35,976
  • Search Engine Watch – 5,862
  • SEOmoz – 4,589
  • Search Engine Land – 3,910
  • Search Engine Roundtable – 2,843
  • Pronet Advertising – 2,308
  • ShoeMoney – 2,238
  • Search Engine Journal – 2,181
  • Online Marketing Blog – 1,952

Google Reader Tip: Show Only New Items

Comments | Posted by Thomas McMahon on May 17th, 2007 in Blogging, Google, Online Marketing, RSS |

If you’re an active feed reader, you may feel a bit overwhelmed by the number of feeds in your reader at times. An easy way to slim down the number without removing any, is to show only feeds that have new posts.

If you’re using Google Reader, click on the Show: updated link. This will then hide any feeds and folders that don’t have something new to offer. Plus, as you read through feeds, once you have all items marked as read, they disappear from the sidebar. Not only does it make you feel a bit better about the number of feeds you track but it also helps those that have unread items stand out a bit more.

Will Google Squash Digg?

Comments | Posted by Lee Odden on Dec 29th, 2006 in Google, Online Marketing, Search Industry News, Social Media |

There’s a bit of a meme going around regarding the potential use of Google Reader as an alternative to digg. The idea is to be able to view the the most popular shared feeds. Steve Mermelstein starts out with a post, “Google Reader Could be a Digg Killer” which caught the attention of prominent bloggers Steve Rubel and Robert Scoble with nice roundup by Jason Lee Miller from WebProNews.
