Top Ten Reasons why People Unsubscribe for your RSS feed

Posted on 27 February 2007 in Web & Web 2.0, Wordpress | No Comments »

  1. The author publishes too many posts. Readers can’t keep up and feel overwhelmed.
  2. Inconsistent or infrequent posts. Readers don’t know when to expect your next post.
  3. Author doesn’t broadcast the full RSS feed. This forces the reader to click and visit the blog, defeating the purpose of syndicating.
  4. Author changes direction. People loose interest because the author talks about things that no longer interest them.
  5. Lack of original content. Author invests too much time into reporting old news found on other blogs.
  6. No fire or spark in the content. The author is boring, negative and doesn’t make people feel good.
  7. Content is irrelevant. Author writes about one topic while readers expect to see another.
  8. Big Head Blog Syndrome. The author is over confident and comes across as being arrogant and goes overboard on self-promotion.
  9. The articles suck. The articles are hard to follow and readers fail to understand or grasp the point.
  10. The articles are novels. Aside from cost, there is a reason most commercials on TV are only 30 to 60 seconds in length. The length of your posts could kill your number of readers.
