We passed the 10000 RSS Subscribers Mark


Ghacks has finally passed the 10000 RSS Feed Readers mark which is a huge milestone for this website. I’m pretty excited about this figure and hope that it will stabilize there quickly. It usually goes down a bit on weekends and comes back on weekdays.

The Feed Analysis that I performed about three months ago was dead on the point though. You might remember that it offered predictions of the coming three, six and twelve months and it predicted 10000 RSS Feed Readers in less than three months.

I wanted to reach 10000 RSS Readers before the third anniversary of Ghacks which is on October 3rd and I’m quite happy that I reached all the goals that I wanted in this year early on. The next big figure that I want to reach in 12 months is 20000 RSS Feed Readers. That’s a huge number and I have to get some good coverage on popular websites to reach it.

Do you have any suggestions on how to increase the RSS Feed Reader count further? I do not want to raise it the way many make money blogs did it who gave away prices to random new feed subscribers. I want real readers who like Ghacks and join the discussion every now and then.

    I love this site and I’m glad you’re doing well. I’m still dwindling at just over 1k… but my site is only 5 months old — so I have to be patient :)

    Just keep doing what you’re doing. There’s a reason people are signing up.

    I personally would like to see some Ubuntu or KDE specific posts. I know that a lot of people are into Macintosh as well. Those are two areas that you could expand into, but not at the expense of your current work.
