RSS Feed Dies Here?!?
Yup, here I am resurrecting this site and posting about what I am learning about Social Media and such, and I have managed to kill the RSS (Really Simple Syndication) for this site, which is at least ironic, but very infuriating as well. I first noticed that my previous post Scrapers and How to Trap [...]
One Character and Entire RSS Feed Dead
So for the past two days my Feedburner RSS feed has been dead, which means I am missing my 1000 per day hits there for Google (so a very bad thing). I only realized that this was dead at the end of the first day, and then madly tried to figure out why there were [...]
Dead RSS Feeds
- Comments Off
More strangeness with the Financial Site with my RSS feed from feedburner dieing off. It is not just feedburner but the feed check utility also times out on my server, so I have sent yet another support request to my friends at Dreamhost. Meanwhile my Feedburner subscriber count drops like a stone thanks to my [...]
Google RSS Doubles Things Up

John Chow dot Com comes through again with Google Offers Adsense for RSS Feeds, which is great. I hadn’t noticed it on my Adsense page, but I am now signing up for it and hopefully this [...]
New WordPress 2.6.1, but not yet
- Comments Off
After living through the last upgrade of WordPress and having it break this site and the advertising on my financial site, I figured I would wait a little while until I am sure all of my plug ins and themes are ok’ed on this “dot release” from our friends at WordPress. Income this week has [...]
Readership Growing Again
- Comments Off
Getting back near 300 for RSS feed readers at Canadian Financial Opinions, which is good to see. No real sign of the page rank changing, but I did send in an appeal e-mail asking for them to reconsider or re-look at what my rank actually is. Given I am now running WordPress 2.5, I am [...]
