How to feel frustrated reading blogs
Jan 20th, 2008 | By william | Category: BloggingNever try this at home.
Subscribe to a number of high volume blog sites and try to finish reading. You will be never able to finish and the frustration will hit you.
Every day these sites try to stuff you more than 30 entries. If you have left the RSS reader a couple of days, you probably need to check them off as read or do a quick scan of it. Using google reader is recommended as you can quickly scan them. However, you will find reading is no longer fun and you may end up with unsubscribing such blog sites to get the peace of mind…
If you are a blog site owners reading this, you may consider how you can help relieve the stress of your subscribers by limiting number of post per day (5 posts per day can be much better than 30) or provide category feeds for subscription or you may lose quite a number of frustrated subscribers like me.
I would say category feeds is the way to go for huge blogs with many posts a day.
I can totally relate. I currently have 1384 feeds subscribed and even when I try to unsubcribe and trim them, I’m still stuck around that number.
As a webmaster, I can’t deal with writing too many posts since they are usually a bit lengthy. I’d be dead if I post 30 a day!
