Feedburner is an excellent feed management service by Google. It gives you statistics about how many people are subscribed to your RSS feeds and popular feeds etc. As you can imagine there are also a host of plugins that help you use Feedburner with WordPress. Let’s take a look at some good plugins:
Integrating Feedburner with WordPress
Feedburner FeedSmith will easily redirect your site’s RSS page to the Feedburner feeds page, you just need to set the Feedburner URL from the plugin options within WP-Admin.
Feedburner Stats for the Dashboard
Feed Stats for WordPress will bring in all the Feedburner stats into your Dashboard for convenience.
Stats for your feed can be viewed from the “Feed Stats” page in the “Dashboard” section of WordPress.
Currently, this plugin allows you to view the following types of statistics:
- Subscribers
- Hits
- Reach (see the FAQ section for more information about this)
- Item Clickthroughs
- Item Views
These two plugins are all you need for integrating Feedburner with WordPress.

This is a wonderful article, Given so much info in it, These type of articles keeps the users interest in the website, and keep on sharing more … good luck
Feedstats for WordPress (reworked for PHP 5.3) doesn’t work any more now, and isn’t been updated. Something to do with Google changing a few things around. Which is a shame.
Thanks for the info. Just a heads up – these links are a bit out of date.
The google link does not link to a specific plugin, but rather a link that queries WordPress.org’s plugin directory with the search term “feedburner” – so your link just lets people search wordpress.org for “feedburner” after several more clicks…
Both plugins have been abandoned and revamped.
You now want:
– Feedburner feedsmith extend (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feedburner-setting/); and
– Feed Stats for WordPress (reworked for PHP 5.3)(https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feed-stats-plugin-for-wordpress-reworked/)
You link to these old ones in several posts, so you might want to revise them all.
Cheers
