Sticky Notes and Feed Subscriptions!Under Individual Posts (2):(Secret Tip)
Well, this is one thing my friend Rishi and I have been experimenting with recently. And it seemed to help. Appealing readers to subscribe via a Post-it sticky note :D It helps!

  30. I use RSS auto discovery –
    <link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” title=”Bin-Blog RSS Feed” href=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/bin-blog” />

    This one is very important.
