Update the Feed Links on Your Header Section

Today’s video post is about making sure that the feed links on your header section are also pointing to your Feedburner feed.

Here is a quick summary:

• This is a common mistake among bloggers that use Feedburner
• Basically they update the RSS icons or links on the body of the website, but forget the header section, which is used by the autodiscovery feature on most browsers
• The problem comes from the fact that people will end up subscribing to different feeds, your subscriber stats might become incorrect and so on
• You can solve this on WordPress by editing the header.php file
• First of all remove the last 2 of the 3 “alternate” links that you will find there. Then simply update the URL of the first one, removing the WordPress PHP code and inserting your Feedburner URL instead.
