Add “Email This Post” Feature using FeedBurner

FeedBurner envelopeFeedBurner is able to maintain as the top RSS feed management service for all its useful features. FeedFlare is one of them, which will allow you to add a link to an “Email This” form and links to other social media websites under each of your feed item.

The good news is you can actually use the FeedBurner powered “Email This” form not only in your feeds, but on your blog as well. In fact, the form can be used on just any websites, even those which are not using FeedBurner.

FeedBurner Email form

To implement this on your blog, just simply link to this URL with the appropriate parameter.

http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailFlare?itemTitle=POST-TITLE&uri=POST-URL

Replace POST-TITLE with the title of your blog post. Replace POST-URL with the URL of your blog post. The link will fetch your visitor to the emailing form.

For WordPress users, just paste the following code to anywhere in your blog template you want the “Email This” link to appear:

<a rel=”nofollow” href=”http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailFlare?itemTitle=<?php the_title(); ?>&uri=<?php the_permalink() ?>”>Email This Post</a>

For Blogger/Blogspot users, use this one:

<a rel=”nofollow” href=”http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailFlare?itemTitle=<$BlogItemTitle$>&uri=<$ BlogItemPermalinkURL$>”>Email This Post</a>

It will automatically insert your blog post’s title and URL, so no need to worry of that. This way you can save the hassle of looking for a WordPress plugin and setting it up.

    Services provided to publishers include traffic analysis and an optional advertising system. Though it initially was not clear whether advertising would be well-suited to the RSS format, authors now choose to include advertising in two thirds of FeedBurner’s feeds. Thanks.

    One frequent perceived technical problem with FeedBurner is the reduced number of subscribers being reported for the blogs using the service. This is not actually a technical problem with FeedBurner, but by the feed readers and aggregators that report to FeedBurner, as FeedBurner collects and tallies from those partners. Thanks.

    Service delivering duration specifies the promised and agreed maximum allowable period of time for effectively rendering all specified service consumer benefits to the triggering service consumer at his currently chosen service delivery point. Thanks.
