RSS Statistics/Traffic Metrics

Question

I want to track how much traffic I'm getting on an RSS feed that is set up using .Net 2.0 & SQL Server.

Is there an industry standard on what metrics I should use, for example, page hits?

Answer 1

Feedburner analysis gives you statistics like:
_{(source: blogperfume.com)}

<sub>(source: blogperfume.com)

(source: blogperfume.com)</sub>

Answer 2

I agree, FeedBurner is probably your best option, almost all large sites use it.

Answer 3

Instead of tracking it yourself, I would encourage you to use a service like FeedBurner. Even if you don't want to use a 3rd party service it will give you an idea of what other people track for RSS feeds.
