“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

Just put “SSPX”
in the title of a link. People will cancel subscriptions and newbies will be pulled out of the woodwork to look at your site.
Other bloggers will afirm this.
I subscribe through Google Reader. I’m not sure if that shows up in the stats you’re checking, Father, but I would guess there is a fair number getting their wdtprs fix through this means.
I also subscribe through Google Reader.
Your stats may not reflect the true traffic, For example, do they include counts for those of us who “subscribe” through Mozilla Thunderbird?
I lost feedburner widget to WDTPRS some time ago and will have to put it back in my sidebar.
It may not be a feedburner issue, but Hugo has a point: Titles have a lot to do with traffic, I’ve found.
I will consider subscribing if you tell me what an RSS Feed is. When I click on the “subscribe” button I am given a whole bunch of options, presumably for software, that I need to subscribe to the feed. Would someone explain what this is for and what I should download? I am hesitant to clog my computer up with new software unless it is really necessary.
Father:
I’m not sure I understand your post. Do you require us to re-subscribe to the Feedburner feed? (I am currently subscribed to wdtprs.com/blog/feed ).
Thanks,
Mark
I use a proprietary RSS system which I’m still developing. I noticed recently that my feeds were off not only on your site, Father, but others as well. I don’t yet know the answer, but I’ll find out!
Father,
FWIW, the aggregator that I use for my BlackBerry hasn’t updated since Wednesday.
