I was able to increase my blog's RSS readers from 0 to 65 within 2 and a half days with StumbleUpon! I am getting a lot of traffic from StumbleUpon daily and none were subscribing to my feed but i used a method to make it 65 within 2 days! You can read my blog post how to increase your subscribers.

It's interesting how that stripe made such a difference over the RSS box that's right at the top of the page anyway. I'm guessing that if people get used to seeing that bar on top of many WP blogs, they'll begin to ignore it, so everyone use it while you can! The wp plugin: http://www.maxblogpress.com/plugins/msa/
That won't happen. There are still many non-geeks people out there. There are stripes like that on many non-WP sites and still people are attracted by them. No need to worry.
From experience and tests I've done in the past, these stripes get the most clicks compared to other popups/slidedowns/banners/links....etc. So yeah, it is a very handy plugin that uses the no.1 non-annoying attention grabbing ad technique, to drive visitors to some other page/offer you have. Started using it too!
pretty neat script, but i hate the powered by link though , . . . mystery used it well, but it does not stand out much imo
If you have noticed, johnchow's blog doesn't have the "powered by" link! I wonder if he manipulated the code.
Dude he didn't manipulated it. He bought the license which costs $37. I'll be getting it soon. I got an email. Here's what i got: Edit: Just bought the pro version. Now i'll remove powered by thingy!
