You need to master the topic in this post to be a successful internet marketer:
Blog

Display Feed
One mistake that some blogs make is have their RSS feed link appearing too far down in the footer of the design. This is wrong – if you want to attract subscribers – just put up the FeedCount as well as the subscribe box on the top of your sidebar to attract more people.

Use Multiple Methods to Promote Your Feed
Try different methods to attract users. By this I mean is try adding more options for your readers like “Subscribe to My Feeds” in the end of each post, a Subscribe page may be. Try experimenting.


Tell Them Why They Should Subscribe

You can see a “Why Subscribe” in my sidebar, yes you too should place text like this in order to make your readers aware what benefits would they receive after subscribing to the blog.

Offer RSS to Email Services
Many readers forget to add your RSS feeds to their readers, or simply don’t get the time to frequently visit their RSS Readers. Ask them to subscribe to your Feed Email service i.e. when you make a new blog post they are alerted via email. Use services like Feedburner and Feeblitz.

Give Your Feed Readers a Bonus
Host contest or give them freebies just to subscribe to your blog. I recently ran a contest on Techuse. So give your readers a tempting offer to subscribe.

Reveal The Truth
Readers like to know the truth about you and the blog, so post real facts. By this I mean to say that you make sure that you tell the ture details about your identity and make sure you post the true and valid stats to your blog. This will make the readers trust you and hence subscribe to your blog.

Plugins
Use plugins like GreetBox and SubscribeRemind to make people aware that you have an active RSS Feed and ask them to subscribe to your blog, if they liked your posts and internet marketing.

To your success
