All of the feeds for all of My Blogs and Podcast’s are at feeds.podacstpartnership.net not paulcolligan.com podcasttools.com etcetera. Why do I do this? I do this a. because there is a great little marketing capacity I have here by calling everything within Podcast partnership but the same time, it keeps me form being having my arms completely and toward tied to FeedBurner. I definitely use FeedBurner, I recommend you use them for their statistics. For what they bring to the table, the stability, the fact that they keep on top of things that you do not have to, etcetera. But instead of having everything of yours at feeds.feedburner.com, I recommend you have it at feeds dot whatever the main name you want to have it dot com, now how you do this, we log onto FeedBurner and we click on the my account link up here. Will take you to this page, and there is an option on this area called MyBrand. Go ahead click on that. Now, this is a pro service that FeedBurner use to charge for, but it is now free.
It is a very simple process as you can see here. It is only three steps. Step number one, make sure your own the controlled the domain name and you can manage its DNS records. I will show you how I do that, most of your web services, web hosting programs allows you to do that very, very simple stuff. Create a CNAME. Now let me show you how easy it is to create a CNAME.
We will go over to my domain hosting. I use one place for everything.com, 1PlaceForEverything.com and they have what they called total DNS. When I click on total DNS, I can go in and I can very easily click on add a new CNAME record, and just like they say to do here, previous name is feeds, the CNAME is feeds.feedburner.com. so I could do this now we would be good to go.
If we go back, you will see that is exactly what we have in place here, wait a second, always fun recording live with an internet connections that always seem to act funny while you are recording live. Pop up here in a second, you will see under total DNS control. They already got that in place. Feeds is at feeds.feedburner.com you click on it just like I showed you. So that is step one, very, very easy to do. Most of your web domain name systems provide this with that similar easy process, again, I use 1placeforeverything but you can use what ever you want and then you tell them what the domain is. I say it is in everything at feeds.PodcastPartnership.net and that is it. So all you have to do, ones you save and make it active, you are good to go and it will start redirecting everything to, what ever you tell it too. Now, feeds.PodcastParnership.net there is the one for my blog, now it should be told. It is also still feeds@feedburner.com/hulkhoganblog and same exact thing I just do not mark at that.
So you definitely want to utilize this service, your brand is awesome, it is free, it is part of FeedBurner, it helps brand you not them. There is really no reason why you do not want to use this and of course if tragedy happen and FeedBurner went down all your feeds would not go with it because you own your own domain. So there we go, that is how we do it. I will let you go bye.
