Ask YC: Issues with submitting blog to Drupal-powered communities.
1 point by adammichaelc on Oct 18, 2008 | hide | past | favorite
I currently use feedburner to track subscribers to my site and follow-up comments.

I like feedburner, but I’d like to change one of the things that it’s doing.

When I submit my blog feed to a community like this one (island.byu.edu), if a user tries to click the "original article" link that is under my article, they’re taken to a feedburner version of my page that re-directs to my main page. I want them to go directly to my page. For two reasons:

1. For SEO rankings, having your domain referred by .edu sites boosts your score and sends your blog higher in the rankings.

2. I like to track my traffic with Google Analytics, and if the feedburner problem isn’t fixed, I won’t be able to tell if people are coming from island or other similar sites where I submit my feed.

Any suggestions?
