How To Hide Feedburner Feed Count

There are some bloggers who don’t want to show their Feedburner’s Feed Count to visitor. This may be due to their blogs still new and don’t have much subscribers. Normally these bloggers will simply replace the FeedCount widget with an a link to their Feedburner link.

Unfortunately, this method don’t really “hide” the feed count. Why i said so? It is because people can still view your feed count by using this url:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/~fc/feedID

Simply replace the feedID with the target Feedburner account ID and you will see the FeedCount widget appear in front of you.

So, how you hide this number before you have enough confident to show off your subscribers? Go to your Feedburner account page, and browse to the Publicize tab. After that, go to FeedCount and deactivate this service.

Tips: Bloggers are advised to hide their feed count before they get 300 subscribers.
