Software to find number of RSS subscribers


I recently searched if I could get any software that can give me the details about the number of RSS subscribers for a selected Feedburner profile, But I couldn’t find any of them. So being an .NET enthusiast I developed by own application for this purpose.

Well here are some  screenshot of the Feed Counter I made. Note: I have made two versions of the software, One for computer with .NET installed and one for computers without .NET.

As the title says this option will get the feed details over a particular period of time. There are two dates displayed, the Start Date and End Date.

Then click on “Click to find out statistics”  to get the details over the given period and they will be displayed in a table like format. If you wish to export the details to Excel File, you can do so by clicking on the “Export to CSV” button.

    Interesting and useful but is there a way to expand the screen to view the result page ? as I am not able to do so ? Thanks in advance for the same and sharing the application for us.

      Thanks mate, Talking about expanding the form size, I dint enable it, so it defaults to this size. However I will fix this in my next release of Feed Count :)

  2. Very nice app. Many could use this to double check other bloggers or find out information. Will download and try it out.

  3. @Ramkumar: Great! im keeping this page bookmarked! i’ll do everything i can to support you, cause i need to see you swimming all the way to Sri Lanka! :D

    Nice tool.

    Sorting by hitting the head of the column doesn’t work correct with e.g. three digit and four digit counts.

    Great looking software. I’ve been relying on my FeedBurner dash board to pull out these stats until now. But this looks really powerful.
