Marktaandeel RSS-readers
Feedburner heeft gegevens bekend gemaakt over het marktaandeel van de verschillende readers. - RSS Client market is not yet consolidating, it's expanding. There were 409 different clients polling the top 800 FeedBurner feeds in September and now there are 719 different clients. FeedBurner actively catalogs the behavior and specifications for hundreds of these user-agents.
- Mobile RSS readers are already growing in popularity. While none yet crack our top 20 list, there are thousands of users of the FeedBurner Mobile Feed Reader alone.
- Of the feeds that we currently manage, in aggregate, RSS circulation is growing by about 1% every weekday. We are also adding to our total number of feeds under management at the rate of about 1% every weekday. If the widely discussed Pew research estimates are correct, we currently reach about 5% of the total RSS subscribers in the US, although we currently manage just over 1% of the world’s active feeds.
- We currently manage a significant percentage of the world's active podcasts with our SmartCast service. The podcasting phenomenon is accelerating. Enclosures are an important trend. More on all this in a separate post.
- We have been producing this list internally for quite a while, and it can and does change dramatically in a short period of time, both because of the changes in the sorts of feeds we manage and the changing trends in client popularity.
- This list is heavily skewed toward aggregators used on blog feeds, since most of our feeds are from blogs. This list might read quite differently for more traditional media feeds such as Reuters, NYT, CNET, etc. On a similar theme, individual publishers will notice that the overall market share may be wildly different from their own feed's market share. Simply removing our top 10 feeds from this data results in a wildly different market share list, possibly because of clients that ship with one or more of our top 10 feeds as a default. All of this pointing to the caution not to read too much into this single data point. We could make qualifications about everything on the list. Your mileage may vary, caveat emptor, mea culpa, c'est la vie.
