FeedBurner migrating to Google Accounts

Short URL: https://www.yugatech.com/go/yfam

I got an email from the AdSense Team announcing the migration of all FeedBurner account to Google Accounts on December 5, 2008. This is a required step as Google pushes to integrate all its services into one account.

Here’s a copy of the email I receive. Odd thing though is that I’ve actually already migrated to Google Accounts so this looks like a mass email to all AdSense Publishers:

Hi,

Weâ€™re contacting you to let you know that weâ€™ll be migrating your FeedBurner account yuga to your Google Account on 12/5/2008 .

Please rest assured, this change wonâ€™t disrupt your current feeds service. As part of this migration, all of your existing FeedBurner feeds will automatically redirect to Google feeds. You wonâ€™t lose any of your current subscribers in the process nor will this affect any email subscriptions.

All of your feeds will be moved to your new account and an initial batch of your most recent 30 daysâ€™ traffic stats will also be added. Your entire history, should it go beyond 30 days, will be added at a future date.

Once a part of the new Google FeedBurner systems, you’ll immediately be able to take advantage of our AdSense for feeds product. AdSense for feeds helps you monetize your feeds by delivering ads that are relevant to your content and your readers. Once migrated, you can start using AdSense by following these directions: https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=99647 .

Please note that this migration process is required for all publishers. If your FeedBurner ID or Google Account information is incorrect, please let us know before the date at the beginning of this message.

Sincerely,
Google AdSense Team
Google Inc.

Last August, after migrating my FeedBurner account to Google Account, I also changed my feed URL which resulted into over a thousand subscribers dropped from the list.

For seamless transition into Google’s new feeds, WordPress users may want to look into FeedBurner Feedsmith. This way, subscribers to the old feed are automatically directed to the new feed.
