I use FeedBlitz to provide email subscriptions to my blog. A surprising number of people actually use this option - roughly 150 of 3,000 subscriptions. I get a couple sign-ups for email every week and about every other week someone unsubscribes. Feedblitz allows the user to specify a reason. Most often it's either "no longer relevant" or "subscribed in another way."
Today I got my first cancellation with the reason "Too many updates" ...
It actually, made me smile.
I've become part of the problem. :)
Chances are high that the subscriber just made a random selection and clicked "Unsubscribe"
ReplyDeleteI often get the reason as "ISP requested removal" - not sure what that means.
