Complete FeedBurner feed transfer to other FeedBurner account



Feedburner logoFeedBurner introduced new feature to transfer complete RSS feeds from FeedBurner account to other FeedBurner account. This transfer of feeds includes complete RSS and email subscribers.

This feed transfer feature is very useful if you want to move your all feeds to new account or in case if you sell your blog you can transfer all feeds to new website owner’s FeedBurner account. This complete feed transfer process is very simple. You just need to provide the email address to whom you want to transfer your feeds. The new feed owner will get a notification and a new link for completing this feed transfer request. This feed transfer request is valid only for 72 hours and if the new owner not accepts this request in 72 hours you need to issue a new request.

Here is the simple 3 step feed transfer procedure:

1) Sign in to your account.
2) Click the title of the feed you want to send to someone else in the My Feeds list, and then click “Transfer Feed…” You will then be prompted to enter the email address of the publisher to whom you wish to transfer this feed.
3) Enter this email address and submit the form.

Transfer will get complete when new publisher accepts this transfer request.

Unfortunately above steps will not applicable for feed transfer if you are part of FeedBurner ad network. In this case you require creating new feed transfer address like “feeds.feedburner.com/newfeed” which is accepted by new owner with same feed name.
