A Favor

The vast majority of my readers are subscribers rather than direct visitors to the site. Unfortunately, the site host only shows the numbers of direct visitors. If you're a subscriber and you're reading this, could you come to the post directly, this once, so I can get an idea of how many people are out there and seeing this? Thanks for your help.

RSS subscriber in UK. It is great to have your posts back!
[DM: Thanks for writing in!]
Aren't the people who subscribe to your RSS feed counted? Or is that what you're referring to by "subscribers"?
[DM: Yes, that's what I meant by subscribers. The only info my site gives me is of people who are reading the posts the old-fashioned way, on the web page itself.]
Howdy. Long time reader, although much less active in chess than I used to be! I subscribe via RSS. Thanks for starting back up, I very much enjoy your takes on the games and appreciate your insightful comments on the games! Cheers from NYC
[DM: Lived there for years myself. Hope the chess clubs, especially the Marshall, manage to survive the COVID era.]
Subscriber visiting!
Hi Dennis,
How do I subscribe? I don't see a subscribe button anywhere.
Thanks for posting!
Aggregated RSS feeds are much more efficient for me. I've never looked into it, but maybe there's a way to see how many subscribers are receiving the feed?
[DM: There is, I think: pay my blog host more per month, with no further value. :)]
Hi Dennis,
Been missing you - so glad you're back!
