FeedBurner Adds Support for Transferring Feeds

Yesterday, FeedBurner quietly announced the ability to transfer your feeds from one owner to another without having to submit a request for transfer and going through the transfer process via FeedBurner staff.  Now, it is almost completely automated.

FeedBurner - Transferring Feeds

Feed Details Page 

Within each feed details area, you’ll now find a Transfer Feed link, which will allow you specify an email address you wish to transfer the feed to.  You can only send feeds from your account to others, not the other way around.  If the recipient does not accept the transfer within 72 hours, the request will be denied on your side.

Step-by-step procedure:

  1. Sign in to your account.
  2. In the My Feeds list, click the title of the feed you want to send to someone else, then click “Transfer Feed”.
  3. A drop down box will now appear, further explaining what you will be doing.  Input the email address in the box, then submit the form.

This is a feature that will come in handy especially for blogs with multiple authors and for blog publishers who are looking to transfer ownership of their blog.
