<p>As Graham and Delaney stated, it’s all about SOCIAL PROOF.</p>
<p>Anyone with a reasonable feed subscriber count and wanting to grow their blog readership would be crazy not to display it. </p>
<p>Sure it’s an ego boost. Sure I love checking the count on my blogs. What really counts is that it shows other people read my blog, which is so important in an ever expanding blogosphere with more and more bloggers fighting for attention. </p>
<p>Although if you just started blogging and your count hasn’t reached triple figures yet I would hold off displaying your feedcount because the social proof can have a negative effect too. No one will subscribe because no one else is subscribing.</p>
