Is Rss feeds becoming a joke

I’ve notice something very interesting. I was visiting some blogs looking for advertisement when I noticed alot of these small blog’s with very little traffic have alot of rss readers.
Do I think It’s fake readers? Yes
Because there was a time when you could go to a blog and notice they had very little Rss readers and by that you would be able to judge the site.
But not no more. I think it would be a great idea for someone to come out with a system for judging blogs.
The old system use to be Google PR system but since all the Google commotion over how you advertise that system is looking grim for all Make Money Online bloggers

It is very easy to tell whether or not the image is fake. Just right click the image and see where its being hosted. If its on the correct feedburner page, then yes its real. If its hosted somewhere else its fake. Just right click on my sampleaday rss feed and see if its fake. Sample A Day

well not that easy because there are services out there that will give you 200 rss subscribers for like $100 bucks then how do you tell. The way I seem to only figure out is by seeing that they have to much rss members for the traffic there getting
I have been thinking of this for a while and I’m preparing for a similar post with details to back it up, but I don’t want it to leak out the strategies…LOL

I may be mistaken, but feed traffic doesn’t track to analytics or any normal tracking source. To view traffic from feeds you have to log in to the blog’s feedburner account.
I don’t need to track there RSS feed to find out how much traffic a blog gets so when they have about 300 rss feeds and get like 100 visiters he may be cheating
I believe that whatever you’re using to track visitors does not count the feed traffic at all… so they may get the vast majority of their traffic from their feed.
maybe that’s tru I’m not talking ahout every blog it just in my personal opinion that these sites should not have that many rss feeds and that little traffic. example: I seen i site with like 400 rss subscribers with a 1,000,000 alexa ranking that looks funny to me i don’t know about you.
