4. Then click on the RSS feed option (click Next)
5. Choose a name for your feed and the feed address (I usually make it the title of my feed with no spaces) (Click Next)
6. Now you should see your feed address (Click Next)
7. Click on "Clickthroughs" so you can see how many people click on your feed to read your blog (Click Next)
8. Now you should click on the "Publicize" tab at the top
