Feedburner.com is it beneficial?

I am wondering what is the advantage of submitting my blog feedburner.com. Does this just provide more opportunities to havd my posts reach readers? Or is there indexing or link opportunities there? Thanks for the feedback.

I use feedburner. It allows people to subscribe to the feed from my blog by RSS and email.
Works great!

Google owns feedburner.
I can't speak from personal experience, but I have to think publishing on feedburner will help your content be indexed. I would highly recommend testing it.
Feedburner does have an established user base and is searchable as well. It seems like a great opportunity for exposure.
With the above noted, you ultimately want to offer great content on your site and have users come to your site for everything. The reality is RSS is available from almost every major site, and readers have the ability to set up a RSS feed for your site even if you don't set one up and do not want to allow it.

Some people argue that it's better to host your own feed, but I like Feedburner as has some good customization options, gives you access to some nice stats as well as giving potential subscribers a number of ways to subscribe to your feed.

JugglingCats.com - How did they do it?
https://www.jugglingcats.com/ has a domain authority of 30. That seems crazy to me, especially for a site that looks like it hasn't been updated in years, has maybe 300 words, and uses Comic Sans for goodness sake! Yes, I see that their domain has been around since 2002, and they have about 130+ inbound domains. But is that enough? What else do you think has contributed to their success? Or is it success? Should they, for their age, be much higher? I'm very curious as to your take on it.

Is healthygallbladder.com a spammy site?
Hello Moz Community! We're getting many back links with random anchor text (completely irrelevant) from a website called healthygallbladder.com and various subdomains under that domain. Has anyone else come across this website? I can't seem to load the pages at all. It always comes up with a bandwidth exceeded message.

How come www.ifundinternational.com beat us despite that most links seems VERY shady?
How can ifundinternational.com with TONS of spammy links rank 70 keywords in TOP20 in the competitive hard money lending industry? They seem to go AGAINS ALL WHITE HAT SEO and all rules by Panda, Penguing and Hummingbird. Just frustrating that they get away with it. What to do about it?

Why is Business.com a valuable link when they are all nofollow?
Earlier today, I received a $50 off coupon for a Business.com listing. Back when I was really learning about directories, lots of people recommended getting one of these listings because editors actually review it to make sure the website linked is of good quality. Even the SEOmoz Directory Guide regards it as a good link. Now, it seems like every outbound link from Business.com has a 'nofollow' tag right when they link to the target website. Furthermore, the actual business listing doesn't even link to the website! Let me take, for example, web design companies: http://www.business.com/internet/web-design/ This directory has tons of 'nofollow' links. On top of that, if you take any of the companies listed and do a search for their business page, the business page doesn't even have a link to their website! That doesn't exactly seem like it's worth $300 a year... Any chance there is something I'm missing here? I'm not fully understanding this, it seems.

Is the whoisbusinesslistings.com directory a good place to get a link?
I stumbled across the whoisbusinesslistings.com directory and noticed that it's home page is page rank 4 and in the listing it allows do follow links to your site. They don't have pricing listed on the site though which scares me. Only a link to a sales person. Anyone know how much they charge and if it would be worth looking into? Thanks mozzers! Ron10

Are you using ArticleBase.com for link building?
I'm digging my way through my competitors' link profiles on OSE and came across one that had been using a site called ArticleBase.com Apparently you can publish articles for free and browse other published articles for usage on your own site (provided you follow their TOS). It actually seems like a nifty idea. I'm wondering if anyone has utilized this site for re-publishing content and building external links. Worth the effort? Thanks!

Our competitor, Gaiam.com is able to get links back from Youtube. How are they doing this?
When I use Open Site Explorer to look at our competitor's link profile, I notice that Gaiam.com is getting lots of valuable links from their videos on Youtube. We have a lot of videos on Youtube as well and are not receiving links back. What is the secret? Our website address is fully shown in the profile and we seem to match them - what are we missing? Thanks
