Aside from the odd blog linked to from HN, the vast majority of blogs I most engage in are the ones to whose RSS feeds I subscribe and that regularly tick over.

Aside from the odd blog linked to from HN, the vast majority of blogs I most engage in are the ones to whose RSS feeds I subscribe and that regularly tick over. I can't remember ever getting to a blog as a result of a google search. For me, it's the opposite, though probably the most common way for me to find a post is through HN. I wonder how popular RSS feeds are for blogs, compared to sites like HN/Reddit, or search results.
