1 - FeedBurner
FeedBurner is a free service that will publish the RSS feed from your blog and, most importantly, will provide you with subscriber counts and stats on your feed. Most bloggers already use FeedBurner, but many are not taking advantage of some of it features like email subscription options, customizable FeedFlare, and the FeedBurner ad network.
Other options: Feedblitz, Zookoda (email only)
2 - Google Analytics
Every serious blogger needs to be able to analyze the traffic that is coming to his or her blog. Google Analytics is the leading provider of free statistics to webmasters and bloggers. It will show you all of the standard stats like the number of visitors, pageviews, referral sources, plus it will also give you some stats you might not get from other programs, like your visitors’ geographic locations, screen resolutions, internet connection speed, browser, and more.
