FEEDSTER.
A Pomegranium venture
POLLING LIVE

41–72K machines a day never stopped reading this domain. Now their reading works for you.

For nineteen years the internet's machines have reported to this domain — feed readers, ping services, crawlers, every day, never once stopped. If your work depends on knowing what the feeds are saying, this is being built for you: intelligence read across that flow, from the one domain the flow never left. The river is ours since 2003. Nobody can copy it, buy it, or catch up to it.

Requests a day — measured flow, machines not people

Measured November 1, 2026, in the owner's Ahrefs and Cloudflare accounts. Human visits here are negligible and unmeasured — we say so on the page where we sell placements: what Feedster has is authority and machine flow, not an audience.

The business

Three lanes, stated at their actual state. Nothing below is described as further along than it is.

Building

Stop reading feeds. Start reading answers.

Feed readers subscribe to sources; nobody reads across the whole flow. Feedster is being built to: polling who fetches what, across the domain's own flow, and turning it into answers — who is moving, what is rising, what the machines are paying attention to before people are.

Specimen — format sample

A morning answer, in the shape it arrives —

The flow, one sampled day (the table below): 63,258 requests

The loudest voice: WordPress pingbacks, ≈6,204 — the blog ecosystem still announces itself here

In the top ten: an AI company's crawler, ElevenLabs, 1,684

The read: the machines that map and answer the web report to this domain every day. This card is the format; the product is the reading, daily.

Measuring

Decisions priced off a counted answer, not a guess.

The polling already runs; what it counts is being turned into the questions a buyer would pay to have answered. Positioned, not yet packaged — nothing here is for sale today.

Held as an option

Positioned if the market arrives. Dependent on nothing.

If machine readers ever pay for standing in a flow like this one, this domain is where they already are. The option costs nothing to hold and is not the plan.

Placements

A separate thing, kept separate. While the business above builds, the domain's authority is offered as a small link-placement program — the first cash in, not the business itself. What it is, what it costs, and what it does not buy are stated in one place only: the box at the bottom of this page.

Who polled Feedster yesterday

These are not statistics about a website. They are yesterday's visitors — the machines that decide what the internet reads — still knocking on this door after nineteen years, because nobody ever told them to stop. The business above is being built to finally answer.

A first read of the request stream — the top user agents over one day, 63,258 requests sampled. It is a first read, not a census, and it is labeled that way — the measured set above is the full segmentation's; this table is the read that started it.

WhoWhat they areRequests
WordPress (XML-RPC)Pingbacks from the blog ecosystem — sites still notifying Feedster of new posts≈6,204

The RSS era's machinery never stopped calling. Until now it got a page that answered none of it. That is the gap this venture exists to close.

Coming soon — who we are building toward

When the readers below are live on this domain, the flow they represent becomes part of what customers get.

The table above is who already polls. Beyond it, the record names four readers we are building toward: Feedly (a discovery surface, and a reader service) · Feedspot (discovery) · Inoreader and NewsBlur (reader services, where people actually read). Building toward means the mechanism is specified and the intake is not yet submitted; no figures attach to any of them. The rest stand as classes until the endpoint census names them: feed and search indexes · syndication consumers · and the legacy readers — the ones who knew the first Feedster and dropped it at the 2007 shutdown, who we are re-introducing ourselves to. Names join this list only when there is a live motion behind them — a submission made, or the compatibility build under way. The census that names them is specified, and ready to run.

History, as it happened

This name has been a company, a casualty, and a quarter-million-dollar negotiation — and through all of it, the flow never left. What is being resurrected is not a domain. It is the only feed name the machinery itself refused to forget.

2003. Feedster launches in San Francisco as an RSS feed search engine — one of the first, indexing the early blogosphere in near real time. It raises roughly $6.45 million from Selby Venture Partners, Omidyar Network, Mitsui, Felicis, and angels.

2007. The company closes. The domain remains, and the internet's address books never update — the polling continues, unattended, for nineteen years.

2020–22. A guest-post and link desk operates on the domain. In 2022 the domain itself is negotiated — offers reach $100K; the owner asks $230–250K; no sale. The domain stays.

2026. Pomegranium resurrects Feedster as a venture: the placement program first, the feed business behind it. This page replaced a one-page placeholder the owner had set years earlier.

Built inside Pomegranium

Feedster is one venture in a constellation the holdco builds the same way — each company born linked into the estate. The others: Pomegranium, the holdco itself · Brandscaped, the branding and design company · Holisticly Well, concierge medicine · ContentHow.

The feed business: info@feedster.com · Placements run through the box at the bottom of this page.

The placement box

A separate offer — link placements

One purchase, a full year handled. While the lanes build, the domain's authority works for a small number of buyers: a followed placement in real content on this property, live for twelve months — bought once, working all year. What you are buying is a reference from a DR 65 property with 2.9K referring domains: standing it would take years to build, working for you from the week it's placed.

PlacementTermsPrice
Inner page12 months, prepaid, followed, in content$300 / year
Inner pages ×3Same terms, staggered$285 each
Inner pages ×5Same terms, staggered$270 each
Inner pages ×10Same terms, staggered$240 each
HomepageSame terms · capped at 3 placements$500 / year

You know the whole cost today, and the risk inside the term is ours: renewal is at the same rate you see now — and if a placed page goes down inside your term, the placement is repaired, replaced, or refunded pro-rata. No rental clock. No renewal surprise. No hostage pricing.

Your link keeps good company: about ten placements across the whole domain, staggered over weeks, in screened niches only. The smallness is what you are paying for — it is what keeps the placement worth having.

What a placement does not buy: traffic.

Buy this with your eyes open: it will not send you visitors, and anyone who tells you a link here will is selling you a story. Ahrefs measures zero organic search traffic to this domain, and human visits are negligible — unmeasured, and not part of this offer. What is real is the authority profile above, and that is the whole of the offer.

Is this a link farm?

No. A link farm sells volume; this program sells about ten placements a year, screened, staggered, and renewed at a stated rate. The domain's authority is the asset the whole venture is built on — spending it down for link volume would be eating the seed.

What happens at month twelve?

You renew at the same rate, or the placement comes down. No auto-renewal, no hostage renewal pricing.

This is the mechanism: give us your email and where the link would point, and the full offer — rates, terms, payment link — is in your inbox instantly. Placed within five business days of payment. No list, no follow-up sequence. The offer is the email.

No list, no follow-up sequence. The offer, once.
