Sorry for sounding dramatic but I lost 150 RSS subscribers when I moved to WP this week.
Also, those who were following through the Google Friends Connect widget can no longer see my updates.
I'm completely stumped.
If they re-add me as smittenbybritain.com they can't see my updates but if they put /feed on the end, they can see them. Don't understand why that is.
Does anyone have a clue?
Thanks so much.

Sorry to hear about your trouble Melissa. So sad to lose subscribers because of a platform change.
I don't know much about transferring to WP from Blogger, but I do have experience with WP's RSS Feeds, so I might be able to help you with that.
Every WordPress blog has a built in feed for posts AND comments. Whenever you want to add your blog's feed to a service (like Facebook for example), you will need to give your RSS Feed address. You can learn all about WP RSS Feeds here: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds
WordPress assigned you a feed: "http:smittenbybritain.com/feed" Looks like you've set your feed up with Feedburner and the address is: "http://feeds.feedburner.com/smittenbybritain/FiFf" Make sure you update your Feedburner account to reflect your new WP feed. To get Google Connect working, make sure you enter your new WP feed or updated Feedburner feed address.
I hope this helps.
Since the title of this post is so dramatic, I wanted to let everyone know that I figured out how to fix this issue. LOL.
First, make sure you use a redirect plugin to redirect your Blogger feed to your WP feed or your RSS feed service like Feedburner.
Also, use the Feedburner Feedsmith plugin to direct your WP blog to Feedburner (if you're using it.)
Keller was correct (see above) about the Google Friend Connect widget.
