Popular Posts Plugin as a Great Addition on Blogger Machine


Hi bloggy readers,
One of many ways to drive visitor's attention to visit some of our best articles in our blog, is by showing them about the popularity of those articles with popular posts plugin. As many of you know, the popularity of blog articles can be shown either by the number of comments we received from the visitors, or by the total number of visits we got on our blog articles. Apparently, since we don't know how exactly to show to the visitors regarding the exact number of visits from our article, then there is no other benchmark we can use in this case, except on the total number of comments we received in each post. But, when it comes to Blogger Team, that case can be an exception. With their advanced method in updating or upgrading their own machine, now the popular posts plugin can really use the total number of visits as the popularity benchmark.

Popular posts plugin on Blogger, which officially developed by Blogger Team, has become one of many "must have" widgets for those of you who want to show off, or maybe just to lead visitors to visit some of your articles that are considered as the best articles in your blog, either by yourself or blog visitors. By stacking this popular posts plugin can also help improve the number of pageviews on your blog. So, i strongly suggest you to begin adding this popular posts plugin to your blog.

1. Enter to your Blogger account

In the Page Element, now pick one area in your blog layout, and then press the link called Add a Gadget. On top of the widget options, you will see the widget popular posts plugin has been automatically added as a new addition on Blogger official widget, now pick that option.
