Posted by Arun Kumar Choppara On 14:20 | 1 comment
Is your blog post effective? Does your reader really like your post? Are they satisfied with the post content and get benefited? All these questions are very important for Blogging career and would help the bloggers to come up with good posts. Usually any blog template comes up with comments section which is used for feedback from the readers online. But not all the readers would like to write comments on blog posts. It would be better to add some simpler feedback option on blogger. This can be achieved by either adding Star Rating or Thumb Rating to your blog posts. Thumb Rating would help in identifying the number of blog post likes.I have explained the process of adding Star Rating to blogger in my previous post.
Rating Widget provides so many beautiful rating plugins. You can enjoy the power of Rating Widget's Rating System which makes the blog posts most beautiful. Thumb Rating is one among the plugins it provides.
