Using WordPress, I created a reusable block and add the most popular posts over the last 24 hours to the end of every news story (it’s a news site).
Since adding that feature, my page views and time on site have nearly doubled, it helps to present my readers with other posts that are relevant at the time.
Even if someone finds a news article that is a few years old through a web search, at the end of the article it will display the most current trending stories to encourage people to keep reading. Works great. I recommend.

This does exactly what it promises and does it well. I have used it for the past four years and I’ve had little issue with it. The only complaint, small, is its CSS practices and a few inconsistencies. It uses several CSS properties with “!important” attributes which isn’t exactly an efficient practice — and ignored by frameworks like AMP that emphasise lean code (to clarify, the plugin author offers a good explanation for why he does that in their response below). Thumbnail options in the plugin settings also have no effects on thumbnails in widgets. I dequeued its stylesheet and added styles to a custom stylesheet, and they still apply with !important. Otherwise, it’s the best plugin for what it does — lean and efficient.
