I’m just going to write this short post to tell everyone I just installed a new plugin called Popularity Contest, which can be downloaded at that link. It constantly monitors the popularity of each blog post (based on views I’m guessing) and ranks each one. This data can be found in the Wordpress dashboard, and can be displayed in a sidebar widget as shown to the right. In addition, it shows the popularity of each post at the bottom of each article in percentage form. Thanks to Alexking.org for this one.

Instructions
1. Download the plugin.
2. Upload the plugin to your plugins directory on your server.
3. Activate the plugin in your Wordpress plugins page.

Everything should be tracking now. If you want to display your top posts in a sidebar widget like I have, just create a PHP widget and include this code:

<li><h2>Most Popular Posts</h2>
   <ul>
   <?php akpc_most_popular(); ?>
   </ul>
</li>

This should display your top posts in a nicely made sidebar widget. Thanks again to the creator for this great plugin. The great thing about this feature is that you can show off your most popular posts, and therefore get more clicks per user when they see more articles they may want to read.
