The sheer advantages of using read more tags!
Last Update: November 20, 2014
Hey guys,
Just some really helpful advice
Some of you need not worry about this as this is automatic in some themes. But for many like myself, you will need to do this while you are writing your posts. And I'm talking about inserting read more tags into your posts. If you do not understand what I'm talking about here is an example below highlighted in a red box
- It tidies up your homepage.
- People viewing your site don't have to scroll through all posts to find what interests them. Instead they can scroll through easily picking only to read the posts they want.
- It really boosts up the speed of your homepage in both loading and scrolling speeds, which for me I found this awesome.
And this is how you do it: In your post editor click your cursor at the end of the sentence where you want it ( I usually do it after the first paragraph). Then click "insert read more tag" and hey presto, a broken line with "more" will appear. I have a screemshot below to show you.
All the best
Jason
