How to add an engaging reading progress bar to your Wordpress posts
As we all know, building traffic and getting a constant flow of new visitors isn't easy at all.
And that's the smallest problem ...
Why?
Because, users spend only a couple of seconds on a webpage before deciding whether to stay or leave!
In other words, you'll have to anyhing and everything you can to keep them on your site, and more than that, to keep them engaged ... And there are countless ways: interactive images, inline related posts, eye-catchy image galleries, interesting and helpful videos, etc.
Now, the thing is that keeping your readers engaged could be really challenging when you have long posts ... On the other hand, we all know, that long form articles usually will perform better ...
The solution?
A nice, simple progress reading bar enhancement at the top (or at the bottom) of your post. A bar that shows how much more of the article is left to scroll. It will encourage your readers to scroll down and it also motivates users to finish the post they are reading
So I've decided to create a short tutorial where I will show you how easy is to display a neat reading progress indicator in your Wordpress posts.
