Make use of a popular post widget, you can create it by yourself by adding a menu to your sidebar called "Popular posts" or write your own HTML code. You can also make use of a plugin. The plugin I use gives also the amount of clicks on that particular post. When you want this activated on your website with a plugin, start asap, the counting starts the moment you have added it.
This one is made with the plugin.
Plugin used: Top 10, by Ajay D'Sousa
This one I made myself by writing the code on a test post and copy and paste it into a widget.
Amount of plugins
You might wonder how many plugins I am using on my website, because of the warning about it. I know, you have to choose between which one you really need, and which ones you can live without. My website is a training website for creating awesome content. And I do blog about different plugins too, so, the best thing for me is to use those plugins to inform my visitors about the existence.
For that matter I have now 33 plugins.
It's wise to check every plugin on a test website.
