I recently started using Mint to track my site stats and thanks to some help from the plugin author I managed to get the Mint Popular Posts WordPress Plugin working properly. This plugin creates a list of popular posts based on the stats produced by Mint.
Most other popular posts plugins tend to be drain resources as they have to track every page impression, but given that mint is already tracking my stats I get to kill two birds with one stone without any additional server load.
I’m convinced that getting this plugin working is why traffic to the posts listed has shot up a bit. If you’re looking for a plugin that will help to highlight your most popular posts or best work, then you should definitely give this one a shot. If you’re interested, I’ve listed all the other plugins I’m using below. Let me know if your using any plugins you think I should consider, or if you’ve got any questions about any I’m using.
The Mint Popular Posts plugin offers a lost of customisation options which are very handy. The number of posts to display can be controlled, as well as how many days e.g. 7,30 etc, pages or extensions to ignore, whether or not the number of page views should be included as well as several other variables. I had a bit of a problem as some of my posts are split into separate pages, and some of these pages were being listed in my top 10 as separate ‘posts’, although Yaakov told me how to fix this.
