Though I may not be sharing my template with you as of now but I will be sharing a content slider widget at the top of the blog with Thumbnails and Post summary.

What are the Advantages Of Content Slider:


1.Gives a good look to the blog:-
A Blog look and design are always very important points to keep in mind.A pleasant and easily navigable blog will attract more visitors and decreases the bounce rate.

A blog is regularly updated with new posts.So the older posts goes down and after few days they disappear in your blog middle pages.All the posts may not have same potential .Some posts are very precious and can bring large number of visitors to your blog.So you can keep such posts alive on your blog forever with this slider.


3.Increases Page views and Time spent on your blog:
If you put some interesting posts in your slider then you can keep your visitors busy in reading those articles thereby increasing your page views and time spent on your blog.



Advantages of ATB Slider Over Other Sliders:
I know that there are many sliders for giving an attractive look to your blog but they are of no use in case if you want to increase your page views.Visitors rarely click those images in sliders.I can say this from my personal experience.I used many sliders like image sliders,content sliders and sliders with both images and content.But visitors very rarely click those images.After using this slider I managed to keep visitors for a average time of 5 minutes on my blog. I strongly recommend you to switch to this slider as soon as possible.So lets get started keep reading.
