6 Best Widget for Blogger Blogs

A popular post widget is used to display the most read article of a blog over the past week, month or all time.

Popular post widget is something that is present in almost all the blogger blogs. It is a default widget offered by blogger and it can be added from the layouts tab by clicking on the 'Add a gadget link'. However, this will display the popular post widget in a default way. Few CSS may be applied to the template of the blog to customize the look of this widget.

I browsed a little over 30 kinds of popular post widget to filter the best 5 out of the list. Kindly do share your comments about these widgets.

There are lot of CSS available for this widget from many skilled bloggers and yet I have picked those which are widely used and loved by many bloggers.
