Description

This plugins store your post and tag archive page visitor in your database and display the popular one on the widget area. We use ajax call to store visit information in database when someone is viewing your posts to prevent this plugin from slowing down your website load time.

It is often used in news website to show which tags are the most popular for the visitor. We also provide you with the option choose in what timeframe you want to measure your popular tags.

FAQ

Will it slow down my website

No. We use ajax to send visit data to minimize the effect on overall website performance. We also use transient to retrieve popular posts data every hour. It will save you a lot of server resources.

Why it is not updated in real time ?
