Awesome Style Related Post Widget with Thumbnails for Blogger

Hi friends,

I am going to tell you how to Custom Related Post Widget with Thumbnails for Blogger. Most of the bloggers might be using Third Party Related post widgets like nRelate , Linkwithin or sometimes Outbrain and also many more, But the main disadvantage of Third Party widgets is that they effect the blog loading time as they take more time for loading .And effect your website become weak performance .

So I thought to design some really cool widget for blogger which can work independently.

Some Awesome Features of this Related Post Widget:

Can be customized easily.
Related Posts with Thumbnail and Title.
The script will automatically take related posts from the labels and shows up any four of the related posts.So the posts shown will be very much relevant to the content.
Doesn't effect the loading time of the blog.This is the main reason behind me designing this widget.

Steps to Add Related Post Widget to Your Blog:

It is very much important to backup your template first before proceeding to next, if anything goes wrong then you can revert back to normal easily.
backup your temple's to helps you to set your website to normal if any wrong this is happens.
Then go to Blogger Dashboard ->Template -> EDIT HTML
Now search for the below code using ctrl+f.

Then search for the below code

<div class='post-footer'>

After you have done the above two steps ,save the changes and then check the preview of your blog.If everything goes fine you should be above to see Related Posts under each and every post of your blog.

Customization:

If you are really good at css then you can do a lot of modifications to css and change the widget to the color of your wish.
I kept the width as standard i.e 590px,you can alter this and change the width to the width of your blog.
I kept the title as You Might Also Like which can be easily changed in the highlighted area.
I restricted the number of posts to be displayed to 4 ,in case you wish you can increase it as well.

This is my favourite related post widget.If you have any trouble placing it on your blog ,let us know in your comments.I will help you.
