New Stats Gadgets

Posted by Wiktor Gworek, Software Engineer

Update, 9/29: 
Based upon your feedback, we've added two gadget options:

1. In the Popular Post gadget, you can now choose the number of posts you want the gadget to display
2. In the Blog's Stats gadget, we've added an option to let you choose the time window of your pageview counts (All Time, Last 30 days, Last 7 days)

After we launched the Blogger Stats to Blogger in Draft, we’ve made some improvements based on your feedback. (See the updates on our original blog post for the list of changes.) Additionally, we’ve created two new gadgets that you can add to your blog to show your readers interesting stats from your blog: Blog’s stats and Popular Posts gadgets.

The data for these gadgets is automatically taken from Blogger Stats. To use them, go to Design | Page Elements, and click on “Add a gadget.”

The Blog’s stats gadget displays total pageviews* of your blog. The gadget comes in different styles and also features an optional sparkline graph.

(* The pageviews are counted from when we rolled out the Stats feature, not from the first day your blog was created.)

The Popular Posts gadget helps your readers quickly find out which of your posts have been viewed the most by your readers. The gadget also comes with several different styles and configurations.

The new Stats gadgets are available now on Blogger in Draft, so you can go ahead and give them a try now. For any bugs, questions, or suggestions, please send them our way through the comments to this post or our Blogger Help forum.
