This popular posts tool is one of the most useful tools provided by Google Blogger.
Popular post contains a list of the most visited posts on your blog during a specific time frame.
As such, the popular posts tool is great for providing visitors with a list of all posts whose pages have been viewed in their history within weeks, months, or all time.
Just as we offer visitors (especially new visitors) nutritious content provided by blogs.
The most important reason we should put this popular posts tool in our blog is to reduce the bounce rate for the blog.
When visitors already have the information they need, they may leave our blog.
Therefore, by providing this tool, we can provide more useful articles for them, and visitors can stay on our blog for a longer period.
