Have you seen Amazon’s product pages? Amazon is a great example of visitor retention through recommendations. All of Amazon’s pages have a “Customers who viewed this item also viewed”. And how many times have you clicked those links? I know I have!
Now you can implement the same feature on your WordPress blog. WebberZone Followed Posts let’s you show “Readers who viewed this page, also viewed” links on your page.
The plugin tracks the pages, posts and custom post types that visitors click through from the current post. You can then display these followed posts automatically at the bottom of your posts, using a shortcode or via the inbuilt widget.
If you’re looking for a plugin that displays posts related to the content, look no further than Contextual Related Posts.
Key features
- Automatic: The plugin will start displaying visited posts on your posts and pages automatically after the content when you activate the plugin
- Block editor support: Easy to use block for the block editor. Find it under widgets or using “followed posts” or “where did they go from here”
- Shortcode: Use
[wherego]to display the followed posts - Multi-Widget support: Find the Followed posts widget to display the posts in your theme’s sidebar or any other area that supports widgets. You can use the widget multiple times with different settings for each

- Exclusions: Exclude select posts and pages from the list of posts. Exclude posts from select categories from the list of posts
- Supports all post types: The visited posts list lets you include posts, pages, attachments or any other custom post type!
- Styles: The output is wrapped in CSS classes which allows you to easily style the list. You can enter your custom CSS styles from within WordPress Admin area
- Customizable and extendable: Extendable via filters and actions. Style with CSS or use the inbuilt plugin API
