followthis topic box

This is the main purpose of followthis. We want you to gain new readers that stay your readers. Lets say a user choses randomly topics of interest to them on followthis.com. If one of your articles hits such a topic, the user will get to know about you in his journal and comes to your website to find out more.

You embed the followhis topic box in your website. Usually this does not take longer then 3 minutes. Within the topics of your article are automatically summed up. With one klick on these specific topics the reader „follows“ this theme now. If you write another article with one or more of this topics the followthis user will get the link to your website delivered in his journal. When he klicks on that link he will be guided to your website again.

You gain totally new readers and subscribers. How does that work? New readers, who have never heard of your website or your blog before („outside of their box“) will see your website recommended in their journal. This will only happen if their chosen topics are alike the topics on your page or your articles or blogsposts. By choosing their topics they set an anchor on your page and will not only come in once, but keep coming back if the topics will match again.

The installation is pretty simple. It is usually done in a couple of minutes. You can either download the complete WordPress Plugin or you get the HTML Code from us. In this case, just ask us, we are happy to help you with that. As soon as we provide Plugins for further content management systems we will let you know.

RSS usually delivers all and every article of a website after subscribing to the RSS feed on that site. This often leads to ignoring most of the following updates, because only a part of them are really interesting for the reader. Followthis goes deeper than that and allows the user to subscribe to specific topics.

Followthis is an additional way to gain users and readers to your website and to open a new way for them for coming back. It is a comprehensive system which users use only with one klick. So if a user chose to follow a specific topic on another website he will possibly get to know your website too, if you write about similar stuff. Besides newsletter and RSS it completes your ways of being „magnetic“ to new users.

The topics in the topic box are ususally generated from the referenced keywords. If there are not keywords, the most common topics from the text will be filtered. They will be balanced with the keywords in followthis to show the user the best topic match.

If an article from you meets the chosen topics of an user, your article will automatically be teasered to our users in their daily or weekly journal with a short description and a link to your website. We want the user to read the article on your website, so he have to klick the link to come to your website to read the whole news.

You can deactivate the followthis topic box for single articles just by using the checkbox in your editor. But you can also deactivate the complete plugin at any time. This means no more posts from you will be delivered to your readers.

Yes. You can embed followthis on as many websites as you want. To help the readers to subscribe to your different websites you just get different profiles on followthis.

The wordpress Plugin was designed for blogs and posts. But it’s easy to embedd the HTML Code manually for other templates as well. Just contact us, we will be happy to help.
