Clever Widgets 2.9.1 from Thrive Themes

Thrive Themes Clever Widgets allows you to display highly relevant content in your widget areas effortlessly. This WordPress plugin transforms your website from being unintelligent to clever in just a few clicks.

How Clever Widgets Enhance User Experience & Conversion Rate

Previously, websites utilized the space available in the sidebar, footer area, or other widget areas by displaying the same content on every page. This approach created two significant issues:

1. It ignored the fact that different individuals visited different parts of the website for different reasons, thus treating everyone with a “one-size-fits-all” approach.
2. It compelled you to display generic content in your widget areas in the hopes of appealing to as many people as possible.

The outcome?

Your widget content was not personalized and mostly ignored by visitors.

With the Clever Widgets plugin, you can easily display targeted content in your widget areas. Instead of an unremarkable offering, you can show visitors precisely what they’ve been searching for, resulting in more clicks, fewer bounces, and higher conversion rates. Clever Widgets acknowledge that your site visitors are providing you with a wealth of information based on which pages they’re viewing. With this plugin, you can determine exactly where to display your widget content to visitors based on categories, tags, post types, and even include/ exclude rules specific to pages.

How Clever Widgets Can Enhance Your Site

Thrive Clever Widgets integrate seamlessly with the default widgets options in WordPress. After installing the plugin, a new link appears for every widget you add to any widget area. A user-friendly interface allows you to choose exactly where your widget should be shown.

The Need for Speed

At Thrive Themes, we regard website speed as crucial. Slow load times destroy the user experience and negatively affect conversion rates. That’s why we build every product with speed in mind. If you’re wondering whether the Thrive Clever Widgets plugin will slow down your website when you create numerous widgets with intricate targeting options, the answer is no. Using Clever Widgets, only the widgets that should be loaded on a page are loaded. The excluded widgets on a page add no data to it. In other words, displaying widgets with this plugin’s logic is no slower than the old “one-size-fits-all” way.​
