One of the most valuable widgets on any student blog is the one that tracks visitors. On Blogger it is called Blog Stats which is found in the Add a Gadget on the Layout page. Everybody wants to know that what they are posting is being seen and we all know that very few visitors actually leave a comment. This widget allows students using Blogger to see their work is still being seen.
Count this in the Must Have category.
Yes and don't underestimate the value of 'hard data' so that when reporting to the School Boards or Boards of Trustees (in New Zealand) we can share how well your page is doing.
