Have you ever noticed how many high profile bloggers like to offer a monthly review post at the end of each month featuring their top posts for that month?   This is a common tactic used by bloggers to recycle some old posts and promote some of their best work.

If you’d like to do something like this, or already are, you might want to check out a new WordPress plugin called WP Best Posts Summary.   The plugin will automatically generate a summary post daily, weekly, or monthly (you control this from the Options panel) and allow you to set how many posts to use.  Here is an example of how it will look:

You can download or get more information about the plugin here.

    sounds brilliant man…now to make enough posts in the month so to fill the top 4!

  2. Very nice! I wonder if it lets bloggers modify the post title. Or if it is automatic. Regardless very cool and useful plugin.

  3. This sounds very useful, I post so often during a week, I know I overload some people. I think this will be a handy tool.

    Thanks for the link!

    Too bad it doesn’t appear to work completely well with 2.5 and above, especially if you want to use Visits as a criteria, since that requires Popularity Contest which still appears to not be compatible for 2.5 and above…
