    Thanks a lot for the tutorial ^_^

    Hi Prayag, I have few questions.

    1. Do they helps in SEO, if yes, then moving from linkwithin to nRelate effect the SEO or not?

    2. I am not able to see the demo widget in the demo link.

    I prefer this over Linkwithin. Much better with advanced customization. Thanks for the info!

    They don't help in any ways in SEO , they are just there for suggesting the reader content that is related to the one they have just read.

    The Demo is present near the end of the post in the Demo link

    I wanted to know this thing. I integrated linkwithin in my Avoided Thoughts blog. The problem I was facing is it shows up after every post. It was so annoying since I only wanted it to be shown under FULL POST read.

    <b:includable id='main'>
    PUT CONDITIONAL TAG HERE
    <b:if cond='data:title != &quot;&quot;'>
    <h2 class='title'><data:title/></h2>
    </b:if>
    <div class='widget-content'>
    <data:content/>

    <b:else/>

    </b:includable>
    </b:wid…

    Prayag, thank you for your post, but now the nrelate is above the jump break link which should not. The nrelate should be BELOW the jumpbreak link.

    How can I fix this?
