Having a read-more option in your posts can highly encourage your readers’ click-throughs and help you track your most popular entries. Adding read-more button is more than easy, read my tutorial here: How to Insert Read More Option on Blogger and WordPress? Default Blogger styling of a read-more button can look a bit boring and unnoticeable tho. For this reason, I personally use custom styled read-more buttons on all of our Blogger templates.
However, if you’re trying to make changes to your blog yourself, here is quick styling update you can follow.
Simply go to CUSTOMIZE->ADVANCED->ADD CSS and paste in this code:
.jump-link { text-transform: uppercase; margin: 0 auto; font-size: 14px; letter-spacing: 2px; text-align: center; padding-top: 30px; } .jump-link a { border: 1px solid; padding: 10px; }
The above code will render your read more link as this:
It looks way more professional, doesn’t it? You can also change the text of the read more >>Β into anything you’d like! Simply go to LAYOUT-> Select Edit on Blog widget-> find an option to change Read More text.
Simple as that!
Let me know if you give this a try friends!
