Slickstream Engagement Suite

What do you like best?

My favorite Slickstream feature is the scrolling suggestion bar that runs along the top of each post page. Readers are enticed to click-through to other similar posts resulting in more page views per session — that means more ad $$ earned! Not only does Slickstream immediately suggest related posts, readers can search by ingredients, get a list of the posts they have favorited, or see the most popular or latest recipes published — from any entry page, not just the home page.

The new search by ingredient feature is content driven and displays results in real-time as a user adds multiple ingredients separated by a comma. It works seamlessly!

Also, I love the engagement report for new posts that is emailed after one week of publication. This report shows engagement, click-throughs, and traffic comparisons. The design/look of Slickstream on my website is modern and clean and fits in perfectly with the rest of the site.

What do you dislike?

Initially, the plugin slowed down my site, but SS reacted quickly to resolve the problem. I am not noticing any problems at this time and have no hesitancy recommending the plugin to other bloggers/publishers. Honestly, I don't have any complaints with this plugin.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Slickstream provides an easy search function for my readers as well as suggestions for other similar posts the reader might enjoy based on the current page they are browsing. Since implementing Slickstream, my site's click-through rate has increased resulting in more page views and engagement. I have recommended the plugin to other bloggers in my circle and wouldn't hesitate to do so again.
