Create a Floating Feedback and Back-To-Top Button For Your Blogs

Asking your visitors to leave you suggestions or feedbacks can be pretty easy only if you provide them with an easy access to your feedback page. Readers are often lazy and getting them to leave a feedback is often tough. However you can let them comment willingly if you add a floating feedback button to your blog, that floats as a reader scrolls down or up. This floating button can be made more user friendly and eye-catching if you add a roll over effect to it. Hover your mouse over my feedback button at the bottom-left corner of this page and observe how the button magnifies when you hover your cursor over it. Liked it? Lets now learn the TNT of adding a Feedback Button to your blogs, along with a Floating Back-To-Top Button, which I will discuss later.

For a feedback button you will need two images, one small (30 by 145 pixels) and one large (35 by 170 pixels) You can also use my feedback button if you wish,

Small Image :                                Large Image :

Get URLs for both these images and then follow the steps below

• Go To Layout > Page Elements

• Click on add a Gadget

 

• Click on HTML/JavaScript

 

• Now Copy paste the code below into the HTML/JavaScript widget,
