If you are into blogging, you will note that in the design portion of the Wordpress administration (assuming you are using WordPress as your blogging platform) the ease of playing around with the format of your site. Normally they are placed at the bottom of the page to which you can drag and drop them as you please to the desired order of what will be seen each time a visitor visits your blog.

The usual widgets you will see include the categories, recent posts, date, tag clouds, and recent comments for default widgets you will always have. While there are certain orders on how to place them, you can tinker with that a bit and drag the corresponding widget/s to the order you prefer.

When you talk about preferred order, this is thinking like a visitor. In cases where a visitor would like the post you made, chances are he will be looking for others of the same category or similar pages. He may even prefer to look at the tag cloud to which a simple click can return the pages that he would want to see.

So if you look at it, widgets are easier to navigate with compared to the usual programming that the old WordPress scripts had initially used. Instead of getting worried at potential errors in the scripting methodology is concerned, you can rely on the WordPress widgets to do the pre-formatting for you without any worries at all. Just don’t forget to save them after you are done so that you can finally get the right order of widgets for your site.
