Widgets

If you have a website, you need to include dynamic content - useful, interesting content which is updated every day. Now we have made it easy to include the latest content from Roadtransport.com in your own website, using an embeddable ‘widget’. It’s free, it’s safe and it should keep people coming back to your site.

What is a widget?

It is a small piece of code which you can insert into your website. Once you have done that, something like this should appear on your site:

 

 

Once the widget is in place, there's no need to update anything – that’s our job! The widget will simply display fresh stories, classified ads, jobs, blog posts and Tweets as they come in.

What’s in it for me?

Because the content of the widget changes so frequently, it gives visitors to your website something new to look at every day – so they might visit more often, and stay longer when they do. More visitor traffic means more awareness of your website and your brand (ouch! – sorry for the marketing speak…).

How do I get the widget code?

Simply click the 'Get This' button at the bottom of the example widget above, or visit our widget gallery.

How do I insert it into my site?

This is a job for a professional – or a talented amateur. The widget code can be inserted anywhere on an HTML page (that is, on more or less any website). Just make sure that you have the previous code backed up safely, and can restore the original version of your site.

Technical note: the widget relies on some Javascript code; if the visitor looking at the widget has Javascript turned off (or it is not installed at all) the widget will not display.

What if the widget isn’t right for my site?

We also have a version of the widget with the 'Classifieds' tab first, which we'll happily provide to you if it's more appropriate to your site. And if you have more specific requirements, please contact editor@roadtransport.com and we'll do our best to help.
