Tutorial: Embedding Google Newsbar Wizard to WordPress
There are a number of ways to get targeted news, relevant to your niche, to your website. We've tried most of them, and the new NewsBar Wizard from Google News AJAX Search API is easily the best to date.
Simply enter the keywords you want to show up in the feed, copy the code generated by Google, and embed it to your website. The result enables visitors to view the latest headlines from each of the listed terms at a glance, and click quickly between news for the various search terms. The widget displays the results without any heavy-handed branding, flashy effects, or unnecessary load times. In short, it's Google doing what it does best — giving us unparalled results faster than anyone else.
We show you exactly how to embed this fantastic new capability onto a WordPress -driven website, but the principle will be largely the same for most other content management and blogging platforms (if you use static html, it'll be easier again). It's a CPP situation (copy javascript, paste, pray…). You know the kind.
Here's where to get the Google NewsBar Wizard.
And here's the full lowdown, with embedding directions:
And here's what the end result comes out as (note that the content will auto-resize to a sidebar etc.). Click on any of the search terms and you'll see what this thing is all about: it's a way for your visitors to get their news on all the important niche topics in no time at all.
