Stories and status updates are trending in various Social media platforms. Some of them are in the form of slide shows and others are short videos. Stories get more attention than other contents because it is short and easy to load and watch. By following the trends in social media, Google the Tech giant introduces news segments into the web world called “web stories” with all the benefits of AMP technology. Google is going to release its official plugin for WordPress users to create web stories easily. After the release of the Beta version, Google has now made available the Release Candidate of the Web Stories WordPress Plugin a few days back. So any person can download this Plugin from the official source and can be applied to their website.
The main advantage of a web story is the ability to share it on any platform and can be watched through any of the web browsers. Since it is built on the AMP platform, the loading speed and performance is lightning fast. Web Stories can be made in a vertical form that is more suitable for Mobile views and horizontal view.
The Web Stories helps the publisher to get more traffic into their website especially mobile traffic. Web Stories are actually Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) with a major portion as images and some explanatory texts.
