Sidebar Pro – The Ultimate Sticky Blog Sidebar
A great sidebar is more than just a list of links—it's a tool to keep visitors on your site longer, help them find content, and monetize your traffic. Sidebar Pro is a feature-rich, modern HTML5/CSS3 sidebar template designed for professional blogs, news magazines, and documentation sites.
The standout feature is its Smart Sticky Positioning. On desktop screens, the sidebar stays fixed in view as the user scrolls down long articles, ensuring your ads and best content remain visible at all times.
Key Features
- Sticky Behavior: Uses `position: sticky` to keep widgets in view while reading, boosting click-through rates.
- Modern Search Widget: A stylish input field with a floating icon button to help users find content instantly.
- Rich Recent Posts: Displays post thumbnails, titles, and dates in a clean list format, far superior to standard text links.
- Category Badges: Navigation links with pill-shaped "count badges" to show how many posts are in each category.
- Monetization Ready: Includes a dedicated, responsive Ad Spot (300x250) optimized for AdSense or banner advertisements.
- Clean Archives: A neat monthly archive list with hover animations and chevron indicators.
Why use this template?
Most default sidebars are plain and static. Sidebar Pro adds a layer of polish and interactivity to your website layout.
It is designed to pair perfectly with our "Header Pro" and "Footer Pro" templates, sharing the same color palette and typography. It is fully responsive, automatically moving to the bottom of the page on mobile devices to prioritize your main content.
