Maintaining a simple and user-friendly interface for a blog is considered holy. One can not only make visitors happy, he/she can decrease the blogs bounce rate and increase visibility. There are various ways in which you can impress your daily blog visitors and so-called plugins play the major role in achieving that on a WordPress platform.
The ‘Scroll to Top’ jQuery plugins help you place an icon towards the blogs bottom right corner and can also provide a nice smooth transition effect. These are plugins and does not require any expertise to setup. Here are the three WordPress jQuery plugins that can do the trick for you.
1) Scroll to Top Button – This is the plugin which we are using here on Compixels.com and you can already see it while you scroll down. Developed by Reza Erauansyah its does the simple task of scroll up when you click on the arrow( bottom right ). The icon, scroll speed and image appearance location can be changed from WordPress dash.
2) UItoTop jQuery Plugin – Developed Matt Varone this plugin does the scrolling job easily. There is no need to add any extra html markup for this to work. One thing to note is that this plugin will work only when JavaScript is on. You can even change to icon with text on it from dashboard.
3) jQuery Plugin: Scroll to Top v3 – Developed by Craid wilson this jQuery plugin adds a fading scroll to top link with animated scrolling. You can choose the position so that the icon appears only after the user has scrolled down to that location.

Hi Binoy
.
I really appreciate these plugins , but don’t you think , it might effect the loading speed of the blog??
Hi Sunil, thanks for visiting. Considering the fact that google is now indexing based on page load speeds too it might be a matter of concern. But for long pages these plugins are required for easily scrolling to top.
Very Interesting!
Thank You!
These tools look great, and must give the user a much more easy time when they are installed
