Do you have a long post which sometimes span across 3 to 5 or more pages in length? Or would you like to get more page views for every post per visit? How about splitting a large picture post into individual pages on its own and not get ‘picture-blind’?

This technique is actually already built in into Wordpress (for ages!) and surprisingly not many people knows about it, except for the Gurus of course.

So how do you create paging for your posts? Simple. All you need to do is to add this line into the HTML/Code part of your post:

<!--nextpage-->

Here’s an example of it in practice:

...

<!--nextpage-->

trying to drink from the watering can.

The number of pages will depend on how many of the next page code you add into your post. I’ve paginated this page for you to try it out. Click on page 2 to continue.
