<p>Timify is your one-stop solution for informing your readers about the last modified date, publish date, reading time, word count, post view count by IP address and date formate time ago of an article.<br />
To maintain a proper engagement with your audience, it is important to add the last updated time of your post or page in WordPress.<br />
Google prefers articles that include update dates rather than publish dates. Timify will automatically generate the last update time of your articles.<br />
And you don’t have to write a single code. This makes it a lot easier to handle everything about timing.<br />
Furthermore, you can also edit the “Last Update” word according to your preference.</p>
<p>And that’s not all, Timify allows you to add an estimating reading time for your WordPress blogs.<br />

<p>The estimating reading time will automatically appear at the beginning of your article as soon as you activate the plugin.<br />
You can also deactivate the reading time from your dashboard. Labels and postfixes can be edited from the “Reading Time” section inside the settings.<br />
Timify allows you to have absolute control over the reading time placement.<br />
Insert and customize reading time into any post or page by using the [timify-post-reading-time] shortcode.<br />
This shortcode is also compatible with label and postfix values. But, that’s optional and up to you to decide.</p>
