New Social Media Buttons For Blogger

Social networking is an important part of getting traffic that just can’t be ignored and making it easier for your visitors to find you on their favorite social networks isn’t such a bad idea. Apart from using nice share buttons, bookmarking your site on different social networks also serves as a way to alert your visitors each time you post an update. The icons here are of different sets and you can place them anywhere on your blog, linking them to your facebook, twitter and google plus profile or fan pages. The sets also contain RSS and email icons. You can link the email icon to your contact page or feedburner email subscription link. I only used the most popular social media icons which include facebook, twitter and google plus. I hope you like them, they are all ready to use and all you need to do is paste the code to your blog and watch the icons show up.

How To Add These Social Media Icons To Blogger

1. Log in to your Blogger account and go to Design

2. Depending on where you want the icons to appear, click on Add a Gadget. I prefer the icons at the header or at the top of the right side bar.

3. Search for the following in the code and replace with your own profiles:

- http://facebook.com/capriotips
- http://twitter.com/doncaprio
- https://plus.google.com/104745456339871522709/plusones
- http://feeds.feedburner.com/doncaprio
- http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=doncaprio&loc=en_US

3. Select HTML/JavaScript.

4. Paste the code and save.

Note that you must edit the links in bold or your blog would be linking to my own social network profiles. Share the post if you find it helpful.

    This is just what I was looking for.

    Every time I try to add a gadget Blogger tells my that I have “illegal characters”. What am I doing wrong?

    thanks K

      Illegal characters? I’m afraid I’ve never seen that before. Maybe you can start a help topic in blogger help forum :)

      Cheers

      • avatar Karen Ludwig says:

        I’d have to call the topic “I’m an idiot”. I was using the wrong gadget. Nevermind lol. It worked like a charm once I did it right. Thanks :o )

  21. avatar Karen Ludwig says:

    OH! And the Pintrest thing…genius. Thanks again :o )

    • I haven’t been using Pinterest though cuz I don’t even have an account. I think I’ll need to register just to see what it looks like :)

  22. Great, I’m really happy with the buttons, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your effort and making this available free of advertising etcetc.
    I’m on social media for quite a while so I also have some “old”, less popular networks that I would like to share like Flickr and Delicious, if you know where I can find those buttons I would be really greatful to know. I can figure out how to integrate them in the code myself. I think :-)
    and another question, the only thing I do not completely understand is the email part, which I think in your case is feedburner stuff, where/how can I find the right link to integrate?
