Social media buttons are an easy and effective way to encourage users\u2019 engagement on the company\u2019s social media <\/a>profiles. Adding social buttons to a website or blog also helps building a lasting relationship with potential customers, which can generate leads and conversions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Where to locate the buttons?<\/h2>\n

The social buttons should be placed on all relevant web pages. Unlike download buttons or other buttons that call to action, social buttons should not stand out, but they should not blend in the background or be found by scrolling down. It is generally acceptable to locate the general social buttons at the top of the page, and place the share and like buttons at the bottom of article pages.<\/p>\n

How to add social buttons?<\/h2>\n

One way to add social media buttons to your website is by services such as Share this<\/a> or Add this<\/a>, which offer customable buttons and toolbars that can be easily embed on most platforms. However, their overall effect is usually weaker comparing to individual buttons of few, selected social websites. It is also harder to track the number of shares and other visitors\u2019 actions using these services.<\/p>\n

Another way is to add only the buttons with the highest conversion potential, obviously depends on the website and its target audience\u2019s character. The result will be a friendlier user-experience, a cleaner look, and usually better conversion rate.<\/p>\n

The largest social websites offer various social buttons with embedded codes:<\/p>\n

Facebook<\/strong> \u2013 Facebook social plugins<\/a> allow you to add buttons that will allow site\u2019s users to do almost everything they do on Facebook on your website, including comment, like, send the content to friends, follow the site\u2019s subscribers and more.<\/p>\n

Twitter <\/strong>\u2013 Twitter social buttons<\/a> offer four types of buttons: share, follow, hashtag and mention.<\/p>\n

Google+ \u2013 <\/strong>Google\u2019s social network also has four plugins: +1 button that allows visitors to recommend a website or a webpage on Google+, a share button, a badge that invites friends to follow the Google+ page or profile and a snippet, which can be customized and shared. You can download and embed to Google+ buttons on Google+ Plugins<\/a>.<\/p>\n
