All In One Social Sharing Buttons For Blogger

Social sharing is very important for a website's traffic and popularity. A site with more social shares is more popular than the site having less social shares. Social networks are so popular that after Google Facebook is the second biggest website with respect to traffic. Its popularity can be evaluated from its number of users that it has more than 1.3 billion users word wide. Similarly other social networks like Twitter, Pinterest, linkedin etc have also many users and it is a great opportunity for bloggers and site owners to gain traffic from social networks. Although every blog and site has built-in social icons for sharing posts but people search and add other social sharing icons because of their responsive and stylish design.
Social buttons have become so common and are found in almost every blog or site. Social buttons are of different sizes, positions(horizontal or vertical) fixed, responsive etc and everybody has his own taste some like horizontal social buttons while some like vertical buttons, some like floating and responsive buttons while some like fixed buttons that's why in this post I will share almost every type of social sharing buttons along with the methods of adding it in blog and their features.

(1). Add-this buttons:

Add-this is widely used bookmarking service. It provides free website plugins like sharing buttons, follow buttons, content recommendations etc which helps you to get more likes, shares and increase your website/blog traffic. It provides data of your shares and followers also. It tracks all the shares and followers of a site or blog. To use these buttons registration is needed. It has different styles of buttons like horizontal sharing buttons, vertical sharing buttons, buttons with counters and without counters, mobile sharing buttons, newsletter buttons etc and follow buttons includes custom follow buttons(position them where-ever you want) on your blog, follow header buttons, horizontal follow buttons, vertical follow buttons and follow buttons toolbar for mobile. After follow and share buttons addthis also provides you with recommended content widget which shows recommended content to visitors it is of more than 7 types such as recommended content drawer(slides from left or right side of the blog when hovered with mouse), recommended content toaster, mobile what's next, desktop what's next(a slide on the bottom of the screen), jumbo recommended content slider(highlights content on whole page when someone share a post or follow you), horizontal and vertical recommended content widgets, recommended content content footer etc. Addthis provides marketing tools also like welcome bar on top of the page and lightbox conversation widget. Some of the buttons and widgets are free while some can be used after upgrading account to premium. I am not sharing code of any widget as every user should have his own account to get buttons and gadgets along with tracking service of shares and followers. To sign-up and get buttons click here.

(2). Add to any social buttons:

Add to any is similar to addthis but it doesn't require registration and it doesn't provide tracking records of shares and new followers. It provides social share buttons for wordpress, blogger,Drupal, thumblr, joomla and other websites. Add to any provides different types of buttons e.g vertical and horizontal buttons, subscription buttons, sharing buttons menu, Facebook, Google+,pinterest and twitter buttons. You can also decide the position of your widget. In this post I am sharing the code of each widget, choose your style, copy the code and follow simple steps mentioned below to add these buttons in your blog.

How to add (add to any) social buttons in blogger:

Its very easy to add these buttons in blogger but some buttons don't take the position therefore I will mention these buttons separate after sharing other buttons so choose your desired style and follow below mentioned steps to add these buttons in blogger:

To add buttons in sidebar:

(1). Go to blogger Dashboard.

(2). Go to layout, click on add a gadget, scroll down to Html/javascript, paste the code of desired sharing buttons and click on save.

To add buttons below posts:

(1). Go to blogger dashboard.

(2). Select template and click on Edit Html.

(3). Click anywhere in the Html code and search for below code by using combination of Ctrl+F on your keyboard:

<data:post.body/>

(4). Just below it paste the code of buttons which you want to add in your blog.

(5). Finally, click on save template and you are done!

Note: some times in blogger templates/custom templates buttons fails to appear when you try to add them below post, in that case add buttons in side bar of your blog. Buttons will automatically take position under every post.

Codes of Sharing buttons:

Style 1(Simple sharing buttons):

</div>

</script>

(function(){

var a = document.createElement('script');

a.type = 'text/javascript';

a.async = true;

a.src = '//static.addtoany.com/js/blogger.js';

var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];

s.parentNode.insertBefore(a, s);

})();

</script>

Large Sized:

Small sized:

With counters:

</div>

Custom buttons:

You can customize these buttons e.g: you can change shape of buttons by replacing the image url of desired button. For example Facebook button is in square shape and you want it in round shape simply go to Google images, search for round Facebook icons, copy the image link and replace it with the default link.

<div class="a2a_kit"> <a class="a2a_button_facebook"> <img src="//farm3.staticflickr.com/2863/12004329833_ddcd67ff4a_o.png" border="0" alt="Facebook" width="54" height="55"/> </a> <a class="a2a_button_twitter"> <img src="//farm3.staticflickr.com/2886/12004329883_8daa4af904_o.png" border="0" alt="Twitter" width="54" height="55"/> </a> <a class="a2a_button_google_plus"> <img src="//farm4.staticflickr.com/3774/12004033365_8965d86637_o.png" border="0" alt="Google+" width="54" height="55"/> </a> <a class="a2a_button_pinterest">
<img src="http://www.pafcs.org/assets/pinterest.png" border="0" alt="pinterest" width="54" height="55"/>
</a><a class="a2a_dd" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"> <img src="//farm8.staticflickr.com/7326/12005120763_a44dc82111_o.png" border="0" alt="Share" width="54" height="55"/> </a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="//static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

You can increase or decrease the height and width of icon by increasing or decreasing numbers in width="54" and height="55"/>.

Style 2(Sharing buttons with counters):

Style 2 has different buttons than style one. In style one almost all buttons don't have counters so in style 2 I am sharing buttons having counters. These buttons will show number of shares of each post. Style 2 brings stylish buttons with counters and in all sizes(small, normal, large). Use the same method which is mentioned above for style 1 buttons to add any of the buttons shown below in your blog.

Small sized buttons with counters:

You can see in above image, style 2 buttons have counters. It has some famous buttons like Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Pinterest and Reddit other buttons are also available but these show up when the button is hovered by mouse which is beside Reddit button.

Normal sized button with counters:

<div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_24 a2a_default_style"> <a class="a2a_button_facebook a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_pinterest a2a_counter"></a><a class="a2a_button_reddit a2a_counter"></a><a class="a2a_button_twitter a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_google_plusone a2a_counter" style="width:85px"></a> <a class="a2a_dd" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share_save"></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="//static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

Large sized buttons with counters:

<div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 a2a_default_style"> <a class="a2a_button_facebook a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_twitter a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_pinterest a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_linkedin a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_reddit a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_dd" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share_save"></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="//static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

Largest sized buttons with counters:

This is the last type of counter buttons having largest size among all. These type of buttons should be used in blogs having large sized font so these buttons will be compatible with the blog's design. These buttons contains some most used social network icons like Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin. Other buttons are also included like Reddit and Pinterest. Except these buttons other icons are also included but they are packed in addtoany button and are displayed when hovered with mouse.

<div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_64 a2a_default_style"> <a class="a2a_button_facebook a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_twitter a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_pinterest a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_linkedin a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_reddit a2a_counter"></a> <a class="a2a_dd" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share_save"></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="//static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

Style 3:

Floating buttons:

After sharing ordinary buttons its time to share some interesting gadgets like floating share buttons. Almost every blog and website is using this gadget as it helps visitors to share posts easily, now visitors don't need to go to top or bottom for sharing buttons because these buttons will fly with them no matter in which direction user is scrolling page e.g up or down.

One more thing is that I am sharing two types of floating buttons a vertical and another horizontal. I am sure you haven't seen a horizontal floating button gadget yet, so here I am sharing floating buttons and also how to give them desired position on your blog.

Vertical floating share buttons:

It is the most common gadget used now a days in almost every blog and site. It floats beside your post, you change its position also. I will show how to change position of this gadget after the code.

<div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 a2a_floating_style a2a_vertical_style" style="left:0px; top:150px;"> <a class="a2a_button_facebook"></a> <a class="a2a_button_twitter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_google_plus"></a> <a class="a2a_button_pinterest"></a> <a class="a2a_dd" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="//static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

Customization:

You can change the position of buttons only along with another thing that's adding more buttons, to add more buttons visit addtoany.com where you can find code for each button all you have to do in to copy and paste code of desired button in your gadget's code. You can see highlighted piece in above code that shows the position of gadget you can change the position according to your blog's width by making changes in this highlighted piece of code. Make sure not to erase px while making changes in code otherwise it won't work. You can also use percentage(%) instead of px.

Horizontal floating buttons:

Horizontal floating buttons are similar to vertical floating buttons but this gadget is not used by anyone yet as nobody knows about horizontal floating buttons. Addtoany has presented this gadget first time. It works like vertical buttons, the only difference between vertical and horizontal floating buttons is its look. You can use horizontal buttons in top or bottom of your blog. You can see a snapshot below along with code, if you like it, code the code and follow the same method which I told above for other buttons. You can position you share buttons bar by changing the number in top, right, left and bottom. Don't erase px otherwise it won't work, though you can use % instead of it.

<div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 a2a_floating_style a2a_vertical_style" style="left:0px; right:0px; bottom:0px; top:150px;"> <a class="a2a_button_facebook"></a> <a class="a2a_button_twitter"></a> <a class="a2a_button_google_plus"></a> <a class="a2a_button_pinterest"></a> <a class="a2a_dd" href="http://www.addtoany.com/share_save"></a></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="//static.addtoany.com/menu/page.js"></script>

That's it. Addtoany doesn't provide more buttons but if you want unique style buttons you can create them at https://www.addtoany.com/buttons/for/website , you can also create subscription buttons here. Addtoany provides tools which includes size of buttons, an area from where you can add more buttons in your share bar etc.
