Add Floating Share Buttons To Your Blog’s Sidebar (For Blogspot)

Apart from working on traffic and search engine optimization (SEO), there’s a need to intergrate your blog with popular social networking platforms. A floating share buttons (social bookmarking) widget by the right of every page is just one of the gadgets you must add to your blog if you intend to get free traffic from facebook and twitter. Underestimating the power of share buttons is like neglecting a major source of traffic to your blog.

Having a floating share buttons widget makes it even easier for your blog visitors to share your blog posts they find interesting. Unlike the previous ones, it’s easy to get this done as you won’t need to do any sort of HTML editing on your template. The floating sidebar sharing widget comes with the most popular social sites. You can see the widget just at the right side of this page and it scrolls with the page, leaving your visitor no choice but to share your content.

How To Add Floating Share Buttons On The Sidebar
1. Log in to your blogger account and click on Design
2. You’re now looking at your blog’s layout, right? Click on Add A Gadget on the sidebar.
3. Select HTML/Java Script
4. Paste the code below into the box and save. There’s no need for a title.

5. Save the widget and preview your blog.
If you already have a google plus button above or below your posts, the one in the widget might not appear. It seems you can’t have two +1 buttons on a page.
If you’re using a dark template, you can try out the code below if you don’t quite like the first one:
