AddThis is a social sharing and demographics monitoring tool that you can install on your blog or website. It's available as a plugin for WordPress but you can also install it on your Blogger blog, website or newsletter. To give you an idea of how huge the AddThis social sharing platform is, these stats are taken directly from their website:
“Here's AddThis by the numbers:
- 14 Million Sites: AddThis social plugins and analytics are used by over 14 million sites worldwide.
- 1.3 Billion Users: AddThis reaches 1.3 billion unique users worldwide monthly through the sites that use our platform.
- 10 Terabytes of Data: AddThis plugins are loaded over 3 billion times a day, generating 10 terabytes of data daily. That’s as much data as a digital Library of Congress weekly.
- 500 Brands: AddThis Social+ audiences enable over 500 brands to reach the right audiences at the right time across the web via real-time bidding platforms.”
Plugin To Your Audience With AddThis
Take a moment to imagine all of the data that is being collected from all of the websites around the globe with the AddThis tracking codes installed. This should give you a pretty good idea about how using AddThis on your blog can give you an in-depth understanding of your audience so you can target your message in a way that resonates with them.
Do you want to know what social network is giving you the most bang for your buck?
Want to find out when someone actually clicks on your links from Facebook or Twitter?
AddThis is the perfect tool for tracking social engagement and providing insights that other social sharing plugins like Digg Digg can't capture. Let me put it a different way, some plugins will give you social proof and display the number of people sharing your content, AddThis takes it a step further and shows you where the traffic is coming from based on the links people are sharing.
Even more simply – what shared links convert into blog traffic!
Take a look at this video I recorded as I demonstrate the wealth of information we can learn from the AddThis analytics reports.
AddThis Plugin for WordPress Monitor Social Engagement on Your Blog
In the video I give you a tour of the various dashboards and metrics you can monitor from the AddThis website. We looked at these reports:
- Summary – the daily shares and clicks
- Content – trending blog posts
- Audience – learn what interests your audience and to what degree
- Services – which services are used to share your content
- Geography – what is being shared by country
I recommend that you install the plugin and let it collect data about your site over at least a four week period or even longer before you begin to take steps to tweak your message and get closer to the needs of your target audience. The reports on the dashboard will help you make crucial decisions about the content you're publishing on your blog and also improve your social and subscription calls to action.
New: The AddThis Welcome Bar
Not long after I posted the video on YouTube, Kori from AddThis reached out to me. She was really excited to learn that I was spreading the word about AddThis and she so thoughtful and kind that she hooked me up with some “schwag” and you can see all the goodies she sent in this pic I took.
Kori also told me to the new AddThis Welcome Bar which is a separate plugin or script that you can run on your site. She goes into detail about the Welcome Bar on the company blog which you can check out for more information.
You can get the click tracking to see right away when any of your content is going viral.
One last thing before I forget – I love the way AddThis connects directly with Bit.ly and StumbleUpon too. Bit.ly revamped their interface and so did StumbleUpon so this is a really nice integration. It's much easier to find the StumbleUpon links when I want to share them over on the Social Buzz Club and the link to the Bit.ly reports are an added bonus.
Get AddThis!
Give the AddThis Plugin a try and find out which social networks are really sending traffic to your blog. I know that it can be so overwhelming at times to decide where to focus your attention and in the long run your decision making process will be a lot easier after you let AddThis collect some valuable data for you. Knowledge is power and the more you can learn about your audience the more you can use that information to your advantage. Let me know how you make out with AddThis or if you have any questions about what I covered in the video.
Yeah! no doubt in it that Addthis Social Plugin have acquired the large part of globe. I really love this plugin. The Plugin works very well. It Monitor Social Engagement on Your Blog. Thank You Madam Ileane For sharing this info.
Hi Dilawer, you are very welcome. Thanks for stopping by.
The more data we have the better we produce more of the stuff that gets shared the most. basically working less, but more smartly. Nice share Ileane.
We’re using this already. Not as an extension, but as part of the follow up from our Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc campaigns that are ongoing.
It’s not enough nowadays just to rely on Google, but to continue to engage with your clients after their visit. AddThis does it for us!!
I was using the AddThis code, but never took advantage of the statistics that it provides. I did not install the plugin, I just copied and pasted the code into my theme. I liked it because it was easy to use. But I never took advantage of the statistics that it provides. I switched to the DiggDigg plugin to see if I would get more shares. Which is more effective? Can I use booth? Thanks for this Ileane.
Larry, yes, you can use both. Please watch the video when you have time and you’ll see that I am using DiggDigg and AddThis. 🙂
I have watched out the video while reading this post! Really awesome plugin it is!
Hi Ileane,
very very well done. I’m going to start visualization now. WOW, this is amazing.
It sounds quite interesting what you wrote about feeds. I never read such an elaborated articles.Thanks for sharing your precious thoughts for increasing the visitors.I will surely share this to my other friends.
Bhushan, did you plan to leave this comment on a different post…..
I tried it once, but it is not for me. I tired to make a different layout out of it, and couldn’t figure it out at all.
Digg Digg is best social sharing platform, but it does not have the statistics addthis provides.
Samuel, I use the DiggDigg plugin for sharing on my blog also. But I use AddThis for the insights and evaluating the ROI of the social networks I frequent. Did you notice the DiggDigg sharing bar here?
Oh yes I did. I know you use it. Digg Digg is great.
Ok, great! I didn’t understand when you said you tried to make a different layout of it. Where you using the script or the plugin? I think it might be easier to configure with the script. Well, if you are using DiggDigg for sharing you don’t need to worry. But you can still have the tracking with AddThis using the script as well.
Hey Ileane,
This is such a wonderful tool. I know many people are blogging for business and therein you have to know where your audience is coming from and what kind of people are interested in what you have to blog about. Identifying your target audience is a crucial step in letting the word out and tapping into the potential of more customers.
This plugin will definitely be easy for people who want to expand their business online and see whether they are taking it to the right audience!
That’s exactly right Harja. I knew that you would understand where I was coming from with this post. Thanks for that. 🙂
AddThis is one of those plugins that has been around for awhile and it doesn’t have mass appeal with bloggers in our circles. But when it comes to websites, many have been using AddThis from day one. That’s where all the data is coming from. Bloggers will catch on sooner or later (maybe after they read this post) 🙂
Hi Ileane,
I had never heard of the AddThis plugin before (and I use a lot of plugins), but you have certainly sold me on at least giving it a try.
I have not really been tracking my social engagement on my site, and this plugin looks like it is going to help me a lot.
Thanks for sharing 🙂
Scott, I have a confession to make. In the past I always thought that ShareThis and AddThis were one in the same. It kind of embarrassing but it’s true. As it turns out since ADD and SHARE are two different words, they are actually two different plugins. LOL
I hope you got the joke there 🙂
I’m glad I got that off my chest.
Informative post Ileane!
I had heard a lot about AddThis earlier, but because I already have DiggDigg, I never really went ahead and thought of putting it up. I guess I really didn’t know where or how to place it, or if I could use it along with DiggDigg. But I like the video that you always do up so well, explaining how we can have it at the footer and on side as well.
I like the concept of sharing all the details of social media that this application does, which DiggDigg doesn’t do. Heading right over to give it a detailed look. 🙂
Thanks so much for sharing and letting us all know about this wonderful plugin. 🙂
Hi Harleena, Thanks so much for watching the video. AddThis is one of those plugins you need to see in action rather than just a plain text blog post. Let me know how it works out on your blog.
Hello Ileane,
This is really a great Article with very well summarized. I like the video which is explaining how to use Add this plugin in your website. I have been using digg digg and sexy bookmarks plugins for social sharing. 🙂
I hope i will get more information from your blog.
Thanks
Supertintin
I used to be a fan of Sexy Bookmarks but I don’t recommend it anymore. I much rather use Digg Digg for sharing because it floats down the page and reminds people to share no matter where they are in the post. Thanks for your comment.
Excellent post, Ileane.
I’ve never used Addthis plugin on my blog, but it seems like a fantastic plugin that every blogger should give a try to.
I’m going to test this plugin tonight and see how it works. Thanks so much for sharing your insights on Addthis plugin. Great work, Ileane.
Devesh, AddThis is one of those plugins you should try for awhile and if you don’t like getting all of that data you can remove it. Since I’m a social media ninja, I always need to have some tricks to pull out of my bag. 🙂
Addthis looks like a great plugin to check social media engagement on our blogs. I have been using it for few months and completely satisfied with it
Hey Ileane,
I was using Addthis plugin on my blog since I first started blogging, but a couple of weeks ago someone suggested me to remove addthis plugin because it makes a blog slow load because it is heavy plugin.
So, the question is, Will addthis makes a blog slow load?
Ehsan, if it does make my blog run slower, I’ll contact the support team over at AddThis and I’m sure they will look into asap! I’m really glad that I am connected with some of their staff so that I can reach out if I have problems. Thanks for your feedback.
You mean I have to go to their website and contact them if I have any problem or question regarding the plugin?
Ehsan, I mentioned that I would give you a hand. OK?
Excellent writeup & presentation, Ileane.
I have been using Digg Digg on my blog & was looking for an better tool, Now I think addthis works for me.
Chris, you really can replace DiggDigg with AddThis but I didn’t want to do that for now. Keep me posted on how it goes.
This plugin is very complex and interesting. From my experience, analyzing the data is essential to understand the strong and the week points of a blog, therefore Addthis plugin is a great tool.
Julian, bloggers and webmasters need to stop and do some analysis of their traffic at least once a month. Once a week would be much better though. Great point!
Hi Ileane,
I did vote for you. I am thinking of trying this plugin to see how it works. I’m currently using diggdigg. Thanks for the info. Sally
BTW, where would I find some info regarding adding a podcast from time to time to my site. Thanks.
Hi Sally,
Here’s my blogpost and podcast about starting a podcast https://basicblogtips.com/podcast-listed-in-itunes.html
Best wishes! I think you will love doing it.
I think I’ve tried every sharing plugin available, and AddThis has definitely been one of the better choices out there. The only thing that is sometimes annoying is that I often accidentally move my mouse past an addthis area on a site, causing the dropdown box to open, which can hide the content under it, and it sometimes doesn’t go away very easily. Other than that, AddThis has a lot going for it.
I, of course, voted for you, Ileane, but I didn’t realize I could vote daily, so I’ll try to remember to continue doing so.
Hey Donna,
I’m not using AddThis for sharing, I’m only using the tracking and demographics for now.
Thanks for the votes Donna! I really appreciate that.
Dear Ileane I really don’t like the digdig plugin, I find the bar obstructive. I can’t help myself looking at it. The bar seems to follow you. I must sat that this addthis seems like a decent plugin with stats so its something different. Thanks for pointing this one out.
Hi Shalu, I’m glad you mentioned that the bar is obstructive. What size monitor do you use or are you on mobile? Thanks for the feedback!
You are so right Puneet. It’s been around for ages, but learning about AddThis was like a brand new world to me.
ofcourse Puneet, Ileane add this is awesome plugin for social buttons. the best one.
Addthis is a great bookmarking service. I use it to bookmark other people’s stuff while I do blog hopping and commenting. But I have never used the plugin on my own site. I use DiggDigg instead. Will try this out in my niche sites to see how it works for me 🙂 Thanks Ileane.
Jane, AddThis has an extension for Google Chrome and I guess it would be handy. I have so many sharing extensions now I’m not sure sure I want to try another one. Please keep me posted on how you like the plugin on your niche sites.
Indeed an interesting tool, looks like they innovate with great feature given to its users. I’ll install this on my blog. Thanks for sharing this resource.
Hi Ileane!
No doubt the plugin seems to be looks stunning and the figures you have provided all are awesome but you know using plugins can harm your website a great deal that’s why I am little curious about using it and before I get a try I want to ask you did you use it yourself?
Ayaz, I’m using it now. I demonstrate how I’m using it here on Basic Blog Tips in the video and hopefully you’ll get a chance to watch it soon. It’s working great.
Hi Ileane,
I haven’t used AddThis before but after watched your tutorial, I’ll recommend every to use AddThis and I personal use Sharebar which is also a create tool too.
Thanks – Ferb
Hi Ferb, I was using ShareBar before I switched to DiggDigg. ShareBar doesn’t include some of the sites I want as defaults. For instance Blog Engage, Google+1 and Pinterest need to be added manually and that was getting to be a drag.
Hi Ileane,
There is no secret to why AddThis plugin has so many users – With all the advantages it offers to not only webmasters but to users as well. Having the ability to easily share content across the web has a lot of business advantages – to users and webmasters alike if done the right “targeted” way.
Anton, you hit the nail on the head when you said “targeted” because AddThis gives you a huge advantage in this area. You can find out so much about your audience and their interests just by using the tracking features like I’m doing. It’s a really cool plugin for marketers. I appreciate your comments Anton, chat soon!
Hi Ileane,
Instead of adding plugins we can just grab the code and place. To load more faster we can add Javascript defer tag as well. Between i am impressed with your youtube video has options of awber, etc. how did you do that ?
Great post Ileane 🙂
Suresh, you’re absolutely right, we can use the code instead of the plugin. Personally I’m not too keen about using code, I’m a plugin person lol!
The video widgets are courtesy of Viewbix and you can see my tutorial in this blog post https://basicblogtips.com/viewbix.html
Thanks for your input Suresh.
Hi, Ileane..
Though some folks claim that this plugin is not new ,for me it’s somewhat new! The data which It provides is indeed helpful in tracking and managing the traffic and as a matter of fact we all know that data driven management is useful for a successful blogging! I would like to give it a try ! Thanks Ileane
Adrian, AddThis has been around for awhile and looking at their plugin page in the WordPress repository, it was introduced during WP 2.7
Ileane,
Great breakdown on AddThis… I’ve tried the tool and though I know they’ve made a bunch of changes to improve their service I keep coming back to Digg Digg.
I’m sure that I’ll be looking to change again in the future and I’ll give AddThis a look.
Thanks!!
Ryan H.
Hi Ryan, you might end up doing what I’ve done and use both DiggDigg and AddThis. Let me know if you try it.
Hey Ileane! I see you figured out a way to talk about AddThis without it being so daunting! 🙂 There really is a lot of great info that AddThis brings, even if it’s not used as a regular social sharing tool.
I was so busy with getting my new site up that I didn’t have time to try this out yet, but I definitely will, very soon!
Thanks, Ileane!
Hi Morgan, lol. It was fun to chat with you on the phone weeks ago and tell you about AddThis.
You got a preview before I had a chance to share with everyone else and you helped me work it out in my head. Thanks for that my friend!
Best wishes on your new site!
Hi Ileane,
Thanks for this post and video. I looked into this some time back but it looks like it has some better updates now. Like you though, I don’t like their sharing icons and I also have Digg Digg.
Now I can see on Google Analytics where my traffic is coming from so I know which social media sites are my top ones. I also know from my social icons that my posts are being shared as well so I guess the graphs would help for more visual stats.
Thanks for sharing this and I may have to look into it again. When I have some time.
Have a great day young lady and I appreciate this!
~Adrienne
Hi Adrienne, I’m using the social media tracking info from Google Analytics also. The added benefit from AddThis is I can see what some of the interests are of my audience and the other types of content they are consuming. And because Twitter isn’t one of the social hub partners you can’t see who is Tweeting your articles from inside Google Analytics. I really like the integration with AddThis and bit.ly and I’m starting to use bit.ly more just for that reason.
AddThis lets me easily find the StumbleUpon link which is a huge plus too!
Thanks for your comment Adrienne. Let me know if you end up giving it a try.
Hey Ileane, well I just started out with blogging and just wanted to thank for the heads up on this plugin.
I was gonna start experimenting with social media, I guess it would be pretty easy now. 😀
Ileane,
Each time I come to your blog I am learning something new. I have to tell you how grateful I am to you for all the content you give.
This plug in sounds awesome. I have to get right on it! I’ve heard of Addthis, but not in detail like you have explained here.
I thank you for the learning curve once again,
Donna
Hi Donna, I appreciate you for saying that! I always try to come up with something out of the ordinary just to keep things fresh. Thanks so much.
I have heard of ShareThis and have used similar ones before, but not AddThis specifically, I will have to put this on my list to review myself in the upcoming days. Thanks for the showcase, clearly tracking all your analytics in one place is a huge plus, currently I have different analytics on Hootsuite, Bit.ly, Su.Pr…etc and trying to keep track of it all.
Justin, I was making the big mistake of thinking that AddThis and ShareThis were one in the same. It’s possible you were getting them confused also because AddThis has a bigger share of the market and we see it all of the time on websites. I’m looking forward to seeing your review – please @mention me whenever you post it. Thanks for your comment Justin!
Good amount of people are recommending this product, need to check it myself.
Hello Ileane, long time no see. Those are really impressive figures but it’s a fact that AddThis is really useful.
Hi Ileane,
on my website I am using ShareThis, but had some problems recently with it. Thanks for showing us the Add This plugin. Maybe it can replace the one I am using with less problems,
Cheers
Drake
Hi Ileane
I have never heard of this plugin and it looks amazing.
Thanks also for the tip on the DiggDigg plus in. I am using Sexy Bookmarks now but have not been happy with it for a while.
I love your blog and it is clearly a place to come for blogging tips 🙂
Thanks Ileane
Sue
Been using Digg Digg for a while now, might try addthis on my next project. Seems it fills the client requirement. Thanks Illeane
Hi Ileane,
You shared outstanding plugin for monitoring social engagements. Very well and detailed post. I have never heard about this plugin now going to add in my blog soon.
Thanks for sharing
I have been a fan of AddThis from very beginning. I used its social sharing plugin and have recently added it to my new website. It makes life so much easier. I am gonna try the new welcome bar plugin, its looks amazing on the top.
Suroor, you sound like you are on top of the whole AddThis phenom – good for you! I really like that welcome bar and it will be interesting to play with the color combinations and different messages to see which one works best. Can’t wait to do some experiments. Maybe I can convince them to allow us to do some additional split testing!
Thanks Ileane for this beautiful post, attraction of media in my blog the plug ins is very much important.
Wow, this is a fortuitous post, Ileane, because my husband and I were just looking at this a few days ago and wondering if it was any good. Thanks to your thorough overview, now I know. If you’re a total data geek like me, all those numbers are like candy. I also use the diggdigg plugin so it’s cool to know you can use both. Honestly, I’m not attached to any particular plugin but the problem is that once you switch you lose all those shares 🙁 Someone needs to figure out a way to import them from one plugin to another so you don’t zero out every time you try something new. Thanks for your super review. I’m bookmarking this for reference!
Hi Carol Lynn, I didn’t realize that your husband was a data geek like us. I can’t even get my friend to sit in front of the monitor long enough to read a blog post. lol
I’m surprised to hear you say that you switched plugins and lost Facebook shares. When I switched from ShareBar to DiggDigg I didn’t lose a thing. Which plugins are you referring to? That shouldn’t happen.
As long as you keep AddThis running in the background at least you’ll know what’s what.
Hey Ileane,
Thanks for the great detailed explanation. You’ve got to love the stats you get with Addthis.
I love plugins, they’re the beauty of WordPress, but as we all know, there are tons of them out there and not all of them are coded well, nor do they work like you would expect.
If you don’t mind me asking, how many plugins do you use and do you notice that they affect your response time at all?
Liz 🙂
Liz, lets just say that I use way too many. lol
I hesitate to give you a number because I’m always testing plugins so I can review them and let you guys know what works and what doesn’t so I might have 20 today and 25 tomorrow. @Sureshpeters mentioned in an earlier comment that you can install the AddThis code directly without the need for a plugin so if you have concerns I agree that you should use the code instead.
As far as response time goes, I haven’t noticed any lags but you can always use a tool called Pingdom to find out which plugins are causing the blog to run slow. I’ve always found that any sharing tools or plugins related to Facebook caused slowness but I think that has gotten better now that they have an official plugin.
I have this plug-in and it works great. Is there a plug-in for Like Us on Facebook for them to like my business page?
Sandy, yes they sure do! In fact one of the follow buttons that I have in my sidebar is for my Facebook page and it is the one that gets the most clicks. 🙂
Very interesting, Ileane. My question is if it would affect the performance of CommentLuv? I recently tried to use another social sharing plugin in my blog recently, but it seemed it was interfering with the performance of CommentLuv (a lot of my visitors were complaining that it wasn’t running). Would definitely appreciate your input on this regarding AddThis.
Adeline, we’ve extensively tested the plugin called “Digg Digg” and I really suggest you use that for the majority of your social shares. I would start there and consider this as supplementary. It should not interfere with commentluv however if you find it is, and you isolate it so that you know it’s only this, then taking that information to Andy, who wrote commentluv would be really appreciated by all of us. (Actually, you should tell him about which plugin you had issues with… though most likely it was that plugins fault and not his… it’s still good for him to know what’s up). Try support.commentluv.com
Kim
Thanks so much for replying, Kim! I actually got quite surprised when I started having problems with Digg Digg, seeing that it’s also being used by CommentLuv users. I’ll visit the site you suggested right now.
Ileane is using the ajax float successfully however many people I know have had random issues with the float option. I don’t usually advise using ajax if you have mobile readers since ajax does not work in most mobile browsers. If you were using the float last time revert back to the normal and see if that straightens things out. If it doesn’t Andy will definitely want to know this as literally A LOT of us use it. It’s really top in the industry at the moment (though admittedly even it sometimes has its hiccups).
Kim
Hi Adeline, I’m so glad that Kim was able to respond to you before I did. Thanks Kim, you’re awesome!
Kim you mentioned mobile user, do those first two sharing buttons show up at the top of the post on your iPhone (Twitter and Facebook like?) I’m hoping those two are good for now until Hesham has a chance to integrate Google+1 in ThesisAwesome. I don’t have a smartphone and I keep forgetting to ask my daughter….
Thanks again Kim!
Ileane these are some screenshots for you. They are as “zoomed out” as possible in all the the view of the comments area. I zoomed in on the comments area to show you the form was intact. These are from my Android using “Dolphin Browser” (top android browser currently)
http://ow.ly/i/P7oa/original
http://ow.ly/i/P7oc/original
http://ow.ly/i/P7od/original
http://ow.ly/i/P7oe/original
http://ow.ly/i/P7of/original
Once zoomed in on slightly, the twitter button and like button at the top of the post both work in the mobile browser.
The like button “just works” and the tweet opens a new tab to m.twitter.com with the tweet box set up. Both correct behavior.
This plugin is nice, I will try it. Thanks for sharing Addthis plugin………
Add this is one of the most used social plugin on WordPress, no doubt its already a leader. Thanks for this awesome article.
Hi Miss Ileane! I’ve heard about AddThis from quite a few people! I guess I have to give it a try now! BTW, the Schwag looks amazing! Thumbs up to those shades!
PS – I have a giveaway on my blog ESPECIALLY for NEW BLOGGERS! I’m giving away 5 Blog Engage Accounts! So please visit there and share it so that new bloggers can be benefited!
Hi Raaj, thanks for sharing the info about your contest. I’d love to see some of my friends get their hands on a Blog Engage account for free.
And this is why I get posts you author directly in my inbox!
I had some social buttons left over from a ThesisAwesome skin and wasn’t real sure what I wanted to do with them.
Then I wasn’t sure where I was going to put MORE buttons to, well, literally, AddThis!
A simple code swap and I swapped those out for these. I may or may not continue to have them at both the top and bottom (partially because that’s making 2 calls to the script currently and I’m not sure if their script is smart enough to handle that… but it didn’t crash… so so far I’m in luck!)
Boom, boom, boom! Done!
Hi Kim, I’m honored to make an appearance in your inbox 🙂
Let’s get together on a Hangout and chat about our finding from AddThis and which of our posts are being shared more often. OK?
Thanks for stopping by Kim.
Definitely would be fun to do. However, I also have Chris Lang’s product/project and I need to get that script thingy set up for tracking social stuff as well. I just haven’t made time to do it. Would probably be best if I had those numbers to go with these numbers and had 30-60 days of data to be able to really evaluate anything.
Kim
Let’s think about doing something at the end of August ok? I agree that it makes more sense to evaluate how useful the data is after you have it installed for at least a month. That’s exactly what I did with AddThis and I wish I would have waited until after I installed the Welcome bar too. I guess I can do a follow up post at some point or save it for our little chat!
One more great plugin for my WordPress blogs! Ileane thank you for this video tutorial, they are always the best way how to learn using the new stuffs.
I’ve been using Addthis for a while now in my main blog. Before I’ve tried other social plug ins but they are not as good looking as addthis and has much lesser functions. With Addthis, I’ve managed to get a lot more social shares in my blog posts. I’m currently trying Sharethis in my other blog to see how would this fair with Addthis.
Hi Mam, I never used AddThis plugin in my blog. As i heard this is the great plugin in which i should give it a try. Thanks a lot for sharing this info.
Addthis plugin sounds great.. It’s a good tool to observe the performance of our plugin. I must use it in my WordPress plugin thanks for sharing.
Hi Ileane!
Just want to thank you for everything that I have learned from you…
Just started my new blog and you are one of the bloggers I got inspiration from…
This is another great post that I am going to benefit from…
A big THANK YOU…
This sounds like something I’d really like using, sadly it doesn’t seem to want to work with my Thesis theme. 🙁
Hey Dean, I’m using Thesis but I don’t have any issues. What kind of error message are you getting from AddThis?
No error message, just nothing shows up on the posts. I’m using BlogSkin, I’m obviously missing something simple. 🙂
I’m having the same issue when I attempted to add it. Nothing shows up – is there something I should have explicitly ignored in order to get this to work?
The problem is there is so much being tweaked (on my site) I dunno if it’s an issue with Thesis, a Plugin Conflict, or how I’m caching the site!
I have never used this type of wordpress plugin but i think it will be quiet a wort using this plugin. I will try adding this and will contact you if i get any type of problem. While thanks for this awesome information.
Add This is a great social sharing button that can be used many different ways. I like the fact that it has all of the social bookmarking sites built in that saves the reader time.
This is the nicest share/bookmark plugin I’ve used yet but it is not showing icons in home page ? any way or setting ?
This is a very interesting topic. I always want to be able to connect with everyone on social media, as I think it’s one of the most important things that you should be focusing on in getting traffic. This was a great point!
no doubt addthis plugging is acquired more social network very quickly i am impressed with your blog views thanks for all about .
Thanks… I enjoy watching your video. Very helpful.
Thank you i recently added this plugin!
AddThis is a social sharing tool that can be install on blogger blog ,website or newsletter
Currently I am using Digg-Digg on my blog. I will try AddThis to see if it’s better than Digg-Digg. Thanks Ileane for writing about it.
Hi I am using ADDTHIS on my site. I put in the code manually into my scripts section in Thesis theme.
But I don’t like that it shows the float bar in phones…and it obstructs everything.
Do you know if there is a way to manipulate the code to not show it on phones???
Thanks in advance
Leon
Leon, thanks for the heads up on this. I’m not sure how to fix this one.
Great Information Ileane, Thank for sharing such nice information. I have added add this plugin on my blog but I am aware about this fact. Thanks..:)
