You probably already know and use this pretty famous AddThis Sharing Buttons. Google Pagerank it's 10, and Alexa Ranknya about 158 (what's the relationship?). AddThis Social Sharing buttons are important widgets for bloggers and webmasters. This tool not only provides a variety of sharing buttons belong to various social media, but also comes with analytics features to monitor sharing activities. Of course this is very useful for bloggers / publishers to know the level of popularity of content in social media, to analyze and measure trends related to the content and topics being cultivated, and, of course, to measure how strong social media helps efforts to increase traffic and Maximize In Search Engine.
Well, in the process. AddThis has grown very rapidly, in the past year alone the number of users has doubled. And more greatly, recently AddThis sharing tools have evolved in stronger form, including the changes in the script used, the ease of use, the layout is more elegant, and has more features. Let's see!
What's New from AddThis?
The story, some time ago I wandered into AddThis because it has long not been looking at my website sharing activity on the service sharing website that is quite "senior" it. How surprised I am because when looking at the widget page there are some major changes that are quite clear from the previous widget. What interests me most is the layout design that looks fresh and fun. Sharing buttons look better and more precise. Email form also now has a new look. And another one, the dropdown menu that appears now uses HTML5 and JQuery and is asynchronous. That is, the loading required is very fast, much faster than the old widget sharing buttons.

And one more, users are now easier to share because buttons do not bring up new pages, all can be done from the same page and are part of AddThis buttons. Of course the user must be in AddThis login condition first. In addition, sharing to Pinterest is now much easier as once the Pinterest button is pressed, a lightbox gallery appears where the user can select which image to share.
How to Install Widget AddThis Sharing Buttons on Blogger
Installing this tool is easy and fast. You live settings on the settings page AddThis Button and live install it on the widget or template. For the second, the way is not different from how to install the widget sharing button I've shared first. Here we go:
1. Please go directly to AddThis Sharing Buttons settings page (oh yes, before I suggest to register to AddThis first) By becoming a registered user, you can organize and access information sharing activity very useful as analytical tool).
2. There are several options in the left corner to match the blog / website platform used. My advice, keep select "A Website" because we need this code if you want to install via edit HTML template, unless you want to use it as widgets / gadgets that stay installed only.
3. Select the desired widget sharing layout.
4. Take / copy code and save carefully.
5. If you want to install in the "gadgets" section, simply select the javascript HTML type, paste the code, and save.
6. If you want to install at the top or bottom of the post, note the following clue:
a. Entered into:
Template> click Edit HTML> Check (check) "Expand Widget Templates"b. If you want to install under the post title:
Search (Ctrl + F)<div class = 'post-header-line-1' />, put the script / code right in BELOW. If <div class = 'post-header-line-1' /> is not found, find <data: post.body /> and put the script / code right on the page.
c. If you want to install under posts / articles:
Search (Ctrl + F) <data: post.body /> then put the script / code right in BELOW.
d. Save template 'n see the result.
Yup, well done. Have a nice blogging and sharing!
