    Hi,

    First of all, I want to apologise if this question has already been asked before (I couldn't find it!).

    I will be launching my website soon and I want to include some social media buttons: FB, Twitter, Google+ and maybe one or two more.

    How can I achieve this? Is there any step-by-step beginners guide that explains this?

    I came across the website addthis.com but I don't understand: don't I have to link my webpages (for example my Facebook page) to these buttons? :eek:



    Thank you!

    open the web which you choose, n try to find the button code. Paste where u want to place, as side bar or another place.

    If you use Wordpress you can install a plug in to add them. There are lots to choose from and the ones I use are very simple to install.

    I second that. addthis is by far the easiest to add to any website. Be aware that it can slow your site loading.
