Socializing a blog is the most efficient way to get a reach of people instantly so making a blog social media friendly is very important which lets people engaged with your blog to share your articles with others. Making a site social media friendly needs addition of social media buttons so its really important to install social media buttons in sites especially sites which have content that is readable.
Although social media buttons are installed in every site/blog below articles or above articles but advanced sharing tools aren't common. Advanced sharing tools means sharing buttons in each and every thing such as images.
Images not only put interest in boring articles but also play a major role in bringing traffic from search engines and social networks. So installing social media share buttons in images to make them shareable is very effective to get more traffic from search engines and social networks as most of people follow images to reach its source.
So i brought you "on-hover share buttons" which appear when mouse is hovered on an image. It is very similar to Pinterest on hover "pin it" button. But that is just a single button so i brought you more buttons which show on hovering an image. It will make your images shareable as well as make your blog design impressive and will increase your traffic too as people will reach your articles by following images, these buttons will not share only images but also source link of images so you will get more reach to your articles.
These sharing buttons are powered by addthis. So credits goes to addthis.
