Addthis Pop-up Social Sharer Widget For Blogger

We all know that popups are really beneficial to get followers, likers and traffic and thats why tools like Hellobar is used by many. I also use Popups because my visitors give response more to popups rather than sliders or fixed content. Similarly its very hard to get content shared so popups work for it too. And its important to get content shared because more sharing equals to more traffic. Popup share buttons are not new, many of use have used them but popup have either 5 or 6 buttons so visitor is limited to share content only to some social networks and may be he or she is not using any of these networks so it will be a waste of time you will not get content shared.

So I brought you a new idea, Why don't we use addthis popup sharer, it has all social buttons plus it doesn't need long coding and too many scripts so it doesn't slow down our blogs. So in this post I am going to share addthis popup sharer along with some customization. So you can get popup by the time when you want.


How To Insall Addthis Pop-up Social Sharer Widget In Blogger ?

Step 1: Go to your blog theme and edit your HTML.

Step 2: Search For   </head> 

Step 3: Just above it paste the following script.

<script src='https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js'/>

Step 4: Now just below  </head>  paste the following code

<script>
$(function() {
    setTimeout(function() {
        $(&#39;.addthis_button_compact&#39;).trigger(&#39;click&#39;);
    }, 120000);
});
</script>

Step 5: Save theme and go to layout.

Step 6: Click on add a gadget and select HTML/Javascript.

Step 7: Paste below code in HTML/Javascript window.

<a class="addthis_button_compact"></a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=ra-55f1e2dc50b66fd0" async="async"></script>
});
</script>

Step 8: Save you gadget and view blog to see sharer popup.


Modifications:

You can't modify it too much because its all created by addthis, we are just automatically triggering it using the script in step 3 and step 4. When you add the script of step 7 in you layout you are actually adding addthis sharing button and by the scripts you are triggering it to popup, so if a visitor wants he can intentionally open the popup by clicking on addthis button  + 

To change popup time of widget, make changes in the highlighted[120000] part of code given in step 4. 120000 means 120 seconds = 2 mintues.
