How to Put “Add This” On My Blog?

Add This is the number one social bookmarking and sharing button on the web. And yes, you can put it on your WordPress.com blog with minimal effort (although you do not get to use any of its javascript functionality). Here is what you need to do:

1) Go to the add this website :http://www.addthis.com/

2) Click Get Your Button.

3) Choose the following options:

What kind of button: Sharing/bookmarking button

Which look: Take your pick

Where: on a Blog.

4) Click Get Your Free Button.

5) Log in to your existing account. Or, create a free account if this is your first time visiting the site.

6) You will be given two boxes filled with the required code(s) for your blog. Copy the code from the first box ONLY.

7) Paste the code in the HTML editor of your post. Yes, it will strip out the javascript code that is found there; you will still get the Add This button, however, appropriately linked for your users to enjoy.

Notes: You cannot automatically add this button to all of your posts. Unfortunately, you must manually add the button to each post.
