How To Put Social Bookmarking Buttons On Your Blogger

I've always wondered how to put those neat little social bookmarking icons at the end of each post. If you take a look at the end of each of my posts, you will see a row of icons.

Here's a little guide to adding these social bookmarking buttons to your posts
  1. First off, you need to download the icons. Right-click each icon and save it to a folder somewhere.
  2. Open a photobucket.com account and upload the icons there.
  3. Follow the resources at this blog: Adding Social Bookmarking Buttons To The NEW Blogger!
  4. Add the code to your template between the "div class='post-footer'" tag
  5. Save changes and enjoy!
You may have also noticed that I have a digg link at the beginning of each post. Here's the guide:
  1. Open your Blogger Template by editing the HTML
  2. Do a search for "data:post.body". This contains the content of your post. You will be placing the code after this tag.
  3. Follow the resources at this blog: Add Digg button to Blogger or Blogspot
  4. Save changes again and enjoy!
Start by "Digging" this post and clicking on your favorite Social Bookmarking icons below!

I changed the site to

It's the other site I was using reference to. I like the other one better though. Oh well.

Thanks for letting me know!
