Best Social Bookmarking Wordpress Plugin – Sociable WP Plugin

Did you notice that I have added some cool social bookmark icons to my blog ? A bunch of tiny bookmark icons was put at the bottom of each post. Here they are :

Sociable - Social Bookmarking for Wordpress blog

When you click on each icon, you will be taken to one of the many social bookmarking sites to submit your post.

Of course I can easily add more bookmark icons as I wish to any theme with some modifications on style.css file and others files such as index.php, single.php, …, I still do not choose this way. Because when I change to another themes, I must re-add the same code to each theme. So boring … Plugin is an excellent alternative. I came up with a few social bookmark plugins such as Social Bookmarks, Social Bookmark Links, Social Bookmarking RELOADED, … But Sociable WP plugin is my choice! Because it is beautiful, lightweight and easy to use :)

Introduction

Sociable is a wordpress plugin which adds social bookmark buttons to your posts, and does so easily, beautifully.

Install and Usage

1. Upload the whole plugin folder to the folder /wp-content/plugins/
2. Go to the Plugins page and activate the plugin.
3. Use the Settings page to change your options

Hint: Do not add so many bookmark icons because it does look a bit obnoxious for users. It also increase loading time of your page. The fix is so simple. You simply uncheck the ones you don’t want to use in Social WP Plugin admin.

You can see this plug-in in action right below this line. Test it by bookmarking this page !

    Thanks man. Thank you for letting me know about it. I tried a couple of other similar applications by googling for it but it didn’t work the way I wanted it to. And another one just plain didn’t work. It’s a beautiful application.

    It is much easier to use Premium Themes, similar plugins are built already in them

    There is a much easier way to drive this traffic to your blog. You have to be using Wordpress to take advantage of this. Word press is probably the most popular blogging platform, and it’s no wonder why that is. It requires a little more technical knowledge, but don’t be scared away. The benefits are far greater! Word press makes use of Plugins. Word press Plugins are basically little applications that perform a function or process. There are numerous Plugins that were made for Word press, and there will be many more no doubt. They all serve a different purpose.

    Sociable Social Bookmarking Wordpress Plugin version 3.0:

    - Fixed IE bug in admin
    - Cleaned up Admin Area and changed support messages. Removed directory checking for all images (speeds up incredibly)
    - Made display: inline !important to prevent vertical icon display.
    - Updated Wykop icon.

    Nice!

    is there a social bookmarking plug-in for Multiply? i guess Multiply is not very popular in the US but here in the Philippines, it’s quite popular.
