Twitter is one of the fastest growing social networks in the recent days. Many feel it drives a lot of traffic to their blog, especially when they have a large number of followers. We should some how use this twitter to improve traffic to our blog. So, how are we going to do that? Simple, just by adding a "Tweet This" link to our blogger posts. There are certain blogs that include Tweet this in the footer of their posts, that is, at the end of the post as a social bookmarking icon. But I recommend you to place it at the top, next to the title of your post.
This post basically explains, how to add tweet this and also a retweet button to blogger posts. Many blogs have links only for "Tweet this" but not for "ReTweet". This post includes both Tweet and ReTweet option, there by, driving more traffic to your blog and making your posts more effective. This service is provided by Tweetmeme. Check the official page by clicking on the link here: Tweetmeme. The final output after installation will generate a button as shown in the picture. Fine. Enough of bla bla bla.. Let us get in to our work. Follow these steps.
1. Login to your dashboard. Navigate to "Layout>>Edit HTML" from your dashboard. Make a back up of your template before you do any changes in the template.
2. Now, expand your template, that is, make sure that you have a tick mark in that "Expand Widget Template". Now, do a search using "CTRL+F" for the following line, if you want to show the button below the title of your post:
<div class='post-header-line-1'><div class='post-body entry-content'><div style='float:right; margin-left:14px;'>
<script type="text/javascript">
tweetmeme_url = '<data:post.url/>';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
tweetmeme_url = '<data:post.url/>';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"></script>
</div>
