To make use of the right one, simply choose a plugin that stands out before your eyes. Here are a number that might impress you by integrating buttons for social sharing in posts and published content by encouraging the visitors to retweet, dig, vote or like what you have published.

WordPress Social Media Plugins

Sociable

This free plugin brings a number of social media buttons for sharing RSS feed, pages and posts. Most of the popular and highly used social networks are supported. The plugin is also repeatedly updated. As a user, you have the chance to use simple buttons and icons showing the different times a post has been liked, retweeted or shared.

You can easily change the tagline appearing above the buttons and icons within the settings. The sharing area is also easy to customize since you only need to know the website you would like to include. Icons order can also be changed by drag and drop.

Sharebar

Through the Sharebar plugin, an attractive bar is automatically added perpendicular to the right or left of your content or vertically under the content’s title. Through the use of PHP code you can also add Sharebar anywhere you might want within your WP site.

Within the settings you can disable or enable buttons easily. The order of the buttons can be rearranged by moving them up or down. However, Sharebar is yet to be updated since 2011 and some social services are not accommodated, such as Google Plus and LinkedIn.

ShareThis

ShareThis is a favorite sharing solution for many people across the world and around the internet with more than a million websites believed to be using it today. Apart from supporting new networking sites such as Google Plus, the plugin is very famous with Facebook users who use it to like and share information.

ShareThis comes with a number of displays, such as its admired classic button, assorted versions, vertical counts, horizontal counts and even large icons.  Through the settings you can set two modes with the multi-post choice, allowing visitors to a WordPress site to share posts without leaving the page.

You will find different WP social media plugins of various shapes, features and lengths. Whatever you stick with should offer you the different things you seek, such as ease of use, maneuverability of the plugin and whether it provokes the visitor to click it to share the content rather than copy the link.
