Social media is one of the most effective and efficient ways to grow your audience. By implementing the social media follow widget in your blogger template, you are guaranteed that you will never miss people going to follow your work every day through the buttons widget. The clean and responsive look of the social media follow widget I want to share below will give your blogger template looking premium and user-friendly theme or generating more traffic through your social media handle.
Implementing the widget is as easy as adding the code that is below to a widget panel in the layout view of the template. Copy the code below and place it in the HTML/Javascript option in the sidebar widget.
