{Nuts and Bolts} Connecting with Your Blog Readers

Writing Prompt:

smarnad – http://freedigitalphotos.net

Write a post inviting your readers to connect with you. Show them how by pointing out where they can find your social media buttons and/or contact form.

In order for me to write this post I had to do some searching on Google for some social media icons for this blog. (referring to the blogger blog – this blog I use shareaholic plugin) How can I tell you to be sure to connect with your readers when I didn’t have a set of my own?

Oh, my, there are so many choices – coffee, owls, paper, grunge, techno, lego inspired, etc. How is a girl to choose?

I found the set I’m using from NiftyButtons.com. For those on blogger you can grab the code and add it into a gadget. Those on WordPress will grab the code and add it to a widget or you can follow this tutorial by Michelle Shaeffer.

  1. Thanks for the link and mention, Sara. :)

    I love how many cute social networking icons are out there now! I think my favorites personally are still the coffee cups and every time I see them I have the urge to redo my website so I can use them… LOL

    And yep, such an important piece to have on our blogs so readers can get in touch and connect. :)

    • Thank you for dropping by Michelle. I’m always telling my readers to follow your blog because you teach blogging so well. Plus, I love the coffee icons. :) Do need to stop linking out to you and other sites so much as I’m thinking that caused the spam bots to take down my blogger site. Oh well. I’m here now.
