An Easy Way to Promote Your Content
AddThis is a free service that provides a easy way for people to share your content or bookmark your page. AddThis generates a small bit of code that can be added to your website, blog or enewsletter. Users can then share your content on popular sites like Delicious, MySpace, Facebook and Digg or save your page as a favorite in their web browser.
Sharing your content expands the number of people your message reaches and can even generate more traffic to your site and improve your search engine ranking. AddThis can be added to any page or pages on your site. You can even track how users are sharing your content with AddThis' free analytics.
Below is what your AddThis button would look like. Give it a try!
