“Do you ever wonder how you should use social media on your website?”

 

Many websites you visit usually have interesting social media icons displayed. Interestingly, In a recent study 25% of websites do not use social media icons, and 25% of those who do use social media icons, do not link to anywhere. 

 

Often you will see these social media icons in the upper right-had corner of websites and the usually link to a social media site, leading your away for their website. Huge Mistake! You want to use this valuable, top third, real-estate for Opt-Ins opportunity to gain contact information!

 

Points to remember:

• Use the top third of your site for opt-ins and gaining contact information
• Use the bottom of you page for your social media icons
• Do not use  your social media icon to send people away from your site 
• Set your icons to open in a new window and to your profile 
• Include a Facebook Like box on your page
• Insert a Facebook Like box embed codes in to you website! 

 

To get the Facebook Like box try googling Insert Facebook like box. This site will give you embed codes to insert a Facebook like box. This will allow people to like your page without leaving your website.  This also offers social proof and shows others who liked your page.
