If you want to quickly add some “social” aspects to your website, Twitter and Facebook are obviously the easy ones to start with. While there are many different ways to integrate these services with your site – if you want some quick, clean solutions, think about Widgets. Both services let you add a small box to your site (“widget”) which can contain a variety of content.
To get started with a Twitter Widget.. head over to http://twitter.com/widgets/ . Assuming you have a twitter account – you can customize the styling for these flashy little items and grab some code to add to your site.
For Facebook, “Fanboxes” are a nice feature. You first need a “page” for your website or business -assuming that’s in place, head over to http://www.facebook.com/facebook-widgets/fanbox.php … you can make a few edits and grab the code. There are several other options from Facebook, which you can review here.
More tightly integrated solutions are out there as well – such as allowing users to comment on your site content simply by logging into their Twitter/Facebook accounts, or even pulling your content into your Twitter feed or Facebook page.
Yo!! Great Site!!
Nice simple layout. I would love a hand with my new website. You’ll probably see my email for future correspondence.
