About Share Buttons Maker

As you might have noticed, Google Sites doesn't come with built-in share buttons. To help you easily add this essential feature, we created the Share ButtonsMaker tool. With this tool, you can create beautiful share buttons and integrate them into your website.

How to use

1. Add Your Share Text and URL

Start by entering the share text, which will be displayed in the email, Twitter, and WhatsApp messages. Then, input the URL you want to share. This ensures that the correct link is shared across different social platforms.

2. Customize Your Buttons

Choose the colors that best fit your website's design.
Create squared or rounded icons, or get creative and design a unique style.
Change the size of your buttons to fit your needs.

3. Generate Your Widget Code

Once you're happy with the style of your buttons, simply click on "Generate Widget Code." This action will copy the generated code to your clipboard.

4. Embed the Code on Your Google Site

Head over to your Google Site and use the embed option to add the share buttons to any page where you need them. This straightforward process will enhance the functionality and interactivity of your site.Important NoteDue to Google Sites' embed restrictions, the widget cannot recognize the current page automatically. If you want to add a share widget to individual blog posts and pages, you need to generate a new code with the correct link for each post.We hope this tool helps you create a more engaging and shareable website.

Use Cases for Share Buttons

Boost Blog Engagement

Adding share buttons to your blog posts encourages readers to share your content on their social media platforms. This not only increases your blog's visibility but also drives more traffic to your site. A higher number of shares can significantly boost your blog’s credibility and reach.

Increase Product Visibility

If you run an online store, incorporating share buttons on your product pages allows satisfied customers to share their favorite items with their social network. This can lead to more referrals and potentially more sales as your products gain visibility across various social media platforms.

Promote Events

Organizing an event? Add share buttons to your event page to make it easier for attendees to share the event details with their friends and followers. This can help you reach a broader audience and increase attendance.

Enhance Newsletter Sign-ups

If you have a newsletter subscription form on your website, consider adding share buttons to your thank you page. Subscribers can then easily share their excitement about joining your newsletter, helping you attract more subscribers through word-of-mouth.

Educational Content

For educational websites and blogs, share buttons can help disseminate useful and informative content. Teachers, students, and enthusiasts can easily share articles, tutorials, and resources with their peers, extending the reach of your educational material.
