30 Days to a Better Blog: Tweet This

You’re on Twitter, right? Is your blog? Do you tweet your blog posts and allow others to easily tweet a link as well?

If so, well you’re well on your way to a better blog! If not, today’s the day you’re going to add a “Tweet This” button to your posts.

For WordPress, it’s as easy as installing a plugin. Once installed, you can edit various aspects, including where you want the button to appear on your site (top right of a post, bottom right, etc), what image or text to use, and you can even include your own Twitter handle as part of the tweet. Here are the top five Twitter plugins for WordPress:

• Tweet This
• TweetMeme
• Twitter for WordPress
• Twitter Tools
• WP Twitter

I’m not a Blogger user, so I researched ways to add a “Tweet This” button. Hopefully one of these will work (and please let me know if you know of a better set of instructions):
