    Can someone please tell me how to get the links to work in the widgets for “social media icons”?

    What is an example format of the username do I put the link for my facebook, instagram and pinterest page?

    Eg. My username is Sonia Catherine Photography. I’ve tried typing that. I’ve tried using the URL. I’ve tried using _ for spaces.
    All have not worked. I do not want to use individual widgets as I would like them all together in a row.

    Need some help..Many thanks!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Everyone in our field knows that inbound links are an important facet of search engine optimization (SEO) – search engines regard them as votes of approval from the linking sites. That’s why webmasters and optimizers invest so much work on link building.

    Unfortunately, with link building, you are usually left counting on someone else to do the job that’s so important to you. You actively ask another webmaster (or blogger, online author, or worse yet, a casual, social media user) to link to a page on your website. You depend on them to do the job right. You can even give them explicit instructions on the exact URL to use as part of your link building request. But unfortunately, while you can lead that horse to water, good luck in getting it to drink!

    The problem of broken inbound links is all too common. Your intent with link building is typically to promote a specific product, a download, a subscription, or something that is important to your site. Heck, you might even just be promoting your site for general public exposure.

    So what do you do when after making the big effort to find the right, relevant website, identifying the right technical contact on that site, and asking that person for a link, but they toss a typo in the URL that points to a non-existent page? shiromani akali dal
    If you spend many a good hour in the link building process, you’ll inevitably find a certain percentage of those efforts that should have been good instead will go for naught. Shiromani Akali Dal</white>
    And worse yet, once those bad links are published, if the linking site is an authority site with significant influence in your community on the Web (and isn’t that who we pursue for link building?), that broken URL may begin to propagate, unfixed, across the Web.
