  I know that there are no plug-ins I can install on a WordPress.com blog…such a shame!

  SO: how do I add Social Media icons, like the Sociable plug-in, to my posts on a WordPress.com blog??

  thanks very much, I’m almost done setting this blog up! But I really do need the Social Media!!

  thanks!!

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

  There are lots of different options, but of them all I like Getsocial, which was developed especially for WP.com by Hillel Stoller.

  Since i started using those buttons, my hits have gone up 20%.

  A picture is worth a thousand words. If you click the link and check it out you will find that there are small images that can be clicked by members of social networks that will help promote posts they discover and like.

  mx123: Try pasting the code into your post when on HTML edit mode :)
