  How do I get social media icons on my blog, I see some with a row of icons on the homepage. Do some themes already come with these? Facebook,twitter, instagram, pinterest, Google plus icons etc?

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

  Yes, some themes come with the icons as a feature.

  If your theme does not have it, you can do it manually using (for example) a text widget. It can be a bit complicated if you’re not comfortable writing HTML, though.

  Thank You! I guess I need to search for a theme somehow that already has the icons as I am not very comfortable with HTML. Thanks Is there i specific way to search for themes with the icons?

  I got some result searching for “social” here http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/search/social/, but there has to be more.

  Searching for “social icons site:theme.wordpress.com/themes” on Google (try it out, without the double quotes) returns more results.
