Alright, well we’ve been talking about generating traffic through social media as part of our traffic section of the better – Blog Better series. And today I wanted to talk about social sharing plugins, social media dashboads and other tools. I posted an article again on 70 of these – over 70 of them and so I’m going to talk about a bunch of those right now as well as share with you some social sharing tips that I collected and so let’s jump into that.
