Code: Add a “Tweet This” Button

Twitter has taken the blogosphere by storm over the past year, causing many bloggers to look for ways to leverage additional traffic from others who use Twitter.     One of the best ways we’ve found to accomplish this is to add a “tweet this” link below your blog’s posts as a reminder to your readers to share what they just read with others!

If you’d like to add a “tweet this” button to your blog, it is extremely easy!   Here is the code you’ll want to use: 

<a href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Currently reading <?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="Click to send this page to Twitter!" target="_blank">Tweet This!</a>

Simply place that code below the content on your single post file where you want your new tweet this link to appear!
