One way to get your blog to grow is add social bookmarking buttons to your Blogger Blogspot blog. In an earlier article I wrote about the simplest way to place social media on a Blogger blog - that is to add an all-in-one Add This social bookmarking button.
However, as one size doesn't fit all situations there may be lots of times when you would prefer to add individual social bookmark buttons to your Blogger blog. That's why I have put together this list of useful free social bookmarking button sets. All are free to use on a personal blog and most have no restrictions for commercial use either but please do double check the license when you download them if you want to use the buttons commercially.

Nice sets of buttons. But I'm using Add This Button on my blog. I find very helpful articles on your blog and I've bookmarked your blog.
I like your blog and wanted to ask you that when did you start this blog and how much visitors do you get on this blog per day?
Do reply me at my email id:

Mohammad thanks for your praise of my blog. I started my blog back in March as I remember but I think I backdated some of my posts. Officially I have been going about 6 months now. I will be writing some pointers on how I have built traffic in an article shortly so watch out for that. In the meantime I will email you as well
Great list of icon.
i need to ask something.
after downloading the icon, how do i put it on my blog?
Ichiziro you will need to select a set of buttons. You will need to upload each button image somewhere on the internet and take note of the location for each. Then use the code in my article about adding social bookmarking buttons to Blogger changing the URL address for each button.
