Share-It Widgets

While we keep seeing the share widgets and apps across the hundreds of pages we visit each day, not always do we bother paying attention on the usage criteria of these widgets. Not unless you are an user and gets upsets over the time and number of clicks that it takes to share a piece of article that you found interesting enough to share with your friends. 

While if you are a site or blog owner who pt ta share widget on her pages (or even the 'share it' widgets developers) you would certainly like that the experience is good so user will love to share your pages across the social media platforms with their network, which obviously is as much important for your content to go viral over the web.

What do yo think are the criteria for a 'Share It' widget to be famous with your readers across the web? Ease-of-Use! Period. So while we mention ease-of-use, we simply mean minimum time and minimum clicks to share the page. Anything else that comes to mind? How about not required to leave the shared page and still be able to share it with all of your network? Exactly what we need, right!! We picked a couple that we thought fit perfectly to what we just talked about. One that you should already be familiar with, and the other that is not so famous so far but is making enough of appearances around the web. 

Google' G+ Share
The +1 effect has already spread enough since its birth that it leaves little for us to make any mention or introduction. The cool thing about the widget is that you may share the page in 2 clicks and never be required to leave the page. The only thing is that you should already be signed in to Google or click on the +1 button and then sign in.

Its just effortless and as with the Google plus web version share, you can include or exclude the circles as per your wish!! For those interested you may get the code for the +1 button here to put on your site. There is also a new variant of the share button that lets you share the page without doing a plus one on it. Go grab the code for it here!

Viadeo' share widget
While there is no doubt that the Google' share trick is a cool feature, we couldn't see Viadeo's share falling far behind. The share widget designed by their team is just the right kind a user may love to use all the time. While you may get more details on their blog (translate please), we provide you with a few screen captures for the widget.

A plus from Google here is that in case you are not logged in, you don't have to deal with a new window (popup style):

This is how it looks once you sign in and are ready to share:

Just put your comments and click the button on your bottom right. Done! The next screen shows a confirmation (not there on Google plus) with a few handy links and information that makes sense.

Nice, cool and as simple as you could imagine!!

You think we should have covered another of the Share It widgets? Let us know in the comments and we may update this post if we find your suggestion fits perfectly well in to the scenario we mentioned for the readers across the web!
