Turn your site visitors into evangelists.

Yahoo! now offers several free interactive tools for publishers, bloggers, and podcasters -- for anyone who creates content for the web. It's a breeze to add simple action buttons to a web page to make it easy for users to share, save, or blog about your web site.

There are several configuration options to enhance and optimize the way the buttons behave on your web site. See the Guide to Yahoo! Social Media Tools page for instructions on adding the buttons to your site. Then return to this page to identify which options will help the buttons fit in better with your site look and feel.

Help us make them better

We're looking for ways to grow and improve our collection of social media tools. Please let us know how these buttons are working for you and your users, so we can figure out what functionality to add. Again, you're invited to join the Yahoo! Social Media Tools group and share your ideas and experiences with other bloggers and publishers.

Also, if you write or post about Yahoo!'s social media tools or if you're using del.icio.us, we'd be thrilled if you'd add the tag "social media" to blog posts or screenshots or whatever. That way, we can pay attention to the conversation about these buttons wherever it's taking place across the Web. (Thanks!)
