Adding a list of social media links

Question

I want to add a list of my social media pages. What ways are there to do this? Are there widgets designed for this?

Answer 1

There are a couple of ways to do this. You can do as Chris Carson suggested and manually add them as a text menu. You can also make a text widget and use icons with links to the various services.

If you're looking for something a little more robust, there's also a couple plugins and related services, such as AddThis, that do the icon and linking work for you and also let you track hit counts and such if you sign up for their free services.

Answer 2

I highly recommend you to use wordpress sharethis plugin. Because it has more features. Check these screenshots

Answer 3

Use a menu, which is designed for listing links: Admin->Appearance->Menus. Then add that menu to your sidebar with the menu widget: Admin->Appearance->Widgets.
