Benefits of Buttons

The nicest thing about using Facebook and Twitter buttons is they are interactive and easy for the users. It is a very small request to ask a visitor to Like or Tweet about you when all they need to do is click a button on your webpage. If a visitor likes what they see, engaging with it, brings some sense of personal satisfaction.

A big benefit is that this action is social, letting the website visitors spread word about your offer to all of their friends and followers. Actions produce results that are instantly visible to the clicker. As the button is pressed, the counter updates, showing number of times the page has been Liked or Tweeted. It’s a small bit of feedback that encourages users who are social to take action on your page.

Sharing can be viral: When visitors see others have tweeted or liked your content, it encourages others to share it too!
