I think you all may be familiar with the most used social network Facebook and the best micro-blogging site Twitter, some of you may be also using them from a very long time, but have anyone ever thought how this Facebook and Twitter can help you in increasing your blog traffic and in making few bucks? You may have also seen a Re-tweet button and a Share on Facebook button on some Pro-bloggers’s blog. So why do they installed those buttons?

Your answer is here -

If someone lands to your blog via search engine and found an interesting post, if you have installed a social bookmarking plug-in or something I’m sure that he will like to share your post with others.

What happens if a post gets shared on Facebook and Twitter?

Today while reading Labnol I came through a report which shows  that if a post is shared on Twitter, users are more likely to click on shared links than Facebook users and Facebook has a large user base so if a link is shared on Facebook  users will explore it more than Twitter users.

So where to share links? Facebook or Twitter?

Answer is here – Share on both. Sharing links on both sites will be good for our blogs as Twitter users are more likely to click on shared links and Facebook user spend more time on exploring our site (which is good as it will help in increasing our page views and time on site), Moreover it will also help us in making few more bucks from advertising. :)

TIP: If you using WordPress as your blogging platform, then install TweetMeme button and Share on Facebook plug-in and don’t forget to use a hash tag # while sharing something on Twitter.
