How to Add a Retweet Button to your TypePad Blog

As Twitter is getting more and more traffic worldwide, a retweet (RT) button for your blog becomes an essential marketing tool. It will help your readers easily tweet your posts and generate valuable traffic to your blog. The most popular button is the TweetMeme retweet button. Since we use TypePad for managing our LookupPage blog, and we found no content about how to add a retweet bottom to TypePad, we decided to share that information with you.

How does it work?

Retweeting is simply to repeat a user’s tweet. For example, you retweet when you encounter a tweet which you want to share with people that follow you.

The retweet button automatically generates the correct syntax of the retweet together with a TinyURL. Here is an example of a retweet of our “Google CV” blog post: “RT @LookupPage The Google CV http://bit.ly/2elis "

How to install the button?

1. Sign in to your TypePad account
2. Go to your blog design tab (it must be an advanced template design).
3. Choose to edit your main index template.
4. Copy the below code at the beginning of the entry header )
5. Save your changes and you’re done.The TweetMeme retweet button code:

 

The TweetMeme retweet button code:

<div style="float: right; margin-right: 0px;"> 

<script type="text/javascript"> 

tweetmeme_style = "compact";

tweetmeme_url = '<$MTEntryPermalink$>';

tweetmeme_source = 'your_twitter_user_name';

</script> 

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://tweetmeme.com/i/scripts/button.js"> </script> 

</div>
