How to add Facebook Like Button to blogger?

Facebook Like button helps to spread a news or information so quickly in web. When you click the like button on an interesting topic then it gets posted on your Facebook profile and if in your Facebook profile you share it, then it gets posted on the newsfeed so that all your friends can read the topic that you “like”d. If your friends also “like” it then it gets posted on their profile also. Ultimately getting more “like”s.

This Like botton is very much useful for bloggers because anyone who wants to share your blog post can simply click the Like button and the post you wrote will get more “like”s from Facebook. This helps in getting more visitors to your blog. SEO can benefit much from Facebook Like button.

How can I add the Facebook Like button to every post in Blogger?

This is very simple. Go to this page you will find all the information you need.

Or you can use the code below.


Go to your blog Design. Click on Edit HTML and select Expand Widget Templates. On the template find <data:post.body/> and immediately after it add the code shown above.

This is an Iframe implementation. There is one more type XFBML.

Things you can customize are shown highlighted red.

For layout you can use standard, box and button. Here I have used box.

Standard Facebook Like Button


Box Count Facebook Like Button


Button Count Facebook Like Button


If you are using standard then you can change show_faces=false to show_faces=true. This displays profile picture. This works only with standard layout.

You can change the width and height to fit your blog. There are two types of colour scheme light and dark. Fonts you can use are arial, verdana.

Hope you will Like the post.

Since, social communities like Facebook have become excellent platforms for internet marketers worldwide, everyone wants to join the bandwagon and go with the flow. Some individuals do not have the time to promote their pages online and entrust social media marketing to agencies like cheap SEO services. This is because such agencies are effective, result oriented and quite affordable to individuals and companies alike.
