Social Plugins
Social media plugins are a great way to grow your social media channels and promote further sharing of your content. NoCode has selected some of the best, easiest to install and free tools to do just that.
Adding a set of social share buttons to your website is a great first step towards encouraging visitors to your site to share your content. The easier you can make it for visitors to share your content or pages on their own social networks, the more exposure and traffic you'll get. In addition, the social plugins below allow you to track metrics and the amount of shares, providing valuable analytics for your site.

Start A FIRE is a fantastic free tool to expand your content's reach with every link you share on social media. Start A FIRE adds a branded badge (your logo) with content recommendations within any link you share. Basically when you share other peoples/ companies content a user clicks that content and goes to the external link your logo will appear in a badge with two recommendations to your content. Fully integrated for an automatic experience with your social media management platform. I personally integrated it with Hootsuite and it couldn't be easier.
