Floating Social Sharing Bar For Blogger

Social sharing is a good way to drive traffic to a blog or website therefore social buttons are used in blogs and websites to get shares, tweets, pins and so on to spread blog or webpages. Blogger has built-in share buttons below each post, but now a days people use to add floating buttons in blogs because its trending and is helpful to share posts easily and quickly. Floating buttons are in both vertical and horizontal styles but the most popular one is vertical style, so people usually use vertical floating share buttons in blogs but horizontal floating buttons are also used to help visitors share posts without scrolling to the end of the post as share buttons float with scrolling page as the visitor scrolls.
