Sociable Icons

From your Dashboard, go to “System Options” » “Marketing Settings” » “Sociable settings”
Don’t let these sociable icons be confused with the Social Bookmark Robot or the RSS Subscription Icons. The sociable icons are actually used by your visitors to “bookmark” a particular article on their favorite Social Bookmarking site.
Selecting your Sociable settings
First you’ll need to decide which icons you’d like to provide to your visitors. There are so many options available it is difficult to say which ones are best. Some are very niche specific, whereas some are more general. The top 5 that we recommend are “del.icio.us”, “digg”, “furl”, “netscape”, “MyYahooWeb”. I tend to pick the Sociable Icons that I have signed up for in my Social Bookmarking Robot also.
To select or unselect an icon, simply click on it. You can change they order they appear in by clicking-and-dragging to move the icons around.
Sociable icon heading
Next you can change the “heading” for your sociable icons. The default is “Share and Enjoy:” but you can change that to whatever you wish.
Positioning of the Sociable icons
Lastly, you’ll determine where these sociable icons show up. You can have them show up in any of the areas listed. Simply “check” or “uncheck” your selections.
