Create a Social Share Buttons integration for SiteJet on Common Ninja

First, create a SiteJet Social Share Buttons integration on Common Ninja. On the integrations catalog, find the Social Share Buttons and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Social Share Buttons integration

03

Copy the Social Share Buttons Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Social Share Buttons integration to your SiteJet website, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the integration embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your SiteJet website.

04

Paste the code to your SiteJet website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your SiteJet website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the SiteJet’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Social Share Buttons Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Social Share Buttons integration on your SiteJet website.

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your SiteJet website’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Social Share Buttons integration to your SiteJet website. You can do this by putting it straight into your SiteJet website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Social Share Buttons widget when you want to make it effortless for visitors to distribute your content across major networks. Easy to find share buttons near articles, products, and resources reduce the friction of copying links and switching apps. This can lead to more organic distribution, especially when readers feel your content will help their own audience. The widget keeps tracking and styling consistent across your site and can be configured for the platforms that matter most to you. Social sharing is still a powerful discovery channel, and clear buttons signal that you welcome and expect people to spread the word.
