Addthis Vs. Sharethis

 Written by paul, on Jan 30, 2008 - 00:15


As a blogger, i need to boost my website traffic and increase my readership. I did so many things as of to date just to increase my blog traffic. As you all know, i did reveal the 5 easy step on how to drive traffic to your blog. Other than that i also mentioned about how viral links grow my blog readership .

If you noticed, i installed Addthis Social bookmarking since the first day i started blogging. I know addthis.com is one of the best social bookmarking available for the bloggers to promote their blog. However i noticed some of the Social bookmarking on addthis.com are not working very well and some produced error. Thus resulting me, changing my Addthis.com to sharethis.com.

I believe this is a very subjective matters, some people will still love Addthis.com. But in my case i no longer need addthis.com huge socialbookmarking list. I’ved done some testing and analysis of how many of my readers really use all of the list provided by addthis.com, the result, they only used Stumbleupon.com and digg.com. I think it is at best for me to remove and get sharethis.com social bookmarking. The main reason why i am using sharethis.com is:

1) Simple and more user friendly.

2) I love the ability to tell your myspace.com contact

3) Ability to tell all you facebook.com contact directly

4) Listed only the best Social Bookmarking website

My advice, if you havent tried sharthis.com this is the time! Time to change, sharethis.com  always the smarter choice :) .

I see no difference between the two. Hehe.

I too had seen AddThis, but ShareThis - now that it’s finally available to all, not just WordPress - is way better IMO. I’d like to see some kind of deeper comparison, or hear someone actually tell me the reasons why they think AddThis is better… but for now I agree in thinking ShareThis is the better choice between the two.

Thanks for this post, yours came up top when I googled addthis vs sharethis. :)

p.s. I’m using ShareThis on my blog - http://willotoons.com - and on my shop: http://shop.willotoons.com/products/geekyfantastic-guys

Thanks for this article - helps clarify the differences between addthis and sharethis. I was hoping to talk to you more about this post but couldn’t find your contact information. I’m developing a similar widget with some additional bells & whistles and thought you could provide some feedback. Send me an email when you get the chance.

Thanks!

[…] wide adoption. Of these, I’m going to use Sharethis, as it’s the easiest to use. Also, Ben over at Limdang.com likes sharethis with the fewer options, as he found that his readers were only posting to stumbleupon and digg anyways - and some of the […]
