Yahoo! Buzz button to your blogger


As I said in the previous post, Yahoo Buzz can be

your excellent traffic-maker if your story is interesting and get to Yahoo! homepage. The first step to get it is to put a Yahoo! Buzz button to your blog so that people can vote your entry up. Adding a Yahoo! Buzz button is not too complicated if you follow my steps below .
Step 1. Choose your favorite button from Yahoo!
Buzz that fitted well with your site design (large button with vote count - Square Button - is highly recommended), then click “Get Code”.
Step 2. If you have selected the Square Button the code will be like this


<script type="text/javascript" src="http://d.yimg.com/ds/badge2.js" badgetype="square">ARTICLEURL</script>



Step 3. Replace the ARTICLEURL with <data:post.url/>. After replaced, your code will look like this


<script type="text/javascript" src="http://d.yimg.com/ds/badge2.js" badgetype="square"><data:post.url/></script>


Step 4. Now go to your Blogger account



Step 5. Go to Layout -> Edit HTML

Step 6.
The best place to display Yahoo! Buzz button is under the Post Title and on the right. Because of the variation of blogger templates on the web, I recommend you put Yahoo! Buzz code above the tag <data:post.body/>. We will add style to the button to make it float to the right. Yeah, more beautiful :)



Your template code will look something like this






Of course, if you want it float to the left, it is fine. Change the code float:right; to float:left;



Step 7. Save your template, see your work and start buzzing up your posts. Hey, do not try to spam their page or you will be banned ;)
