Social Bookmarks Inserter

One of the most efficient ways to promote a website or a product is by using social networks like MySpace, Del.icio.us, Digg and many others, making it easy for your visitors to promote it by adding it to their bookmarks in the social network of their preference.

To make this possible, the bookmarking option should be only one click away, - fast and easy to use. Using this resource, you obtain free publicity and lots of visits from social networks.

TDE Social Bookmarks is an extension for Dreamweaver that allows you to include in your page 35 bookmarking links to various social networks as well as bookmarks for current browsers, all this in one step from the Dreamweaver menu. Selected bookmark links will be generated in your page with their respective icons and the necessary parameters according to each social network's requirements.

The page title for the bookmark can be specified manually, although initially, for your comfort, it is identified automatically. You can also choose to identify it automatically in real time, which allows to use the same code for many different pages, something very important if you are generating pages dynamically.

In the same way, you can enter your page's URL manually although it is recommended to leave it to be detected automatically in real time.

These features allow to use this extension in any context - static html pages as well as dynamic pages.

At this time, the following social networks are supported:
