There is a very easy way to add a “Tweet This” link to your WordPress blog posts. It involves no plugins. For those of you who don’t know, a “Tweet This” link gives your readers the option of easily posting a link to your post to their Twitter account stream. That’s a good thing because all of their Twitter followers will then be introduce to you and your writing. Basically, a “Twit This” link equals more traffic and readers for you and your blog. You can see mine below this post.

To post a “Tweet This” link on your own blog, simply copy and paste the following code inside the WordPress loop found in the single.php file of your current theme. Or, if you’d like to have it where mine is, you can post it in the MainTemplate.php.

<a target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” href=”http://twitter.com/home?status=Currently reading <?php the_permalink(); ?>” title=”Click to send this page to Twitter!” target=”_blank”><b>Tweet This!</b></a></span>

That’s all there is to it, really. Simply copy and paste the above in your loop.

Good Luck!
