Sharing Made Easy: How to Share Content from Experts Exchange
BID:: 5482
Millions connect with friends, family and peers every day on social media sites, sharing information, ideas, jokes or insights with the click of a button. If you’re one of them, Experts Exchange has now made it easier for you to share technology Q’s and A’s with your social circle.
Sharing a solution with a friend who doesn’t have Experts Exchange is great, but not when they’re sent to a “sign up now” page instead of an answer. Now, anytime you share an accepted solution with your social circle using our share buttons, your followers can click through to a see the unlocked answer even if they’re not yet a member.
We’ve added what we call our “share strip” to all of our content pages, including articles, blogs and questions. The strip includes links to the most popular social media sites (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google+), plus a “more” button to access additional social networks. Click on your preferred social channel, sign in and your friends will have logged-in access to your shared page.
