Comment on WordPress Social Network Theme by SEO Dave.

WordPress Promotion Theme Been meaning to add a StumbleUpon button as a Stallion promotions option, so it’s on the list of social media features to add.

I’ve never used Flickr as can’t think of any direct SEO value, I like having full control over images and adding them to Flickr is loosing control and sending traffic to a site I can’t monetize. I’ve added Flickr features to Stallion to make life easier for those who do use Flickr.

I haven’t checked on the status of the Facebook Like Button fb_xd_fragment Bug for a while. Did a quick Google search and based on the dates of articles still discussing this it appears Facebook still hasn’t fixed their code!

Found a potential fix, add this to your .htaccess file changing http://example.com to your domain name

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^fb_xd_fragment
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://example.com/$1? [R=301,L]

Not tested it, but it should work. Doesn’t stop the bug, cleans up the mess afterwards.

I’ve not tested the relative value of the social media button placements. Remember the side ones aren’t like buttons, they go direct to your profiles so not the same as the Facebook like button etc…
