What are the Differences Between a Link, Like, and Share?
A social like, link, and share have different uses for your website page.
Social Link
When a visitor clicks a social link icon on your website, for example, Facebook or LinkedIn, this link will take your visitor to your social profile page for their review.
The Social link icons that you can add to your website page include: Facebook, Google, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace, and YouTube.
Social Like
When a visitor clicks the Facebook like on your website page, then a post is submitted back to the visitor's Facebook page that says they like your website, which includes a link to your website.
All of your visitor's friends will see your website link and can connect to your site.
Social Share
When a visitor clicks a social share icon on your website page, for example, Facebook, Google, or LinkedIn, this link will open the visitor's social media account and allow them to share your website content or the link to your website page on their social media profile pages.
The friends and connections in your visitor's network can also visit your website. The social share icons that you can add to your website page include Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Linked.
