This tutorial may sound nothing new for those who know the correct way of linking a Facebook like page to your like button but for those who are still thinking how this is done then kindly carry on reading. You may have seen almost every well established blog with a Facebook like button on the homepage but this button doesn't just shares the blog URL on user profile but it automatically likes the Facebook page of the author thereby increasing the number of his Facebook followers. This helps greatly in increasing your social media following and of course traffic to your site. Lets do it,
Linking Like page To Like Button
Facebook provides two different codes that is the iframe code and XFBML code. We generally prefer using the iframe code when pasting the FB code inside the template but if you wish to paste the code inside a HTML/JavaScript widget then you can use both versions. In this tutorial I will be using the iframe version of code to keep things simple.
- Go To Facebook developers page
- And make the following changes as shown in the screenshot also,
- Paste your Like Page URL inside "URL to like"
- Keep width size equal to 80px
- Uncheck send button and show faces
- Change layout Style to button-count
3. Hit the Get code button and copy the iframe code.
Next do this:
- Go To Blogger > Design
- Select HTML/JavaScript widget
- Paste the iframe code inside this widget
- Save it and you are all done!
Test it
Kindly do a favour and click at the like button near the header of this blog and see how the count on like page increases automatically.
Now enjoy receiving valuable likes and not just temporary FB likes. This integration of Facebook like button with like page was recently introduced and it wasn't working before. If you have any questions then feel free to ask. Peace and blessings. :)

Is it possible to have the facebook like button link to the facebook page? I am thinking the button would 'like' my page as normal, but the user would be sent to my facebook page as opposed to staying on the previous page.
ReplyDeleteI have been researching for the past four hours and was starting to think I was stupid, for not being able to add the Facebook Like button on my blog. Thanks for the very simple instructions. Now I can sleep. It's working :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks its really very help ful i love your site always provided me th best stuff
ReplyDeleteI've been wrestling with this for a while now, trying to understand one particular nuance; how does this work in relation to fan pages as opposed to user profiles or apps.
ReplyDeleteI.e. I need the likes to add to the totals for www.facebook.com/cinchedtight rather than my own page. Does this make sense?
Hi there,I already completed the step until:
ReplyDeleteNext do this:
Go To Blogger > Design
Select HTML/JavaScript widget
I am not really sure that where to paste the iframe code in the widget.Is it need to paste after or before certain code.
Please advice.Thank you.
i have the same question, where m i suppose to copy my iframe.. before or after. and also it says "Directly editing HTML may affect the way some features work and is only recommended for advanced users. Editing template HTML may unpredictably affect other Blogger features. We recommend using the Template Designer first, where you can Add CSS under the Advanced section"
ReplyDeleteso i m kinda afraid of making changes as m not an advanced user. please help...

Thank you so much. I spent like an hour trying to figure out why the code wasn't working, but no-one else had specified that it had to be iframe code rather than the other code types. Seriously, thanks :3
ReplyDeleteI think you can find html/javascript widget in the layout section. Then click add widget then just find it.
ReplyDeleteThank you!!! You are the only blog out there who explain it easily :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this!
