Over the last few years there has been a bit of a mini war between the top bookmarking widget services.Sites like Share This, Add This, Add To Any And more have been fighting for the top spot among users (Did you know the Add This Bookmark page is one of the few online with a Google Page Rank of 10/10).In my opinion over the last year Share This has been coming out on top.In The next few posts i will be showing you why with tutorials on their new Oath Bookmark buttons, Fixed Share widget with integrated AdSense and in this post the very cool toolbar also with optional integrated AdSense.

The Share This Tool Bar

The Share this tool bar is the best i have seen with lots of options but yet clean and not too bulky on your blog.Along with various Bookmarking options for all the top Social sites you can add links to your Social Profiles and have pop up links with the latest from those profiles.

A very useful trending section is also built in with your most popular posts (The posts most people have shared) scrolling across the toolbar.

An ads section can also be added to your toolbar, Share This plan to find advertisers interested in buying these spots and you get the revenue.Until they do find advertisers (Most blogs struggle with direct advertising) you can display a 300×250 AdSense unit in this spot.
