This WordPress plugin was originally developed so that I could track how many social shares my content was getting. I didn\u2019t just want to know the stats for the content I published on my own website, but also the numerous articles that I\u2019d written in other online publications. The result was my Social Footprint plugin.<\/p>\n\n
After using the plugin for over a year I decided that it was too useful to keep to myself. That said, I didn\u2019t want to charge people to use it so I\u2019ve offered this out for free, forever.<\/p>\n\n
Uploading your content into the plugin couldn\u2019t be easier. Simply click on the \u2018Import WordPress Posts\u2019 button and the plugin will pull through all the posts on your site and then gather social share stats for them. You can then arrange the columns in ascending\/descending order to quickly see your top and worst performing content.<\/p>\n\n
When it comes to sourcing the right stats for you, I\u2019ve set the plugin up so that you can choose which social networks you will get stats for. Stats for Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, Pinterest, StumbleUpon and Reddit are all currently supported by the plugin.<\/p>\n\n
As I mentioned, it\u2019s not just your WordPress content that you can analyse. There\u2019s a built-in feature that allows you to add in URLs from any website and gather instant stats on their social media performance. There\u2019s even a bulk upload option where you can import a list of URLs from a Windows .csv file.<\/p>\n\n\n
Extract the zip file and just drop the contents in the wp-content\/plugins\/ directory of your WordPress installation and then activate the Plugin from Plugins page.<\/p>\n\n\n
No. Never.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Not right now but it\u2019s a feature I\u2019m looking at adding.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Like the majority of tools that used to offer Twitter share count data, it\u2019s not available anymore. This is because Twitter shut down their count API on November 20th 2015 (source: https:\/\/blog.twitter.com\/2015\/hard-decisions-for-a-sustainable-platform).<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>","raw_excerpt":"Analyse the virality of your content across a range of social networks.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/39495","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39495"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/matthewbarby"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39495"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=39495"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=39495"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=39495"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=39495"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/de.wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=39495"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
