Want to know an easy way to share your blog and social media pages with all of your email contacts? I will show you how to insert social media icons to your email signature!

Here are step-by-step instructions on how to do this with Gmail:

  1. Log into your Gmail account
  2. On the top right, click on the “gear” icon and click on settings
  3. Under “general”, scroll down until you see “signature”
  4. Select the “insert image”  (looks like a little mountain)
  5. Search for free social media icons. Some of my favorite sites are Carrie Loves, A Typical English Home, and The Wonder Forest.
  6. Upload all of your downloaded icons to Photobucket
  7. Click on the icon image, find direct link on the right hand side, copy and paste into “Paste an image URL here” in the insert image section on Gmail
  8. Highlight the icon you just placed and click the link icon (looks like a chain)
  9. Click “change” and enter your new URL (for example: www.twitter.com/pinkonthecheek)
  10. Test the link
  11. Enter as many social media icons as you would like
  12. You are all done!
