Ok I’ve started a Tublr blog, it;s addictive let’s call it, now I’ve seen other Tumblr’s that are customized and have ‘like it’ buttons to share back to FB from Tumblr.
How do you do this?
Also, the next, and greatest, thing after that, is making sure your Tumblr is SEO from what I hear. Incorporating some code and attaching Google analytics somehow?
I want to make my Tumblr the bestest Tumblr it can be, for everyone.
Please advise all things Tumblr.

@arty Hi Art. I’m not to familiar with Tumblr (apparently I should be though ). But here are some articles I found that might help.
For Google Analytics

For adding social sharing buttons

Hi Kristi!
Thank you for your reply!
have used the link you provided and created a Google analytics account and attached it to the Tumblr blog by copying and posting the code in. All good there.
The second one not so sure about, adding a like button to the Tumblr page to post to FB. Maybe I need to change themes? Will try and find some tutorials on this.

@arty Hi! Adding the AddThis code should be as easy as adding the analytics. It’s just a piece of code. But you want to sign in and create an AddThis account so you get some analytics from that site.
If you also have a Google + Page for Business, then you want to grab one of the Google+ Badges and put that in a footer somewhere. This will help Google understand the cross link between the +1 buttons on each post and your Google+ page.
Good luck!Monique

I’ve worked out how to add some social media buttons – Twitter and FB, but not without some hair-pulling. A day later i have them. Email me if you need the WORKING code for these on your Tumblr.
