How to let people email my posts to their friends?


Email This Post enables your blog readers to share your posts with others. Let's say a visitor to your blog just loves your post about The Secret Valor of Chickens. Now that visitor can let her friends know about your discovery by emailing out a link to your post. It's a great way to let your readers share what they've seen on your blog. To enable this feature, set Show Email Post links? to Yes in the Settings | Basic tab in Blogger:
Quick Edit settingHere's what they look like:
Quick Edit linkEnjoy!
Notes:
  • To prevent spamming and encourage blog visits, a link is sent via email rather than the post body
  • If you have a classic template, you must have the <$BlogMetaData$> tag in your Template's <head> section, and the <$BlogItemControl$> tag wherever you want the Mail links to appear. 
  • If you're publishing via FTP, you'll need to republish your blog's index page in order for the links to appear.
  • CSS files are aggressively cached by browsers for performance reasons. This means you may have to reload or even super-reload (using the shift key) to make links appear after you first enable them.f
