GROWTH HACKS:

Add WhatsApp to your Social Share Buttons!

BuzzFeed tested WhatsApp’s share button and found that 38% more people share via WhatsApp than via Twitter!

Aviary said that WhatsApp shares were almost the same level as Facebook and Instagram.

Maybe that`s because WhatsApp has 900M users (vs Twitter`s 300M), plus the open rate is over 90%. Pretty impressive, yeah? 🙂

How to embed the share button:
1. WordPress plugin.
2. AddToAny widget.
