If you use vBSEO and want to add Twitter to your Social Bookmarking area, then this is for you.
Now you should see your twitter icon listed with your other Social Bookmarking icons.
You can change "Check This Out" to what ever you want. But make sure you use +'s for the spaces. Using %20's will not work. Make sure to never use https://www.twitter.com/ - This will not work. You will need to always use https://twitter.com - For some reason twitter doesn't want you to use the www address. Now this will work fine if you're all ready logged in. But for people that are not logged in, it will not work well at all.
