Smartbuttons

Hyves Smartbuttons are an easy way to let people share information from your website with their social network. With a single click, users can share an article they are reading with their friends on Hyves. Or they can easily add a gadget they find on your website with the press of a button. Using this viral distribution, you can expect to generate extra traffic from people who will find your article or gadget on the profile of their friends on Hyves and will get back to your website to have a look.

Shortly, Hyves buttons allow you to have a Hyves integration with very little effort.

At the moment we support the following functionality:

• Tip this on Hyves
• Become a friend of this Hyver
• Place this as a Blog
• Become a member of a Hangout/Group/School/College/Company/Club/(Hubs)/Interest/Brand
• Install this gadget on your Hyves profile
• Upload this photo to your Hyves profile
• Declare that you will attend this event
• Pay a Hyver
