What it does
Many site owners have audiences spread across several social networks, and those numbers are hard to show on a website without manual edits. This plugin pulls follower counts from your connected channels and syncs them automatically. It covers well-known networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Pinterest and Spotify, along with niche platforms like 500px and Behance. It handles different kinds of metrics too, including page likes, profile followers, channel subscribers and group members.
Presentation is handled through 16 built-in templates, with options designed for both light and dark backgrounds so the counters can sit comfortably in your existing design. The layouts are responsive and retina-ready, which keeps them sharp on phones, tablets and large screens. Beyond social networks, you can show counts of WordPress users, posts and comments, plus a Love Counter that works with Easy Social Share Buttons. CSS and JS files are available if you want to adjust styling for your brand.
