Like Dan, I like to click any links provided in posts, even though I sometimes have to search for them – because they are the same colour as the rest of the text! How about YOU?
If you enjoyed this article, why not share it with all your friends, online connections and groups - GO ON - you KNOW you WANT to!

There’s not enough hours in a day to click on every link. I turn my computer on to write so I confine myself to those that gain my interest and only check on three regularly – yours being one of them Chris, and of course my little mutt follows Danny!
Honestly, I only click on things that interest me. If a reblog doesn’t grab me from the short preview, I’ll share it, but I won’t necessary click. There aren’t enough hours in the day to read every post from everyone I know. Sad but true. However, this post makes me want to click, if that helps.
I usually click to the ends of the earth and end up distracted and lost. But maybe that’s just me. I do wish more sites were easier to reblog. I often can’t find a way to do that. But maybe that’s just me. I know Chris the Reading Ape has guided me along a few times! I always appreciate it when folks lend a hand!
To click or not to click, that is the question… Sometimes I feel like a click, sometimes I don’t. First they must have my interest. If they have failed to grab my attention, probably not.
Far too many people take the easy way out Chris. Yes they look. All anyone has to do is to check their blogs stats to find out how many. But, very few ‘Like’ a post. Even less bother to comment, unlike you an I. 😉
I like to be able to press “Like”. If a link takes me somewhere interesting that doesn’t have a “Like” button, then… what? Do I have to leave a comment? Share on social media? Well, maybe I will, but only if it’s a really interesting article.
If you genuinely like any article on WordPress, it’s easy to share it elsewhere Frank, but as you say, some sites (especially outside WP) seem to make it difficult by not having share buttons.
