# Why Use Share Buttons?

Smart Share buttons provide an in-line share experience. Smart share buttons allow you to choose which image, title, subtitle, and description is shared. You can even embed a video in the social news feeds instead of an image.

Here are other benefits:

- Users are added to your Social CRM Database so you can identify and connect with your most influential advocates.
- Multi-network shares are simplified by allowing your visitors to enter a single message and share it to Facebook, Twitter & LinkedIn.
- Links are tracked and integrated with your analytics software as well as our reporting dashboard.
- Preview & edit how the shares will look in Facebook, LinkedIn & Twitter.
- Add custom default comments to encourage positive user comments.
- Add a coupon link or white paper link to the user comments automatically to boost referred visits.
