Websites and social media often go hand in hand. Social networks are used to drive traffic to websites but the opposite is true as well, especially if you want to increase engagement on your social networks. That’s why most websites include links to their social networks on various pages. You can go with the classic way and add icons, or you can try a more unique approach.

We’ve created a stunning and creative social follow design that you can download and can use on any website you build using Divi. On top of that, we’ve also provided you with 5 different color palettes that look great for this design.

Let’s get to it!
