Add a Tweet and Buffer button to key sentences right inside each blog post. Just add [tweetable] tags around the text. eg. "Here's my blog post. [tweetable]This profound sentence is tweetable. Tweet it![/tweetable] Thank you."

How do I make a sentence tweetable?
Let's say you have this as your post:
Hello world! This is an exciting blog! I will share stuff with you.
You can make a sentence tweetable by adding the [tweetable] shortcode around any sentence you want, like this:
Hello world! [tweetable]This is an exciting blog![/tweetable] I will share stuff with you.
Now, the sentence "This is an exciting blog!" will be a special link. If the reader clicks it, they'll load a window confirming the tweet (and allowing them to edit it.) If they hover over the link, a Tweet and Buffer button will pop up over it.
Can I add #hashtags to my tweets?
Yes, like this:
[tweetable hashtags="#foo #bar"]This text is tweetable![/tweetable]
Now the tweet will be "This text is tweetable! #foo #bar"
Can I edit the style of the tweetable text?
Yes, you need to create a css override for the style like this:
.tweetable a {
//Your new style for tweetable links
}
