Facebook has come up with a new set of Social plugins which enable you to provide engaging social experiences to your users with just a line of HTML. The Facebook Like Button is One of them. You can see a demo of the like button on this page. The Facebook like button will allow your readers to quickly share your posts with their Facebook Friends. You can also get to know how many people liked your Blog Post .
Follow this Steps :
1. Login to your Blogger Account and go to Layout > Edit HTML and click on the check box which says “Expand Widget Templates”
2. Look for <data:post.body/> and immediately after that place the following code.

<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "item"'>
