Add ‘Send to Kindle’ Button On Your Blog

Earlier we encountered Facebook “Send” button, Twitter’s New Follow Button and the recent Google’s +1 button, now something for Kindle fans. If you are web publisher or Kindle fan, you can consider this button. Readability’s “Send to Kindle” button allows your readers to send any of your articles to their Amazon Kindle for free.

Your readers will be able to transfer/send any of your articles to their Kindle device in just one single click.

‘Send to Kindle’ Button For Your Blog

This is not a plugin, you just need to paste this simple JS code on your blog posts. Go to Readability’s Tools & Enhancement section. Now grab the code for “Send to Kindle”. You can check the ‘Send’ button below.

Remember you can send web pages to your Kindle only using these two different email addresses, @kindle.com and @free.kindle.com.

  1. Hi there,
    I will definitelly give a try to the send to kindle button on a few of my blogs. It looks as it has a real value comparing to the Google’s +1 button.

  2. This looks nice. I will try it with my blog today. Does it also come with an analytics on how many were shared on Kindle?

  4. As a reader, it will only work for Kindle 3 with wifi. For K2 and older without wifi, the free conversion will email it back to them in Kindle format to transfer manually via USB. If not using free, and letting is send via 3G, the charges aren't massive but are charged per megabyte and vary depending on whether you are within and outside USA.

    ALSO, I would only do it with sites I trust. It requires adding their email to your approved email list so that they can send documents to your Kindle. *Potentially* this leave your Kindle open to spam – articles, ads, etc etc sent wirelessly to your Kindle.
