If you have yet to burn your Blogger feed at Feedburner please refer to my articles Blogger RSS Feeds and Feedburner and Burn Blogger RSS Feeds at Feedburner for instructions on how to burn your feed and benefits of burning your blog's feed at Feedburner.
1. Login to Feedburner with your Google Account. From the My Feeds page click on the link to your blog
2. By default you will be taken to the Analyze page so you need to select the Optimize tab from the menu
3. Select FeedFlare from the Side Menu
4. To create a simple FeedFlare check the boxes of the options you would like. At a mininum I suggest you select email and comments count (for blogger) in addition to Stumble Upon, Digg This, del.icio.us and Facebook.
5. Once you have selected the desired options you can reorder them in the Preview/Reordering box below using drag and drop to shuffle the links around. I think it is a good idea to have comments either at the beginning or the end of the list as readers are more likely to notice it in this position
6. Click on Activate. Do not close this window as we will be returning here.
7. In a new window login to Blogger if you are not already logged in and navigate to Layout > Edit HTML
8. I strongly suggest you back up your template as a precaution by downloading it to your computer
9. Use CTRL + F to bring up the toolbar and enter the following code into the search box
10. Return to the FeedFlare page at Feedburner and select Blogger from the drop down menu at the bottom of the page to get the HTML Feedburner code. A dialog box will appear with some instructions. Copy the code found in item #1. Editing Blogger Layouts. To copy right click your mouse and choose select all to highlight the code and then right click again and choose copy
11. Paste the Feedburner code into your template directly below the line of code in your template you just located <div id='post-footer'>
12. Click on the Save Button
13. Return to Feedburner. Immediately below your blog's title and just above the Analyze tab you will see two icons. Click on the RSS icon (left button) which will bring up your blog feed.
14. Scroll to the bottom of the first post and you will see your new FeedFlare in action.
