Why Isn't The Interface To Social Sharing On Product Pages?

I can't understand this behavior. So, if I want to share my products on Facebook (for example), I can only share the page where all the products are, but if I want to only share the Throw Pillow (for example) there is not an interface to do it. I need to copy the URL and post it directly in FB.

Why is that?

@Edward Fun way to put it Edward, but it looks strange to me that nobody is asking about that. How are all people promoting in social sites?, are they only using the full product page? Thank you very much for the suggestion Edward, but suggestions are not very well received here anyway.

@Abbie Sorry, don't get it, what is the link for?, thanks!!!

That is your link

It is on the side of your profile page

Well, I've been doing that (except that I've been copying the URL directly from the address bar), but if it would be much easier if the interface were in each page. I don't understand why it isn't.

Thank you very much anyway Abbie!!!

I have wondered that also.
Sometimes I want to share one image on fb, not the page with all images, which many people will not open. But if they see that one image that has a connection to them, they will be more likely to open it and probably purchase it.
I am thinking along the line of the 'pin it' icon which shows when you edit one item, why not icons for fb, twt, g+, etc?

 

I agree that having social media icons on ALL product pages will make it much easier to share/post any product. Good suggestion!

I use a simple free add-on/extension to my browser...."Add this" and I can easily share any of the specific products to a whole bunch of Social Networks. I just tested it on a Pillow to FB and it worked great.

The problem is that it does not is only about us doing marketing for our products. Visitors should be able to share any product they like, and having them to copy the URL or having a plug in in their browser will never happen. Things should be easy.

I asked the same Q 2 weeks ago. Even tried to bribe them with cheesecake if they'd add the code.

Hasn't worked yet.

This is something that could boost sales at least a bit. People is looking for things to post in their wall. If they like something they will post it. We have a closed door here. The door will open but it will take a long time. Suggestions are not very well received around here.
