I can’t believe this plugin can still be on wordpress.org

On one of my website, I suddenly had ads appreaing after 25-30 sec on a page. Shareaholic activate ads, specially on mobiles.

This is a shame !!!

It will steal your visitors information and later on they will be spam with emails

GTMetrix test show a significant slow down of my pagespeed due to lots of redirects, urging me to remove those. Even with the monetisation part switched off.

I received 2 x email from the plugin on installing,

Although it looks great on the website (love the design at the front end!) I removed it, my page speed was up instandly from C79% to A 90%…..

Overall: I do not like it, a little too much of everything.
