Yo,
Anyone recommend a relatively bug-free social media counter plugin / script for a website? I've been trying a few jquery ones available on the internet and have been met with varying degrees of success.
I'd simply like a few social media buttons with their respective counters to hide in a footer.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

The site is not a blog btw. Just a small microsite for promotional purposes. So please, no WP or blogging plug-ins.

...so you want something you fully control? Not like http://sharethis.com/ or http://www.addthis.com/ ?

Something I can control is preferable, but i'm not opposed to using a service like those above so long as they don't affect analytics / social sharing in a negative way.
I came across Sharrre.com which is jquery, but it's kind of buggy and poorly documented.

This one is $4 but I've never tried it:

The best and easiest solution i've found:
1) Visit developer section of social site you want a button from
2) Grab the code / generate your button from an official developers site
3) works like a charm!For facebook, twitter and g+ respectively:
