    Indexing new sites is one advantage, but what about the one way links they generate to your site. This can be a huge advantage if you take the time to set it up properly.

    Make sure if your doing this, that you are posting from a relevant section from a social bookmarking site i.e. choose the correct category, etc to ensure that the search engines see the link as relevant.

    Cheers

    Advantages of social media are really quick indexing, ability to show your best articles to the great amount of people and to get great exposure that can bring you traffic. And if you are really good some of visitors can become your permanent visitors and customers.

    generally having a bunch of bookmarks or just submissons to various SB sites will indeed help get indexed and increase your link popularity, but if you manage to get featured on front page you'll get a bunch strong links and various links from other sources, due to high exposure on social media.
    You can get thousands of strong links for being on front page of digg.com

    The articles in my directory that have been bookmarked receive substantially more page views than nonbookmarked articles. The best thing is to match the most suitable bookmarking community to your site. Ex. Technorati is best if you have an internet/tech related site. But Digg is good for sending you traffic.

    social bookmark sites will help your seo, if there is not nofollow on their links. for example delicous is using nofollow on their links. links from delicous will not help your seo but it will send traffic to your site

    Social bookmarking could bring you loyal visitors down the road, and it can increase branding awareness for your site and your service/product/message. Remember, first impressions only happen once ;)

    It's good for getting back links, but traffic will depend on the topic

    Yes, you want to use your tags as the keywords. Don't add hundreds of tags, but just relevant ones.
