Hi there! We've just created a new social bookmarking site for web-tutorials and thus would like to start a general discussion on how best to promote it. I'm sure here are some users that have implemented successful bookmarking sites. It would be great if you're willing to share some experience. Which strategies did you guys follow to get your sites promoted in terms of visitors and bookmarks? Apart from "normal" SEO, are there specific listings that you recommend? How do you guys grow backlinks and trust for your bookmarking site? Would you e.g. recommend the implementation of "bookmarking icon" ? Where to submit your icon and will it really have an effect for new sites, that still lacks a bit of PageRank, etc? Your advice and recommendations would be much appreciated! Regards, IS
I think it would be a good idea to bookmark your new social bookmarking site on all major bookmarking sites. This will immediately show the users that there is a new site available for them. As I know many of the marketers are looking for new sites where they can leave their links on. Please don't forget to leave your site a dofollow site because intelligent users are looking exactly for this kind of sites where their backlinks will count in the eyes of the search engines and thus will enable their sites to climb higher in the positions. I hope you can do something with this info and wish you good luck !
There is some blogs and directories which listed to social bookmarking sites. You should add your new social bookmarking site there. It will help to get popularity. Besides it, normal seo activities is also necessary.
