Hi Guys It looks like some people are getting most of their traffic from so called social networks or social bookmarking. I actually don't know much about this. Some people are saying links from these sites are potentially are worth more then normal links. How do you approach this strategy? Is it mainly just blogging and placing a link within the blogs or something completely different? Anyone using this strategy to bump up their rankings in the search engine?
I guess the traffic from social networking websites is useful for those who deal in resources for the social networks.
Google is surprisingly uninformative on this. Alright a few are: Netscape, Stumbleupon, Del.Icio.us, Furl, Digg, Myspace. The first 4 are in the social bookmarking category. The last is social networking and has numerous threads in DP devoted to it. The trick to these things is to contribute to the network in a way that suits the people in that network. Search DP for each of the above and you will get a good start on how each works.
