Quick Social Bookmarking Question

Discussion in 'General Marketing' started by Klutze, Aug 31, 2009.

    When adding pages to social bookmarking sites for link building purposes, should the title of the bookmark consist of your targeted keywords or would you just the title of the page?

    For example, if your targeted keyword is 'red apples' would you use this keyword as the bookmark title, or would you use the title '7 tips for keeping fresh apples'?

    Or is using your keywords as tags sufficient?

    Thanks for the help!

    sometimes using keywords in titles is very much needed. consider like digg, it doesnt have tags. so links get indexed with the help of content in title.

    Yes, use the keyword in the title. The more places you use the keyword, the better. Just don't overdo it if you want people to read your posts. Google's crawler just loves repeating words. I've seen sites that rank best for certain keywords have the keyword in every title they post and every paragraph is stuffed with the keyword. Their site looks like complete junk to me and you, but Google's crawler loves it and ranks it #1. It is just not as smart as humans.

    Well, keyword in the title and in tags box both helps a lot. I always aim to give keywords in the titles as it makes our keyword open searching phrases and thus increases the visibility of our post.

    Yes, keyword in title, it helps google to crawl you site with the attach keyword, when writing the title make sure to write a title title, not the the keyword alone. Like 7 tips for keeping fresh red apples'?

    The better thing is you should provide the targeted keyword in the title.
