How good social bookmarking is for increasing ranking? I've observed that if an interesting story is bookmarked and as long as it remains on the top of bookmarking website it has some value but once it is buried I see no value in it?
I just wanna say Social Bookmarking just provide you traffic instantly if you have gud content on your site but this traffic comes for a very little time it's not long lasting. Many times this traffic is not relevant to your site niche. If you ask that Social Bookmarking increases sites ranking then it's completely a MYTH.................
Yes, it is mostly for traffic, but it can also be a back link if you bookmark and place it in the proper category. I believe you can do bookmarking with niche SB sites to make the link more relative.
Well if you are clever you know what you can do with Social Bookmarking An interesting story always keeps you on the top. There are plenty of other websites scrapping the top news which might give you a clue about the potential of SB. A well planned strategy and interesting story is guaranteed to boost your PR though in short term. Even buried stories remain on the website for quite some time and serve as good backlink.
yes, social bookmarking is important. besides the fact that it sends tons of traffic, you also get killer links from it.
I see for my site that social bookmarking just gives a bunch of visitors just after the bookmarking and then nothing. Maybe using viral techniques could give better results.
From social bookmarking you can get traffic and back links which cause better ranking on search engine.
It's what you do with the bookmarks that makes difference. If you created the bookmark and left it alone thats gonna do you no good. If you created it and promote it the right ways then you can see it in your webmaster account very quickly! I think one of the links i build was discovered within 48 hours once. It usually takes a bit for the links to show though.
Social book marking definitely boost your site ranking, however in order to keep the rating for long run it is important to work on other factors of On page and Off page Seo
