    I believe that along with other off-page techniques (Blogging, Article submissions, Newsletter etc. etc. ), Social Bookmarking is also one of the best ways to promote your websites or blogs. To know more about Social Bookmarking and its various benefits, visit

    I can tell you without reservation that social bookmarking will get you indexed faster than ANY other free method. Just DON'T SPAM the sites.

    What qualifies as spam, though? Where do you draw the line between self-promotion and spam?

    You mentioned
    Your blog would have been better if you had described how to implement the social bookmark links.

    You mentioned some benefits but didn't explain the methods in case your readers are not Web 2.0 savvy. Webmasters who already know how to add the social bookmark links would also already be aware of their benefits.

    Just use the sites like you might use them if you didn't have a website, and then throw in some links to your own stuff every couple of days or so. Don't register with multiple accounts and just submit the same links to each one, most of them will catch that and ban those accounts.

    "Don't register with multiple accounts and just submit the same links to each one."

    Oh, I didn't think of that. Yes, that would most definitely be spam.

    yes, its a great tool. if mastered well, it can drive a lot of traffic to the site. and some used it successfully for link building purposes as well. however, major SB sites are now using "nofollow" and others might follow soon. so its not gonna be as much fun as it used to be.

    SB, really gets you good amount of traffic. And especially if your site is some what related to categories like entertainment, social networking, video sharing, or something on these lines SB is really gonna get you what you need... However, I am afraid that the links from SB are no follow in most cases... Any opinions on that??????

    Scott,

    I think the jury is still out on this one. I mean, in all reality SPAM is an acronym that ONLY applies to email but many in the online community have adapted it and applied it to social bookmarking, article marketing, SEO, etc.

    IMHO, I don't consider a three or four bookmarks a week to be SPAM, the problem we have is that the REAL spammers are using the automation tools and hitting the social bookmarking sites hundreds of times a day with multiple accounts hidden by proxy servers and IPs.

    I am watching a lot Discussion on NOFOLLOW in social bookmarkin websites. So I thought lets puts some point in place.

    Few days ago I was readin www.searchengineland.com (my regular place for SEO) It was mentioned there that

    1. MSN do not follow NOFOLLOW tag and SB work in Live.com. It is tested in my websites and reward are great.
    2. Yahoo also Do not follow it.
    3. Ask.com also do not follow it.
    4. King Google follow it and it does not matter to Google if you submit your sites in SB. But here is catch. I have seen that when we submit our new pages to digg, netscape(propeller), and stumbleupon our pages get index very fast. And it brings traffic. It may not be good for SEO but it helps in Indexing and attrating taffic.

    So do the mathematic, how it can help you. It is helping us a lot. Since we have started doing it, traffic from live.com and yahoo is equalling from Google and other resources. AM I HAPPY.....!!!!!

    A small Advertisement I want to put here. We are providing service of manual bookmarking as automatic submission put some machine generated codes and is not that much great. Our team is poised to provide speed in delivery in professional way. If someone is interested, we can discuss it. You can contact me at or PM me.

    Social Bookmarking = Driving untargeted traffic to websites.

    Marketing = Driving targeted buying traffic to websites.

    Not a hard choice to make.

    Just don't believe whatever someone posts as fact as often the person has experience in one very little part of business online.

    What works for a teen video site does.. not work for an Adult health care site.

    Know your market Know profits!

    Listen to hype....see how low the bank account goes....


    Market your services in the right section and not in the OPs thread!!
