SMO or social media optimization is a system in which by using the attributes of search engine optimizations your web site is optimized amongst the most happening online communities. This can either be done by strewing links all across the community website to facilitate back linking or by strengthening the interaction podium by writing numerous blogs and constantly updating their content. This will serve to recreate interest in your blogs amongst your regular visitors and have them coming back for more; though with additional company. This therefore is a more effective method of drawing traffic to your website. So by now it is clear that if you have to popularize your brand you need to popularize your website. The guidelines below will simply help you a little in that endeavor. Join a social media platform, for example---Digg, Delicious, twitter, facebook or Technorati. Besides the obvious advantage that your website will be looked up as a very ‘in-thing’ it will also improve the ranking and stature of your page in the tech community.
Simple tips for Digg: Complete and fill your profile. Be an active member, read diggs and digg them if it interest you. It's helpful to make comments. Don't digg low quality content. Follow other diggers. Don't promote always your content, try to send diggs from different sources. Ask your friends to digg your content. Don't digg your own posts because Digg can recognize when you do. Digg more than single item at time. It's important to get diggs and give diggs for other quality content. Remember about good title and description of your content. Nowadays it's harded to get on Diggs main page. Also when we get traffic from Digg it has short live. But still it's good source of quality traffic when we have something important to share with Internet users.
I agree. A person need to build his reputation first at Digg before he can benefit from it but still it can still offer a good source of traffic. I would also recommend Pinterest because it gives you an opportunity to expose your post to your target market regardless if they are connected to your network or not. You just need to post at the right time of the day ( when most users are active) and make sure that you add a catchy tagline with it
