Submitting to bookmarks sites which have not "no-follow" tag is a fast way to build tons of one-way links,but do you think it will cause google penalty? Thanks in advance.
nope, you cant get penalized for having a link on social bookmarking sites, if so some of the major sites will receive penalties because they get hundreds of submissions all the time. it is the publishers responsibily to put the no follow tag. and those are for paid links anyway, not regualr links that arent peid for.
I regularly use dofollow SB services for many sites. I am yet to see any penalty. Vary the keywords on different SB sites and make them look natural. Don't rely on SB or just 1-2 type of link building techniques. Having a diverse link profile helps a lot in achieving higher positions in Google.
I use bookmarking sites regularly, and also don't see a penalty. I've heard though, that you can get penalized when submitting a lot of links at the same time - you get a fast boost and a fast crash follows. (This would be from using a tool that submits your link to multiple BM sites at the same time.) I agree that it's a good idea to diversify your linking efforts. Articles work well, especially when submitting to highly ranking article sites. Posting to your blog, forums too. TonyaB
I am not sure of google coz too many things are happening these days let me know if any gets an update on this....
Nope!!! I personally use social bookmarking sites that without "nofollow" to increase page rank of my urls and shoot up to top ranking on Google for keywords which I target.
To everyone that's posted here, thanks a bunch. I've been increasing backlinks recently, mainly to nofollow blogs and today many of my pages have dropped serp from top 20 positions to way, way, way, way, way down low in the results. I'm more inclined to think its a data issue than a slap after reading this post. Cheers!
