    Social Bookmarking is not about creating backlinks....As the name suggest 'bookmarking' it is just about bookmarking your website on the web.

    Normally bookmarking is for individuals who want to share something with others and it's purpose is not commercial as compared to SEO companies.

    However bookmarking is highly effective as it gives you strong online presence through hundreds of 'bookmarks' or 'floating links' that you have left for others.

    It had the potential to give you some sort of traffic as well increase your online presence.

    I think social bookmarking is about links, but it also is part of the process of developing an online presence. All those links you gain should also be accompanied by regular social interaction, especially commenting on other people's articles.

    That pretty much sums it up! Although it's especially useful if the person has a lot of friends in their list because this increases the possibility of a nice link being passed on further.

    Social bookmarking is a new technique to attract visitors to your website through marketing your website in popular social networking websites and thereby attracting visitors to your website. It provides you with backlinks or inbound links to your site. It help you a lot in your link building efforts and probably increase your PageRank as well.

    As this is so easy to manipulate (look at any link building service and they will always offer a social book marking service) I think that Google would not put a lot of emphasis on this. Plus there are many sites that people simply wouldn't social bookmark (or even bookmark at all) or spread on Twitter or Facebook because of their content (e.g. a funeral home, help for piles etc.) and end of the day, without a human reader, Google is not going to know the content of your site nor have logic big enough to say (for x category sites social bookmarks are important, but not for y category). So, social signals, and especially bookmarks might be a signal but probably not too much of one. Another point - Google doesn't know the size of your target market. If I sell vitamins for fish and I have 5 social shares this is beyond excellent. However, if I am a celebrity magazine and I have 5, this is really bad. How will Google know that?!?!

    People who are saying that bookmarking helps in getting high quality backlinks and traffic, I do not agree to this...

    Social Bookmarking has no other purpose rather than popularizing your website on web. If we talk about link juice or value, that definitely will benefit the website but if you think that social bookmarking will yield high quality traffic then it is something too much for asking..

    Normally all the seo persons have hundreds of bookmarking list and they do bookmarking just like data entry job, which really is of no. use.

    Submitting site to selected no. social bookmarking sites and then working on then further is a better and fruitful practice...Squidoo lens really is very helpful if you work on it sincerely.

    social bookmarking is used for bringing traffic to a particular site at the same time it can get backlinks from search engines. Another reason is to keep your bookmark organized, manage and store.
