13 Oct 08 Social Bookmarking Sites and Your Website Traffic

Lately, I am very intrigued by the fact that social bookmarking is beginning to hit as a big topic. Granted, it has helped a lot of traffic to numerous websites as well. To be honest, I actually installed social bookmarking plug-ins last month and I was hoping it could generate fair share of traffic to my site. In fact, I come to realise that it is actually bigger than you expected.

(Courtesy of youtube and leelefever), here you can have a basic idea about social bookmarking. And yes, leelefever has several fantastic video clips that you can take a look. It is very educational and fun to watch.

What is Social Bookmarking?

It is basically enabling Internet users to manage, view, store their bookmarks online. There are several social bookmarking websites available and I used some of them. These websites allow you to add your particular page or article, so that it will somehow reach to public easier as there are many people sharing their posts and articles on these social bookmarking sites.

Advantages

• your web page got indexed easier. 
• draw major attention from several sites and finally pointing back to yours
• potentially building the backlinks without tricks
• can also rank a page on how many people have online bookmarked therefore, creating extra credit for your web page/blog
• easy to share among Internet surfers

After I have made a couple of posts, they will definitely be linked to sites such as stumble upon, facebook, digg, live and slashdot. So, here are the lists of social bookmarking sites. If you are using wordpress, don’t forget to install sociable plug-ins, so that you can create more traffic by promoting your own and of course your readers will love to bookmark some of the posts that are useful to them.

Social Bookmarking Sites Index

Please download the socialbookmarking PDF file (source: socialmarker 2008), and you can actually see the each website after you click on their links. But I prefer you have a social plug-ins, so that you can select more over 50 social bookmarking sites and submit your posts and articles easily. Moreover, any fan of yours can easily add your post as their favourite with just one click.

Any comments and suggestions welcome. Thanks for reading
