Google has just done another update. And many website owners have been ’slapped’. However, those with good social bookmarking tools have largely avoided any penalty. Why? Good backlinks!

Social Bookmarking to Increase Blog Traffic
By Mark Petrelli

 With the staggering amount of blogs on the internet today and hundreds more being added daily, the competition for blog traffic is very fierce especially within the more popular subjects. Blog owners are trying hard to update their content regularly and expose themselves to the greatest portion of the relevant audience. However, this is getting harder and harder to accomplish. This is mainly due to the big search engines continually improving their tactics on how to index websites. In the beginning, it was easy enough to submit your website to link directories and thereby gain sufficient backlinks allowing you to get indexed. However due to certain techniques, such as spamming, the search engines have had to change their algorithms in order to assess whether a website is original containing relevant content or not. The next technique that was abused by site promoters was the blog and ping. This was one of the most powerful web promotion techniques when it originated. However, with the abundance of blogs and those creating blogs only for website promotion, there was an incredible volume of blogs that appeared. Originally, it was easy to get the blog indexed in the search engine with a high ranking but now this technique is not as effective. Therefore today, it is very difficult to use blog and ping to achieve high search engine rankings. One of the most popular techniques used today for website promotion and increasing blog traffic is article submission. Although this is a proven effective method, it is very time consuming. If you have the patience and knowledge, this venue would no doubt lead you to highly targeted traffic to your website. However, most web promoters are looking for quick and easy solutions to their problems and that is when social bookmarking comes into play.

Social bookmarking is basically saving bookmarks to a public website and "tagging" them with keywords. It is named "social" bookmarking because others can see your bookmarks and tags as you can see theirs. This creates a social environment in which you can collaboratively share and exchange websites that are relevant and to your liking. Now, how can one utilize social bookmarking to increase blog traffic? The technique is simple. If many people bookmark your website, then other web visitors will also be persuaded to bookmark it. Ultimately, as more and more people start bookmarking, the website becomes increasingly popular in the online community. The best part is that the audiences that will look at the bookmarks are already sharing similar interests and therefore the traffic to your website will receive will be highly targeted. Unfortunately, people are abusing this system by creating many accounts in the attempt to spread their websites into as many positions as possible. Therefore, there are measures being taken today to combat these abusers and delete the excessive accounts. Overall, if used properly, social bookmarking can increase your blog traffic substantially by sending highly relevant traffic to your blog.

There are several software on the market that have automated the social bookmarking processes so that you can spend less time with increasing blog traffic and more time writing content. Each of this software has their benefits and drawbacks since they have varied approaches in submitting websites to the social bookmarking sites. There is a review of the most popular social bookmarking software at the link below and see for your self.

Social Bookmarking is the fastest and easiest way to work yourself up search engine rankings to create more sales, drive more traffic faster. I have reviewed the top social bookmarking software on the market here SOCIAL BOOKMARKING REVIEW. This will show you the best legitimate solutions for highly targeted traffic and how to keep it!

As you know, social bookmarking is the best way to get fast traffic with the current search engine algorithms. So..

 Why not use some automation to put your bookmarking on autopilot. If you can’t afford a small fee for automation, consider this manual technique:

Fast Way to Social Bookmark a Blog Post
By Jeff Schuman

If you are not bookmarking your blog posts you are missing a valuable step. Let’s take a minute to talk about social bookmarking and a quick way you can get your blog articles out in the marketplace.

The website that I have been successfully social bookmarking my blog post has been Onlywire. As I write this they have 22 social directories that you can join and will automatically be posted to when you use their service.

This is free to use and just takes a little bit of effort on your part to join the various social directories. You will have to join each one individually, and then go back to Onlywire.com and enter your username and password for each directory.

They even offer a short tutorial on how to get set up with them which is worth taking a look at. Once you get set up you can now have your blog post submitted online 22 times with one click.

The importance of this is understanding the difference between being found naturally by your RSS subscribers or normal visitors. Or being found by visitors coming to 22 separate directories, as well as the search engine bait that these posts can provide for you.

One other thing I suggest is that you take an extra step and join three other social directories and take the time to individually bookmarked to them. Those three are Stumbleupon, Digg, and Propeller.

If you will write blog articles of 200 to 300 words and do this bookmarking process you can get a blog post online in the market, where a will be seen by readers and found by search engines, in less than 30 minutes per article.

The benefits to doing this are many, and you should be using this website to social bookmark all of your blog post.

Social Bookmarking the Truth Revealed
By John Currie

Social Bookmarking Facts

 Coined by delicious in the late 2003, social bookmarking allows Internet users to save and organize bookmarks to a public website, tag them with keywords, share them with others, and see what others have bookmarked.. Although they are oftentimes public, the bookmarks can be saved privately and share them with a specific group of people or friends.

If you wish to make a collection of social bookmarks, you have to register with a social bookmarking site. From there, you will be able to save bookmarks, add tags, and set a bookmark as public or private.

Social Bookmarking Tags

This is primarily because a tag-based classification of Internet resources is performed by human beings, who comprehend the content of the resource.

Social bookmarking has disadvantages, however, as it is mainly done by amateurs. As the social bookmarking sites cannot oversee how the resources are organized and tagged, an inconsistent or use poor of tags can take place. Another downside is that social bookmarking means saving data in another location that has to be maintained and updated.

On the other hand, social bookmarking submission has evolved to be a popular search engine optimization tool (SEO) for SEO professionals. It has now become a simple step to making your site get noticed and generate more traffic. A brief description of SEO is that it is a process of improving a website’s quantity from search engines through natural search results for targeted keywords.

Social websites such as Del.icio.us, Digg, and StumbleUpon are known to maximize the exposure of a particular website to a larger audience.

If you have had any question about the power of social bookmarking, this should put your mind at ease:

Social Bookmarking Websites And Their Marketing Benefits

by Bob Bastian

 Times are changing in the internet marketing landscape.

Whereas before, online businessmen tried their best to keep abreast of the latest strategies that will help them place their websites in beneficial positions in relevant search engine results, nowadays, they are trying out some new tactics that are completely different from their predecessors.

The trend in this day and age, you see, is veering away from the rather mechanical operations of search engines, and leaning towards the more accurate and humanized features of user-driven indexing systems.

Did you get lost somewhere in that statement?

Such is but natural. You see, current trends are dealing with new technology and new approaches that a significant adjustment must be made in terms of the online marketer’s mindset as well as the skills required to make it big in these changing times.

The Death Of SEO

Search engine optimization, or SEO, has dominated the Internet marketing industry for many years. It has been said that 80% of the traffic that can be generated for our online business will come from the search engines. Hence, getting a good position in search engine results pages (SERPs) has become the Holy Grail for most online businessmen.

But search engines are not without faults.

Search engines rely on spiders-robotic little creatures-to crawl through each and every single page in the World Wide Web. Thereafter, these spiders will index the pages according to the algorithms prescribed by the search engines.

Everything is automated. It’s either black or white. There are no gray areas. Hence, it can’t be helped that some pages will be placed in categories different from what the publisher has intended.

Trend Towards User-Driven Indexing Systems

User-driven indexing systems, on the other hand, allow the users themselves to classify websites under appropriate tags. The application of human discernment makes this approach more reliable and more credible for many people. After all, human eyes saw those pages. And the human mind processed their content and indexed them appropriately.

Social bookmarking websites are the most popular kinds of user-driven indexing systems. There are a lot of these in existence today, and judging from their page ranks, they are widely visited pages. The most renowned of these social bookmarking websites are furl.com, technorati.com, del.icio.us, and feedmarker.com.

Social Bookmarking Websites Explained

What are social bookmarking websites, exactly? While viewing web pages on your browser, you may have noticed a feature that will allow you to save a particular URL under your "My Favorites" folder. Click on the "Add To Favorites" button and you’ll be able to save the URL on your hard drive. This process is called bookmarking. The saved URL is called a bookmark.

Social bookmarking websites work the same way. But instead of saving a URL on your hard drive, you’ll be able to save it on a web server, under an appropriate tag.

If you visit a dog grooming website, for example, and you liked it a lot, you can save the URL under the tag "dog" or "dog grooming" in the space provided by any social bookmarking website.

What makes social bookmarking websites stand out is that you can share your list of indexed sites with other people. They may be looking for information about dogs, and your list can help them out a lot.

Marketing Advantages Of Social Bookmarking Websites

This relatively new technology presents a lot of useful possibilities for an online businessman:

- Experts predict that social bookmarking will soon replace search engines as the information finding process of choice by most Internet users. The best way to capitalize on this emerging phenomenon is by starting to position your online business using its features as early as today.

- Social bookmarking can easily be manipulated. You can place your own websites in favorable positions without having to go through the whims of search engine algorithms.

- Tags are beginning to establish an interconnectivity that reaches many platforms and many channels. Social bookmarking websites can easily become the launch pad for your conquest of specific tags which are considered as the "keywords for the new millennium."

The new generation of internet marketing strategies starts with social bookmarking websites. Master this particular channel and you’re sure to garner an avalanche of traffic from sources which were once unknown.

Bob Bastian is a successful online marketer and a full time Internet entrepreneur. He will teach you how to get enormous passive income using a system (non-MLM) that so powerful, it recently featured on two national television networks: Wealth-O-Matic.com

I just saw a post in Firepow that one of the members there got a #18 position in Google for the target key phrase in less than 12 hours using these tactics. Putting your Social Bookmarking on Steroids is the only answer to controlling your traffic.

Yesterday, I gave you four tips on getting the most out of your internet campaign with social bookmarking. Here are the rest of those vital tips: 

Tip #5 Social bookmarking websites generally require you to provide a description about your articles. The description must be brief, well-written, and packed with details. You’ll usually have to work with a limited number of words so better make sure each word counts. Secondly, remember to include targeted keywords in your description. Thirdly, keep it honest and real: don’t use hype!  

Tip #6 Get your creative juices flowing for the introductory paragraph. This is one of the most important parts of any free article. It must contain the bare facts of the story but delivered so interestingly that you can’t help to read more.

Tip #7 Think about user convenience. If you want your articles to be bookmarked then make it easy for people to do that. Place all the necessary links on the bottom of your work. Remember to visit your articles and check if the links are in working order.

Tip #8 Timing is important. Once you submit your work, you’ll be able to enjoy display on their home page for approximately 24 hours only. To maximize on this, try to coincide your submission with the most probable hours that your target market would be online.

Tip #8 Last but not the least, remember to end your works with an invitation to bookmark your work if they like what they’ve read.

A social bookmarking site lets users create bookmarks using links then categorizing them and making recommendations. If you get the notice of social bookmarking site users, your website is sure to enjoy a constant flow of traffic.

How to Use Social Bookmarking to Generate Traffic for Your Website

Tip #1 Use excellent headlines. Social bookmarking users will notice the headlines of your articles first. If they don’t like your headlines then it’s improbable that they’ll give the rest of your works another chance. Keep headlines short but catchy. Remember to include targeted keywords in your headlines.

Tip #2 Use equally excellent sub-headlines. Getting people to like your headlines will only make them read your works, but that’s not enough to bookmark your website. One thing that will get them to bookmark your website is by using sub-headlines. These make it easier for them to skim your articles and when they like what they see, it will convince them to read your entire work.

Tip #3 So you’ve got this far. You’ve gotten people to read your work. Hopefully, you’ve come prepared. Your content must be original or at least originally written. It’s unavoidable when people get to write the same topic based on the same source. When that happens, how do you make your work still original? Simple: you write it in your own context. Change the format and more importantly, contribute your two cents’ worth.

Tip #4 Grammar is very important. Even if your target market doesn’t mind or even notice grammatical errors in your articles, social bookmarking website users do not fully represent your target market. They come from all corners of the globe and all walks of life. Many of them will surely note and care about your grammar. If you want to impress everyone, review and proofread your works several times before you submit them for social bookmarking.

Tomorrow, get tips 5 - 8. If you are trying to get this type of traffic from your social bookmarking campaign, consider automating your social bookmarking.

How to Rake in Instant Social Bookmarking Traffic by Tonight
By Fabian Tan

On the Internet explorer from Microsoft or any other popular browsers, you will see the ‘favorite’ button. This facilitates marking the web sites you frequently visit. For repeat visits, you open the ‘favorite’ list and just click on the URL instead of typing the entire web address. Social bookmarking is an extension of this facility with some additional features used by millions of web visitors today.

The Web 2.0 environment

With the advent of web 2.0 technology, social bookmarking provided the facility of sharing each others’ bookmarks or favorite links. In addition, visitors can also vote on or rate web sites, content, etc., and even share personal links. This interactive feature incorporated into the social bookmarking has made it a very popular tool in the hands of webmasters and internet marketers, to generate social bookmarking traffic.

Quality against quantity for social bookmarking traffic

You can gain plenty of social bookmarking traffic when your website is bookmarked with a number of these social bookmarking sites such as Technorati, socialmatic, del.icio.us, or even the social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace, mybloglog, friendster etc. Submitting large number of articles to these sites will not help since people only look for quality.

Catering to the visitors’ interests

If you research to understand the needs of the visitors and feed appropriate content, then you can experience phenomenal growth from social bookmarking traffic. More traffic would obviously lead to more conversion and even small percentage changes can bolster your profits in quick time. Go for it now.
