What is Social Bookmarking?


Social Bookmarking allows you to have one place where you can add, annotate, edit, and share bookmarks of web documents. There are many bookmark management services, at the end of the blog there is a list of the top 15 Social Bookmarking sites..

Many social bookmarking services provide feeds for their lists of bookmarks, including lists organized by tags. This allows subscribers to become aware of new bookmarks as they are saved, shared, and tagged by other users. It helps to promote your sites by networking with other social book markers and collaborating with each other.

These services have matured and grown more popular, they have added extra features such as ratings and comments on bookmarks, the ability to import and export bookmarks from browsers, emailing of bookmarks, web annotation, and groups or other social network features.

How Can You Use It To Your Benefit?

For individual , social bookmarking can be useful as a way to access a consolidated set of bookmarks from various computers, organize large numbers of bookmarks, and share bookmarks with contacts. Institutions including businesses, libraries, and universities have used social bookmarking as a way to increase information sharing among members. Social bookmarking has been also used to improve web search.

Social bookmarking have been used by some to a tool to use along with SEO to make their website more visible. The more often a web page is submitted and tagged, the better it cab be found. Spammers have started bookmarking the same web page multiple times and/or tagging each page of their web site using a lot of popular tags, obligating developers to constantly adjust their security system to overcome abuses. because social bookmarking generates backlinks, social bookmark link generating services are used by some webmasters in an attempt to artificially improve their websites' rankings in search engine results pages.

Found this article very interesting to say the least. It is good to use social bookmarking to your benefit. There are tons of little ways out there to get more visitors to your site sooner then later. When you get a chance please read the rest of the article by Wikipedia.

Social Media Coordinators Introduction to SEO

Getting traffic to your website or blog is one of the most important things for you site. It is not build it and they will come, I wish it was that easy. You have to implement some SEO techniques to get the niche leads & traffic you desire.

Organic Marketing:

This is a combination of using blogs, articles, video and keywords to get you ranked in the search engines without paying a cent to be on the front page of Google, Yahoo or Bing search engine. You chose the keywords that best describe your business. One of the top keyword tool is the Google Keyword Tool. Simply go to Google and in the search bar put in Google Keyword Tool. Click on and you will be able to find the keyword that you want to use for your topics. For niche searches you want to aim for 5,000-10,000 searches a month.


Pay Per Click Marketing:
Is when you chose a keyword from your niche, you will pay to be on the first page of Google or Bing search engine. So when someone clicks on your ad they pay per that click, the price can range from $1.00-$30.00. Facebook and Twitter now have PPC as well.

Directory Submissions:

There is a large number of directories on net that are paid and un-paid submissions. By categorizes these websites separate them by content type. You'll generally be able to give your listing a title, short description and link to your website.

The internet has un-paid submissions sites. What you do is write informative articles about your area of expertise, submit them to these article directories, and place an Author Bio at the end with a link back to your website. After submitting your articles to an article directory you give other people permission to reprint your article in their Internet publications such as websites, newsletters, blogs etc. as long as the Author Bio is include links back to your website, blog, Facebook fanpage, Twitter & You Tube channel.
