Traffic Generation Part 2 – Social Bookmarking
Posted by David Wiltshire on December, 14th 2008Social bookmarking is another traffic generation technique that is very popular, and works very well. Have you ever bookmarked a webpage in your browser, so you can go back to it later? This is what social bookmarking is, except everyone can see what you bookmark.
It is free to sign up at the popular social bookmarking networks, and it doesn’t take too long to bookmark your site. When your site receives a bookmark, it shows the search engines that people are talking about, and interested in your site. This is a great way to get a ton of high quality backlinks.
It can be a bit of work signing up at all of the major bookmarking sites, but once you are setup, it goes a lot faster.
Here are a few of the top social bookmarking sites:
http://del.icio.us
http://listible.com
http://furl.net
http://flickr.com
http://slashdot.org
http://simpy.com
http://redditt.com
http://kaboodle.com
http://netvouz.com
http://fark.com
