Bookmarking Blog Posts

14 years ago

There's no such thing as the answer you're looking for.

There is no 'ideal' number of bookmarks per blog post.

If you don't want to upset Google then don't bookmark your main site much and do your main bookmarking on the links that come to your site - that way you're never gonna upset google because all you're doing is helping the links that point to you.

Just setup your blog posts (with onlywire or similar) so that they get automatically bookmarked when you post them and leave it at that.

If I publish 4 blog posts a day on one blog, how often should I bookmark the post? Should I do all 4 in one day?

Bookmarking all your posts in one day is alright I think. Nothing big to worry on that. But I am not sure what type of effect you will have by using software like bookmarking daemon, how Google will look at it.

Also, how many blog comments is ideal per post per day? I know if I do to much I can get de-credited on Google. I want to play it safe, whilst increasing backlinks.

You're worrying about something you don't need to worry about unless you do really massive and blatantly obvious automated link building such as 100,000 links in 24 hours. Even then, it won't be your site that's penalized, just that the links won't count. Let me put this in big bold red letters...

You cannot build too many links to your site.

I keep seeing people saying that - but it IS possible to get a site affected based on links alone (I've DONE it and seen it done), so it bugs me when people say such things as "it's impossible to get a site penalized based on links". That may 'seem' to be logical and you may not know the point at which Google see it differently - but that's not the same as actually knowing.

Simply because it is impossible to do this by manually building links to a site and it is extremely difficult to do it via automated means. Otherwise it would be child's play to penalize competitors by doing so. It is illogical to think that Google would penalize a site for getting a mere 100 backlinks in a day, which is the kind of stuff people post questions about regularly.

Don't mistake coincidence with causality.

That's what I keep hearing people say.

If you're stuck to it - I'm not going to try and convince you otherwise. Just don't kid yourself that your assumptions are facts.

You might find it helpful to wave a chicken foot at the screen while you build your 1 link a day.

Exactly correct ... Why people still put faith in this myth of building links to fast is way beyond me. It has been proven time and time again that google has no idea when or how those links was built. They do not know who posted them or even how they was posted.

Has nothing to do with automated software or doing it manually, its the same exact thing only automated will save you countless hours.

I will say it again ...

If I go to PrWeb and do a press release then that press release will have thousands of backlinks within hours ..

If I post a popular article and 1,000 blog owners pick it up and post it to their blog then I will have 1,000 backlinks all in the same day.. This does not in anyway hurt me.

Bookmarking is the same exact thing. Just be sure to bookmark other sites besides your own... This is perfectly normal and many companies take full advantage of it...

I wouldn't say it's absolutely impossible to get penalized for too many links too fast but I do think that the number would be high. Our team has PUMPED OUT TONS of links for clients by request (we get some who are mainly setting up for an upcoming launch that they will be an affiliate of and they want the initial rush so they ask us to build our arse off basically to help get them ranked up) and we've never seen them penalized.

But we're not generally building like 10k links in a day either...would be almost impossible since we use very little automation at this time (do most everything manually, we do have some bonus auto-submission tools we submit with on certain packages but the meat is still done manually).

So I'd say you'd probably have to go CRAZY with the link building to get penalized (at least in my experience) but as far as I know all we have to go on are assumptions. I've never seen or heard that anyone has figured out the magic number yet.

And I really believe the search engines pretty much expect you to bookmark your posts, it's a very common practice.

Thanks

I've been bookmarking upto 5/6 blog posts a day when I've been really promoting a site and It's been fine and had no adverse affect.

I would suggest though only pinging your site once a day though regardless of the number of posts.

Thanks
