hi warriors,

ive recently joined digg & stumbleupon ive registered with & them & submitted our website details & with digg im digging the posts on the digg site & im submitting my own news article links i can find & with stumbleupon im marking sites using the toolbar & joining lots of social groups which are like forums & on both sites making friends/contacts to increase my profile.

can someone tell me exactly how this promotes business for us? because its soooo time consuming & ive just started with 2 digg/stumbleupon & realise ive got delicious + sharethis + reddit to do yet? shall i ? is this a worthwhile task? or just stop now?

some marketers just say submit to 50-100 social bookmarking sites & thats it...so do i just submit our website url & descirpiotn etc & just leave it rather than maintaining this & building this like i doing on digg & stumbleupon?

appreciate some advice.thanks.

    well a better method that i used and others...i just made a blog, put articles regarding my product...and then bookmark the blog to around 40 social bookmarking websites..and the whenever i put another article on my blog i pinged them so it gets updated. and i managed to keep one of my blogs in the first page of google for some time. oh...all the articles had a link to my official website at the end of them...kinda like offering my product as a solution to the problem discussed in the article.

        Hi,

        so would i need to write my own blog, update this with new info on a daily basis, & bookmark to those social sites & use ping to update them on 40 other social sites?

        but how would that drive traffic? as this doesnt biuld theat profile does it?

          Do you know about social marker?
          its really cool. you sign up once, then use the tool whenever you want to promote your websites.

          I post an article on my blog. Ping it so it is recognized as the unique one. Then, a couple days later I social bookmark the post. That seems to work pretty well.

              You should consider using software that will cut the time it takes to submit to bookmarking and social media sites.

              Be careful not to go for automated options that could get you quickly banned!

                  Hi, but really need answers to the below if you can help, please do:

                  but when people say:
                  I post an article on my blog. Ping it so it is recognized as the unique one. Then, a couple days later I social bookmark the post. That seems to work pretty well.

                  i dont understand this at all!!

                  so ok have a blog post an article o this & ping this to update the other sites like digg, delicious, stumble but then is that all i have to do? so i dont need to individually log onto the sites like digg & digg other posts dont need to make friends or submit other posts as u would have on digg? is this correct? can someone verify?

                  i also dont understand when info is updated through ping etc apart from google where does that info go on the social bookmarking site like digg? is the profile updated? do the friends associated on the digg profile get updated with new info? what actually happens apart from google detected activity? hope someone can clarify.

            i do understand social marker is an easier way to upload to several sites.
