    bookmarking sites like Digg.com, technorati, Mixx.com, StumbleUpon and etc will help to drive traffic to your website, because their website index fast in the search engine.

    Here's the map:

    Social Bookmarking - The ability to bookmark your your website pages / blog post on the social bookmarking sites such as Faves, Digg, StumbleUpon, Mister-Wong and etc. By bookmarking your pages it can help increase the rankings of your site in the search engines because these bookmarks are counted as backlinks.

    Some think that you can not get direct traffic from bookmarking sites but this is false as I have already proven with many satisfied customers that you can get direct traffic from social bookmarking sites. The main purpose though is to increase your rankings by building backlinks.

      No bookmarking is mainly used to build backlinks but it can also get your direct traffic. Each time I bookmark one of my articles I get a increase of no less than 100 visits to that article within an hour or so..

      The main reason as stated though is to help build backlinks which will increase your rankings in the search engines.

        Spot on! The more backlinks you have to your website, the more "popular" it becomes in the eyes of Google. You gain popularity with Google, your ranking goes up.

        Also, when bookmarking your website, or article, or blog post, or whatever it is, make sure to use targeted and thought through keywords for your tags.

    go to socialmarker.com, sign up with digg, propeller etc, and socially bookmark your squeeze page to all the directories, this will give you backlinks and more traffic.
