Hi there,

I knew what social bookmarking was in 2008. But things always change in IM, so what is social bookmarking all about nowadays?

Are stumbleupon and digg still BIG? What sites are the most productive now?

How does social bookmarking work now, practically? Does it still work?

    Socialbookmarking is not about bookmarking your money sites anymore..it's about bookmarking those sites that link to either your money sites, or, links that need to be indexed...

    Social Bookmarking is still effective today, you have to bookmarking those sites that have relevancy in your money sites and necessarily to be indexed by search engines, but for me i think it will takes time to see the results.

    I use mixx, reddit, mister wong, delicious...and a couple others that I can't recall the name. When you get a good rhythm going, with cross promoting and cross bookmaring profiles...it has helped my efforts in the past.

        Hello friends.....

        According to me the Social bookmarking sites are doing well fro the SEO that are the important for the site. It is the best site to go away for the best result. That attracts the people by the back links and Page rank having the good position of them for the site .

        These are Face book and Twitter both are very effective for the SEO these time to increase the sites backlinks and Traffic for the site.


        Thanks.....

    Social bookmarking still have a great importance. New pages can be cached easily through bookmarking. Stumbleupon and digg are on top, but some other bookmarking sites are also very effective

      Yep I agree. Cheers

      Can anyone help out with this pls?

      From what I gather so far, it looks like Twitter, Facebook, Digg, Stumbleupon, Reddit are the best ones so far?
      Any others?
      How about Only wire? Looks like its a social bookmarking syndication site?

    Building up followers and fans via social marketing is still very important. Facebook and Twitter still seem to be on top but other social networking site like stumble Upon and Reddit are still attractive.

    I still get traffic from social bookmarking sites, but it usually only last for a day or two. We almost need a group of warriors to all digg and stumble each others articles. Ya know work together to get our sites up higher in the ranks for more long term traffic.

    I can see the trend of social bookmarking sites going to NO follow.

    Jumptags, Digg, Mister Wong and many others used to be do follow now all no-follow.

    Which ones remain from the PR5+ ones ?

    I use Folkd, Stumbleupon, Oyax and Reddit... Any others worth mentioning ?

      What do you mean they are going to NOFollow?
      You mean linking to your article from those sites will not help you rank higher?

    These days you don't try to sell directly, aim to earn the trust of your reader, provide useful information and it also pays not to be self centered and only bookmark items relevant to your niche. Diversify for information and it is best to use opt in page to capture subscribers.

      I want to talk to you about one part of marketing on the Internet that I absolutely hate: social bookmarking. You hear all over that you need to do it to help your pages rank better and to drive more traffic to your site. It's true. But there's a problem:

      It's incredibly boring!

      Is there anything more mind-numbing than clicking through to site after site after site and pasting in links? I hate it. Hate, hate, hate. It's so bad it makes me want to give up and not do it, even though I know it will help my sites.

      That's why I'm glad someone told me about SocialAdr. Suddenly that terrible task is crossed right off my list and I don't have to feel guilty about not doing it. SocialAdr is a new service that completely automates the process of getting my pages on the social bookmarking sites.

      It's totally revolutionary in the way it works: they have hundreds of users, an army really, that are all waiting to bookmark MY pages on their own social bookmarking accounts. All I have to do is put in the pages that I want bookmarked and the rest is taken care of automatically.

      Plus, I can let my pages run through again and again, with more and more different users linking to them. How great is that? Like I said, there's no work for me at all. Once I put my pages into the system, I can go grab a cup of coffee while SocialAdr does the heavy lifting.

      There is no way any system could make this easier for me. When I look for services for my business, I want 'done for me'. I don't want to have to mess around or learn some complicated thing. I want it to just work, and that's what SocialAdr does. It just works.

      Check it out, you'll be glad you did: CLICK HERE

    Guys, if you ever get hung up on do follow and no follow - DON'T!
    In terms of backlinking, yea sure, PR for trust passing is great and all, but it's not the end all, be all of backlinking. No Follow links are still good to get as well. Don't get hung up on paralysis of analysis.
