Social bookmarks and signals question for a website

1. Reddit is very picky with what you bookmark so try to stay away from posting links from the same site. They prefer to see bookmarks from various sites and also try to keep your link descriptions interesting. If you do post links from your site spread them out over several days with bookmarks to other sites in between.

With Youtube as long as your video is unique and not infringing on any copyright, then you shouldn't have a problem linking to your own sites in multiple videos. Yes, keep your 1 account and channel strictly for videos related to your website.

2. Keep it simple and just use a standard username. People like to be social with people not companies, so when you bookmark something they'll feel more comfortable its from a regular person just like them instead of some company just trying to promote their stuff.

3. Depends on the bookmarking site. Like I said above, Reddit is very strict, when it comes to their bookmarks. Other sites like StumbleUpon have no problems bookmarking from the same site multiple times. Just keep the bookmarking to 1 particular site to once a day.

4. It's the same thing just makes it easier to share your post. Instead of opening lets say Facebook and copy and pasting the link to your post on their wall, they could just click a button on your site and share it instantly.

5. Like I said it makes it easier to share your content if you do, so I would highly recommend it. Visitors nowadays expect to see those icons on your site and if they don't they'll think that your website is out of date and probably leave.

Hey Alex, cheers for your response!
It explains a lot. I have the social media icons on my website too.

Just got a couple more questions.
I have 2 websites at the moment, they are both authority websites (or am building them to be), 1 I have someone doing SEO, and the other I will be doing SEO myself. They both target really low comp keywords. Going from the SEO report from 1 website I am trying to replicate it.

Basically how he did it was like this, over a period of 1 month, with days of no or little backlinking in between.
Social signals from g+, twitter, facebook.
Social bookmarks, he used a bunch of bookmarking sites and submitted posts to it, on the same bookmarking site there are posts from other websites he has submitted too.
Video sharing, youtube he has 1 channel with multiple videos from different websites.
Document sharing, once again 1 username/channel with mine and other posts posted to it.
Some guest blogging, redirects, and tier 2 links as well.

I was wondering if I could rank my website using the above method, but without guest blogging, and redirects? Tier 2 will come later. Basically it will be all high pr website submits to bookmarking sites, audio/video/document sharing, social signals etc. All only a couple a day with days of rest in between, and use my accounts to have other website posts as well so the sites im applying backlinks dont just have a bunch posts from 1 website.

Please let me know if im on the right track and any other ideas or tips?

Cheers!

Submitting unique and interesting content in different platforms is the best way to do and having social signals will tell the search engine that your site or page is engaging with its targeted audience.

1. For Reddit, I must say that it is a tricky part for placing all your site in it.

2. If you are creating a branded bookmarking, then at that particular moment you have to use your site name at the place of Username or Screen name. Else, you can also use person name.

3. Well, Reddit is very strict for that particular matter... it's not about only Reddit, it's the rule of all site that they don't allow a site to repeat in the form of bookmarking.

4. It's a matter of call by action. It's nothing but making the person to hit on it for enhancing your site in more detailed manner.

5. It's depend upon you that which type of services or site you had created. If you want a promotion for your resources and get some good amount of money from that, then it's a very important part for your site.
