Social bookmarking question

INTERNET MARKETING

I'm pretty confused about how all this social bookmarking business works..
I mean, I do know how to get meself bookmarked by others n` all but I
have some questions;

-Can anyone plz tell me how many bookmarks/period-of-time is ok before
google(or the bookmarking site itself) start to think of my bookmarked site
as spam?

-I'd also wanna know how many bookmarks is enough?
I mean.. will having 100 bookmarks is better than 20? does it has any effect
from google's point of view? In short; should I stop getting bookmarks for
my site after it reaches a certain number, if yes wut's the number?

-I also heard(or think that I heard) somewhere people say that I need
to re-bookmark my site after I update it? is it true? and by "update" what do
they mean?(if it's true offcourse)

-And I also am very confused about keywords from social bookmarking...
Lets say I wanna rank for a certain keyword, so when I insert it into the
tags part of page does it tag the social bookmarking site only or google also
looks there and gives my site an athority for the tagged keyword? or is it
done somehow differently?

Aww, and what is the optimal number or keywords that I should insert there?
or should I just insert the main keyword of the site/(page?) there so it'll
give it most authority?

-And for last I wanna know if I need to bookmark every page in my site
that I wanna get ranked in google or just bookmark my homepage?

plz halp!

Cheers,
tony xD

Hanuka,

Social Bookmarking is a long and tedious process but if you do it effectively it can give you some very quality back links.

Doing it effectively -

Don't bookmark your page 50 times in one day - bookmark your page 5 times today then wait 2-4 days then bookmark it another 5 times... Google likes consistancey.

If you come across a bookmarking site that allows you to put in tags. Put in about 5 keywords and focus those keywords around what the title of your bookmark is.

You don't need to bookmark every page of your site... You need to give yourself a variety of backlinks not just from bookmarking.

Make some blogs (free), articles(free), or of course write in forums - all of which I say (free) but you know in reality your time is not free but at least your not physically spending!

I hope that was of some help to you.

To Your Marketing Success -
- Thanks

  Thx m8, and I'm more than aware that Bookmark backlinks is not the only way to get backlinks, hell, I'd put it at the end of my SEO priority list if I had one.
  
  But say, if my page is focused on 1 keyword, so should I tag my bookmark
  with that one keyword or add some general ones with it?
  
  And is it a good idea to bookmark all me big pages on my site? or just the homepage?
  
  cheers
  
  Thanks

  Tag your bookmark with that one keyword and that is all.
  
  Bookmark all of your big pages - rotate your bookmarks. socialposter.com

  You want to get all your internal pages bookmarked, not just your big pages
  
  when you create a website making the world aware of what you have to offer is the point
  
  I am always amazed on what pages get all the traffic many times none of the pages I thought.
  
  So this tells me which pages I need to improve or capitalize more on the ones that get the traffic.
  
  I think all of this is a crap shoot after looking at my stats for so long and observing where the traffic shows up.
  
  So make sure you spread out the link love observe in your stats how peopld come to your pages and tweak so more.
  
  For now the social bookmarking linking is working but also don't ignore other ways of driving traffic to your pages

  You should worry to much about gettting rank in google. I know people that have spent a year trying to get to spot on google. When they had achieve it that were still getting same amount of traffic..
  
  Google bought yotube for a reason. I went to a seminar about a 6 months ago and it was with ewen chia and some of the biggest internet gurus in the worlds and they all talk about how search engines are soon going to be an interactive site just like youtube and myspace.
  
  I can get rank in the search engine within a few hours using video. but im still getting more traffic from youtube than organic traffic. The only reason i would want to get rank high in google is so that i get rank high with the social media sites were the traffic is already.
  
  Thanks

  Traffic is a multi facetted strategy. If you're going to do social bookmarking you'll certainly want to use a service that allows you to bookmark the same page in multiple places at once.
