I heard about this one a few months ago and have tried it a little. Once you have more than a few pages to promote then the 'once a day' thing is a little frustrating for the free service, but even 3 times a day for the paid service isn't all that much. I don't know exactly how effective it's been, but it's free and can't hurt. I did notice that FireFox 4 says the Social Monkee plug-in isn't compatible, for what it's worth.

Hehehe...when I first read this, I thought you were talking about Click Monkeys.

Click Monkeys!!

These guys are GREAT! They have a huge tanker just off the coast of the US and they have a TON of people just click-click-clicking away on my AdSense sites...making me a ton of money.

Thank God for click monkeys!

its socialmonkee.com and its a good website i have been using it for a while and for free its great, has saved me many $5 spends on fiverrr for a similar or unfinished job, considering its free it gets 2 firm thumbs up

Anyone satisfied with SocialMonkee service? For premium account, Is it really get 100 social bookmarks from different social bookmarking sites via Social Monkee? Please share your experience.

I use the free service. You can't use the plugin with firefox but if you go to the website it doesn't take 5 minutes, once a day. It seems to be working for me.

I got the free account by simply posting my referral link in this forum a few times in answer to posts requesting marketing ideas. I would create a tinyurl link that went to my referral url. I got 1 or 2 new members with each post. After 10 members, I got the ugpraded account and I'm still getting members from that. I'm up to like 23 referrals now!

And yes.. it's 100 free bookmarks.. and the report is included. They always check out. I don't know if there's much value in them as all the sites are created by socialmonkee it seems, but hey.. can't hurt.

It does what it promises though. I do very little backlinking but have a couple sites I hit with this.

Social monkey is a great little online application. If you have a website and want automated backlinks, social monkey is the way to go.

Don't multiple links from the same website count only once? So therefore, you're really only getting 25 links from socialmonkee, right?

I joined the free option about two weeks ago. So far so good!

It does take about 5 minutes a day to generate the entry for submission but I figure it would have taken me far longer to manually submit to 25 different sites to get valuable backlinks so I do it with a smile!

I have just not gotten around to promoting my affiliate link yet to qualify for a free upgrade but this is a great incentive for everyone to create 100 backlinks to your site daily as opposed to the 25 which come standard with the free membership.

The guys who are having success with Social Monkee, how long did it take for you to start seeing the backlinks get indexed after you pinged the RSS feed?

Here's a question, has anyone done a test to determine if these social bookmarking links have any effect at all on ranking? I noticed about three or four months ago that social bookmarking, what used to be my main back linking method did not work anymore, or had very little effect.

I dont think Google is stupid. This would not give a good SEO advantage eventually. But im gonna try it anyhow.

Yes i use this site and yes it helps.

I got a premium acct and I submit to it 3 times a day with 3 different url's. I can spread them out between 1 and 14 days so each of them get gradual and consistant links at different intervals. Bkmk is not waht it use to be but this will certainly add to diversification of your links. The way I see it is it will be 10000 links I didn't have.

[DELETED]

I use too,really easy,but dont see yet the backlink. But just only 5 days i do it.

Wise people should not use it to directly point it to their money sites. There is little to know value of this backlinks. I prefer it to use it for tier 2-3 of my link pyramid structure. They also have an article site backlinkkingdom which is once again an automated article submission to some of their network site. However, I have always been skeptic to use such linking method to directly point it to my money site.

I would like to know the experience of other people as well.

I must say that this software is little bit effective but i will fully try it and then shared my thought with all

Hey All,

I started using Social Monkee on a weekly basis (1-2 times a week) for the past two months. This was the ONLY thing I did for one of my sites (a dot us domain) and it ended up jumping from #8 spot to #3 within a month or so. I would def recommend trying them out. It's free...so what it can it hurt Enjoy!

It's a good service. The free version is good, but I'd recommend the premium one. You get 100 social submissions per link and you can submit 3 times per day (so 300 backlinks per day or 9,000 per month, all for a one-off fee). You also get access to the RSS feeds for each submission, so you can then ping and submit the feeds to further build their strength.

I'd recommend it

The links from Social Monkee are many pligg website. It will help your page index and have some back links. But you can not use this tool only to challenger with other sites.

Basically, Social Monkey lets you find where your friends are and what is going on around your neighborhood

I have never come across with such auto generated back link software or application. Those who are involved in using such software, let me know whether it is working. whether Google considers those links as a back link or in time you have faced some serious issues from Google.

Seems to be up and running at my end. Personally I think Social Monkee is the easiest of all Bookmarking tools out there.

They now have an Elite membership level for a one-off fee that supports 150 bookmarking sites. I can select 3-30 days to drip feed the links to any website I choose, fill in the fields and add in a few spin syntaxes and its done. Once the cycle is complete I get a full report of all 150 links. With certain other software I noticed that you don't quite get the actual number of bookmarks they claim to provide. But that hasn't been my experience with Social Monkee. You really do get what you paid for. I had some complaints about the Premium membership level since I wasn't able to bookmark a url once it's been bookmarked once. but now you can after waiting a certain number of days. This is even better in a way because I don't come across as spammer when the backlinking is done "sensibly". And it's a true set and forget website based app which makes it even better. The only drawback in my opinion is that they still only allow us to submit up to 3 urls per day. Hopefully a future update will change that.

I am not affiliate with the product in any way Just wanted to give credit to where its owed.

what do all of you use bookmarking for? your money site of just the links you create?

I signed up for the premium and made one submission which has been sitting for 3 days now..no bookmarks created yet..what the hell is up with social monkee ??

I started out with the free service. Then I upgraded to premium, followed by elite membership not long after. I scheduled 6 days of bookmarking (18 different urls). Reports are showing urls from sites I do not own and the number of links submitted were only 50 (not the 150 that I know I scheduled). After contacting support they removed the Urls from sites I did not own. Today I re-checked the reports and all of the bookmarks have disappeared. Still awaiting to hear from SocialMonkee support. Has anyone else had problems? Are their sites/network down?

Chris

It's always a good idea to find out where these type of sites are placing backlinks to your site, last thing you want is a Google slap for doing something Blackhat

I started a new schedule on 10/12. As of today it still hasn't started the submissions. Obviously the service is down. No response from customer service either. Customer service was spot on, with a fast reply, with my initial problems. I still have a few days before my 60 days are up. Hopefully it is resolved soon. Otherwise, I'll be asking for a refund. Only found out about the service through Shane (he recommended in his backlink battleplan) at imimpact.com He's the only guru I trust these days.

I haven't noticed any problems with submissions recently. But I'm certainly concerned about the recent problems / comments on this thread and lack of follow-up by the owners.

i tried this they created back links only 25 with socialnetwork sites not every day

[DELETED]

[DELETED]

I use the free version and its good , 25 links a day hurt no one , Im promoting it in my sites in order to achieve the premium account

As i observed, its good service. I use it for my clients websites and for my other blogs to get rank and reputation for my site, although PR is not to good for the submission site but its still pretty good to get 300 links a day.

[DELETED]

oh,you mean socialmokee? I'm a Premium Member now,but i don't think its a efficient site.

I've been a member since its early days and an elite member now, but I'm disappointed in the lack of results.

I have URL's in the que since the 10th of the month and nothing has passed through since. Support last week said there was a minor hiccup and things should be back to normal. Seems to be a big hiccup because several days later they are still sitting there.

Now I can't even get the site to come up. Server error. So for my 2 paid upgrades to elite I am not too happy at the moment.

I signed up for the free version a few days ago. I will post feedback once I see noticable results

I'm gonna sign up right now, having read this thread and done some research. I think I'll direct Social Monkee to my 2nd tier sites, not my main site, and see what happens...!

Andy

I'm trying it now...I will tell you if I get any profit out of that...

I have used this cool service for several months...It's very helpful since What we have to do is just fill url,tite,description and keywords..And then press the button...But I don't see any improvement of my site's rank..

Received my refund for Elite membership. For two weeks customer support tried to keep me on board. They kept saying it will be fixed in a couple of days. I'll reconsider IF they get their service back online.

The service is completely disappointing now. No reply from support and it's been a week. Posts stacked up in the que from more than 2 weeks ago!

Login in and all you constantly see is links pimping other affiliate products. Nothing completely wrong with that, but how about spending some of that time fixing your own service that some, including myself, have spent $100 on?

[DELETED]

I tried the free version, submitted my blog post to 25 social bookmarking sites and my blog post dropped a few positions..... Anyone have same experience?

How to get report from social monkee?
I've never submit but my friend told me that it's completely useless.

I've used the free SocialMonkee service to help with indexing but it's just a bunch of PR0 and PR1 pligg sites with a couple of PR2's thrown in.

Still no support replies and the que only continues to grow. After some extensive testing over the past few weeks I'm finding this useless for any SERP gains. In fact on some sites it has went the opposite way.

I'm finished with this service. Total waste of $100.

I've heard that it is good, I mean...it is what it is, cheap backlinks.

Is socialmonkee.com's server down for any one or just i am redirecting to another wall paper website page ?

"Important: We are currently performing vital upgrades to our systems, so for the next 5 days you will notice submission delays.
Thanks again for your patience, we are almost there, the Fast SocialMonkee is coming. All your reports will be submitted..."
this is what site says, but it more than 10 days here, still Social monkee is down.

Now its working properly, i have submitted my 2 URLs now.
Do not know if they will again down it for updates, my two clients are not happy with me now a days.

Classy website! Thanks for sharing

[DELETED]

I have been using it for awhile and so far I haven"t seen much results but then again I'm just starting out so hopefully time well tell.

Now after all Social monkee service providers have disabled the long description section :S --- Currently we are able to submit description with just 400 characters that are very low - They said they will increase it to 800 to 1000 words limit, may it will

I have NOT had good luck with Social Monkee. I have tried for several days and I have not been able to register or get any answer from the several support tickets that I submitted. On another thread I read of similar problems. I am done with Social Monkee. Useless to me if I can't use it.

not only heard used but no backlink added.nothing happened.

OK, I need to say this because it's SO important. If you look at your site, analyze your niche and put your thinking cap on, you can manually create backlinks that will get your site on Google's first page fairly easily. Looking for the shortcut only hampers your efforts in the long run. I only mean this if you are not trying to rank for keywords like "money" and "mortgage".

Social Monkee has been very unreliable lately, it's always down. I'm very disappointed i spent $47 on the premium membership.Anyone else having the same problems?

I was having some bad issues with Social Monkee at first but they are all cleared up. I could not even login or submit a support ticket. Finally I was able to get word to Colin (site owner) via youtube. Colin was very helpful and he promptly got me set up and I have been using it for a week or so. I able looking forward to seeing how it helps me.

Beyond building the links, are the links valuable? Anybody improving in PR or rankings because of it? What's the use? Just to build your backlink profile with something different?

Nice service you get free social backlinks for free, of course paid version is better but if you don't have money for this you can use great free version of this service too.

[DELETED]

Been using it for over 3 months now, many of the links do stick if you do the whole RSS ping/submit often. For the 'important' pages that I run SM to, I backlink (with SM) the social bookmark links generated as well, then do the same RSS/submit thing again and they do stick. Whether or not they have value is not as relevant I guess since they're low volume (150, I guess about 20% sticks).

For the price, it's cheaper than paying for fiverr gigs constantly, but it is a chore.

I use SM and have been for a while now.

My only complaint has to be about the submitting feature, sometimes when you submit for the 25 backlinks it will submit the articles with the spin syntax (so the article isn't actually spun) happened to me twice now, could be detrimental to your blog.


Only use it on my web2.0 profiles / properties these days.

Hmm that sounds cool. Does it actually work, though?

I just found out about social money a few days ago and I use the free service. You have to put in a different url every time you post if you use a free account. That would be my only con. If you put in the same url, if will not post. It is a great service, though.

Since it is free , we don't think that it will have any harm on us. Right?

[DELETED]

I think its great but I am worried that all my urls for my domain will have the same backlink ip leaving a pretty noticeable footprint

I always read this thread title from week to week thinking it's a joke, but...apparently it's not.

Social Monkee is a social bookmarking platform and is quite good for posting social bookmarks. As far as I know, they use their own sites to submit your links to, so they are different than most other social bookmarking sites.

There is a free and paid version. If you do not have a lot of money, the free version is fine, but the paid is certainly a good purchase if you want to take it seriously.

I am using socialmonkee since long time for social bookmarking and useful.

I use social monkee and it works pretty well. I only use the free service so I cannot speak on the the premium service. It makes you put in some spun text, titles and keywords and then it pings the sites. They also give you a txt file so you can check the links. All in all its a good free service but is best used on niche sites in my opinion.

Alright, I'll do my best to put all of this to rest. I have a top level membership at Social Monkee. First I joined for free and could submit one site to 25 of their social bookmark sites each day. I thought it was very useful, so I upgraded to the Premium membership level (through referrals, get 12 referrals and you don't have to pay the $47).

With the Premium level, you can submit three different URLs to 100 sites per day and you can stretch them to drip out over 7 days. When you upgrade, THAT is when you can actually see the RSS feed reports. It says all over that you can only see the reports when you have an upgraded account.

I saw how much this was automating my backlinking, so I upgraded once more to their Eilite Membership for a one-time $57 fee. Yes, I know that they are relatively low quality links in the grand scheme of things, but they are created on autopilot! They are definitely worth something and any part of my business that I can automate is great.

With the Elite Membership you can submit three different URLs to up to 150 sites each day. You can choose to submit to 25, 50, 75, 100 or 125 sites if you would rather. On top of that, you can schedule up to 45 submissions in advance. Plus, you can re-submit the same URL once every 6 weeks. With all other membership levels, you can only submit a URL once for life. Elite members can also stretch their link drip out to one month, so you can just drip a few links each day.

As far as the impact on my sites?? It's tough to say because I spend a great part of everyday working on my SEO. But, I can tell you that it is a tool that I use almost everyday and my sites are doing very well.

However, anyone that is saying that Socialmonkee links had a negative effect on their site is simply misinformed. I have used these links on nearly brand new sites without penalty.

I love Social Monkee! It's quickly becoming my favorite SEO tool. No, not necessarily because of it's effectiveness, but mostly because of it's ease of use. It seriously puts my link-building on auto-pilot and I was happy to pay the upgrade fee.

These guys are GREAT! They have a huge tanker just off the coast of the US and they have a TON of people just click-click-clicking away on my AdSense sites...making me a ton of money.

Steve,

spinning is a vital part of getting backlinks. The titles are things you make up, it is not meant to be the same as the ones on the blog post you want to promote... You are meant to make up your own titles and then spin them

@Colin.

As the reports have been lost for some submissions, does this mean that its advisable to delete those reports then resubmit the URL? Would this work properly.

Because when clicking on the RSS feed link nothing appears so there is no way to ping the RSS feed.

Cheers,

Does anyone know how they publish the book marks? I have been using social ADR and what does make them good is that as a paid member, all the free members are natually posting your bookmarks to earn their free credits. This means it is 100% natural as it really is people across the globe submitting them from their own accounts.

Downside with Social ADR is they are expensive. The $47 a month package still only lets you do 700 bookmarks per url. To get more, they charge further fee's on top of an already high ish montly fee.

Was thinking of trying social monkee but am a bit concerned that it seems they do the bookmarks themselves, presumably via a few servers and different IP's but Google is not stupid and works this out and this may look far more suspicious to google than social ADR's more natural approach of users making the posts.

Especially when your domains are new....

Cheers

Anyone have any views?

I have been trying to log in for the past two days and can't find their page.

Is Social Monkee gone?

Ive used them before. I didn't think it was worth the time and effort. IMO,the backlinks weren't worth the spent... that said, if you have the extra time and want to do, certainly nothing wrong with it.

Not a lot of people are talking about these guys, but I've checked them out and I'm considering trying them out.

Just wonder why I cannot sign up for the free edition of SocalMonkee here from Thailand where I live and work??
Anyone know why?

As I understand it, Colin Klinkert owns and operates SocialMonkee and BacklinkKingdom. BacklinkKingdom recently had all of it's sites deindexed.

This tool works for me, though i am still thinking for using paid service any reviews on this, will help me too.

I use the free service.
