How to Use Social Bookmarking to Build Backlinks?

In the past I have used directories, forums, and blog commenting to start to build backlinks for my site. My next step is to incorporate social bookmarking. I have searched quite a bit online, but mostly get junk articles that repeat the same lame stuff (social bookmarking can really help your site, if you have a page that goes viral you will get a lot of traffic, do not use automatic submitters, etc.).

I only have one site and am a completely newbie to social bookmarking as I don't even use it personally. I want to research this topic first to make sure I start off the right way. My goal is not to spam, but to slowly, manually build up a good reputation and backlinks, especially dofollow. Can anyone give a detailed step by step guide to using social bookmarking sites? Which sites are good for building backlinks? Do I post an entire article from my site to the social bookmarking sites? Should I like/digg/stumble other websites in additional to my own? What kind of practices would get me banned? Thanks for all the help!

    You register to a social bookmark site, set your preferences, install toolbar and start browsing through web pages to find content of interest to you.

    You either browse through the pages others have bookmarked or you can bookmark to the site any pages of interest you find while surfing the web.

      I will take a look at that. Thanks. I was hoping though for some additional tips so that I won't be banned for spamming.

    Find popular bookmarking sites and make friends with other members who have the same interest as you so that there's a big chance of liking/spreading your bookmark links.

    Social bookmarks are good for getting faster indexing, There are various social bookmarks sites, I am sure you can find some good list on this forum too. Almost all SB sites need you to create accounts before bookmarking. It is simple, it is not hard as blog commenting and forums postings (in my view)

    If I submit only pages of my website to these kinds of sites will I be banned? Or I do have to mix in submitting other sites as well?

    • Social bookmarking is a powerful marketing tool. For maximum SEO results, write quality content that people are eager to share. It's not necessary to post the entire article on social bookmarking sites, but only a brief introduction. If you can submit content on an interesting topic, people will share will post and visit your website. Make sure you share other people's posts as well.

    I'm currently trying to do more social bookmarking myself - I've found "scoop.it" quite a good visual way to share blogs or news stories with people of the same interests. How did you get on?
