simple question..

are social bookmarks links penguin friendly?
it would make sense that they are, considering the update seems to focus on Social networking, twitter, blogs, and user experience.

but i know they are a large part of 'pre penguin' SEO tactics... so was wondering how google is currently seeing them.

any help would be great !

thanks guys

    Hi
    Google is user friendly,

    Penguin update was to demote sites that violated Google’s Webmaster Guidelines. Sites that used manipulative techniques to improve their rankings, and some innocent sites that may have appeared manipulative to the algorithm, lost their high positions in the search results.

    These manipulative techniques, referred to as “black hat,” include keyword stuffing, cloaking, participating in link schemes, deliberately using duplicate content for search engine benefit, and excessive use of exact-match keywords in links and content. Similar techniques also came under fire.
