Delicious- How to get Huge Traffic?

Hello to every one,

I read somewhere that delicious provides a huge source of traffic to the website but I am unable to get traffic to my website.
Please any one can suggest or explain the working of delicious.

Thanks in advance.

    You need to have a good number of thumbs up in order for your posts to be on the homepage of delicious and thus receive huge traffic. IF this had been any easier, people would have become rich by promoting their websites on delicious. lol.

    Delicious is the top social bookmarking website and has around 10 million active users. Though it rarely sends traffic, you can still tag your articles there as the submission is super quick and easy. Delicious.com allows its users to group link with the identical topics that can be gathered from the "stack".

    I think the smarter way to get traffic off Delicious is to think out of the box.

    Everybody and their dog is trying to get on the front page.

    Everybody is trying to get that huge surge of traffic.

    I'm telling you right now, if you get that flood of traffic, most of those people probably are not going to convert.

    Why?

    Lack of targeting.

    If you want to succeed in any kind of online marketing, you have to focus on targeting.

    The better to get traffic off Delicious.com and any other kind of social bookmarking website, for that matter, is to look for people with specific interests.

    Pay attention to people who like certain websites and who bookmark certain websites.

    Look at their collected links.

    If you noticed that your competitors figure prominently in a person's collected link list, contact that person.

    You'd be surprised as to the kinds of blog alliances and brand alliances you can come up with by simply reaching out to these people.

    A lot of these people actually turn out to be quite influential on social media.

      This! Targeting the right people is key! Sure, getting yourself on the front page could also mean people interested in you will notice you exist, but the idea is to put your efforts into reaching the right audience.

    To get traffic from Delicious you can try these steps

    1. Write Great Titles
    When you submit a piece of content to del.icio.us, take the time to write a great title for it. Many del.icio.us users will see your submission and decide whether or not they want to click on that bookmark to read the original content or bookmark it themselves based solely on the title you give it.

    2. Add a Great Description
    Don't stop at writing a great title. When you submit a piece of content, take the time to write a description that will entice del.icio.us users to click through to read the original content or bookmark it themselves. Make your submissions too interesting to pass by with great descriptions.

    3. Use Relevant Tags
    If you want other del.icio.us users to find the content you submit, make sure you tag your bookmarks intuitively. Think of what tags other users would search for to find content like what you're bookmarking, then use those tags in your bookmark submission. The content you submit doesn't have a chance to generate any interest and traffic if no one can find it.

    4. Make Friends
    Build a network of friends on del.icio.us. Follow other users, bookmark their content, and develop relationships with them. A strong group of del.icio.us friends can have a powerful influence in terms of drawing attention to bookmark submissions.

    Content is important, but promoting exiting content is even more significant and there are several tools that I’ve started using successfully.

    Do not market to your target audience, market to the people that influence them.
    This can be as simple as linking out to influencers in a blog post and allowing them know about it.
