      I am beginning to think so too but the only reason for social bookmarking is to get backlinks. I agree Reddit & StumbleUpon are better.

      Yes, SB sites still working to get traffic and index your pages, blog, article etc. But only use some standard sites like stumbleupon, pinterest, reddit, delicious, diggo and so on.

      I am glad you bright up delicious because that is exactly what I was talking about, I have post a lot of links on there but I only see my profile coming up. Maybe I am doing something wrong or searching for the wrong keyword.

      Social Bookmarking got no much impact nowadays. Yes, you can use all social media platforms. Each are unique to some extent, make use of them in the right way.

        I don't think it is a waste. For branding its seems good because my name is the only time one of my profiles comes up.

      Don't take this the wrong way but are you posting just to get your signature link out there? You are posting the same thing; accept the changing of a few words.

    You can use social bookmarking, but don't expect to be flooded with much traffic. Lately, many are 'abusing the system' so to say.. which is why you shouldn't expect any miracles.
    And don't mistake social bookmarking with social media! They are not the same thing.

      I could see how people could abuse them. There are services that will automatically do the posting for you. I agree, social bookmarking and social media is not the same thing. I know but I don't think everybody does.

        Use social bookmarking sites such as delicious, diigo, stumble upon, reditt, en.scooper, newsvine etc ,
        add/ follow other people in there as possible,
        And When you post something, indirectly will show and read by people that you're following, that would be more effective and bring more traffic i think

    In my opinion social bookmarking sites still work. Specially Reddit, Stumbleupon and Digg are good source of traffic. So if you can use these sites properly, you can generate a good number of traffic.

      I agree, I use to see visitors from Reddit and StumbleUpon. On Reddit, it was because of a product that I think I posted the wrong price. I don't know what caused the traffic from StumbleUpon.

    Social bookmarking is a good tool to create additional inbound links to your content, which is always a good way to gain the attention of search engine bots and increase your page ranking. In addition, it works to market your online business in a viral manner by encouraging the sharing of content.

    The top 5 social networks and maybe Top 2 bookmarking sites are great. I could care less about others. You only go viral from those anyway.

  • Depending on what you use it for, it can work.
    SB is a great way to get traffic if your have thousands of real contacts/fans or you post something that gets viral.

    If you don't have many contacts/fans then SB can be used to get Social backlinks or for indexing purposes. This is what many offer, Social Boookmarking services to make your link look like an important one to Google's eyes.

    absolutely!... Google now looks at your social signals... so, I would definitely invest on increasing your social media content publishing... whether or not its a myth... but search engines are undeniable more focusing on social media conversations.. its the new SEO... use OnlyWire, Hootsuite, Buffer, Social Report, or others to streamline your social media publishing... don't buy fake likes or followers.. just my opinion

    Yup they are still up and running. i think you can analyze them before posting your link only post your like to those who has high pr and up and running. don't post on those websites who are just live but not having a good pr.

    I don't think social bookmarking works anymore until and unless you are doing it on high reputed websites like Reddit, Stumbleupon, and Delicious etc. These websites are still great for bringing traffic and building your brand value amongst users.
