Ever wondered about the fuss about social bookmarking? Well there’s good reason for it! Social bookmarking is a free and easy way to drive massive traffic to your websites, articles or blogs. And best of all, it can take just a few minutes to set up.
Here’s the social bookmarking system to drive massive traffic to your business:
1. Make a list of the best social bookmarking sites around. The 3 sites I often use for social bookmarking are Digg, del.icio.us (also known as delicious) and Stumble Upon.
2. For blogs, it’s also a good idea to use pinging services like Pingoat, Pingomatic and Technorati. Pinging is somewhat similar to bookmarking because they enable Internet surfers to find your website.
3. Be sure to tag your blog posts before submitting them. You do this by creating categories in your blog and posting the relevant posts under the different categories. You can also insert tags by installing a plugin for WordPress, as an example.
4. Start submitting your content to your list of social bookmarking sites. Do this for every new post you make on your blog, and some of your more popular articles. You will receive tons of targeted traffic, increase your sales and grow your mailing list at a faster rate – all for free!
As you can see, social bookmarking is a very simple process that any online marketer can put into action and start seeing almost immediate results from their small efforts! The time it takes for this process is probably about 10 minutes or less for each. Is that worth it? You decide.
