You can increase your traffic by using social bookmarking widgets on your blog.It does not matter if your website is focused on stay at home business opportunities, flowers, or fishing lures.All social media community sites have their own widgets that you can place on your blog so other members can join your community, follow what you are doing, and you can connect with others and join their communities as well.This raises your authority and you will get more traffic over time.
Social bookmarking can be explained as the practice of saving bookmarks to a website and tagging with keywords. Bookmarking is simply saving a specific website address in your browser that you wish to visit later. There are hundreds of social bookmarking sites you could register with, store your bookmarks and tags.Visitors to these sites can then search for a specific subject by keywords or tags that the registered user has created.
There are many social bookmarking sites on the internet these days, but the whole “concept” is only a few years old. The oldest and best known services are de.lirious, Simpy and Furl.There are other well known and good services as Technorati, Digg, Sphinn,Mixx, Tailrank, Tumblr and Pownce.
You can use these social bookmarking sites to increase the traffic to your website almost instantly.Because anyone can join and search for information on these services it is simple to make social connections with other individuals interested in just about any topic.This where the importance of tagging comes in.If you write a post in your blog about search engine optimization, you should also tag your post with tags that are related to this.
The more related tags you have, the easier it will be for people to find your information in the social bookmarking service.Users can also see how many people have used a tag and search for all resources that have been assigned that specific tag.This will help you tag your posts better and receive more readers to your content, and more visitors to your website as well.
Write content that is interesting and useful to others, tag your content properly and submit it to the different social bookmarking services in the most accurate categories available.This will also help your search engine rankings in the long run.

I agree. Don’t forget the tags. I am starting to like http://www.quickieclick.com though they are still in early development. But I think the site offers quite a few good features especially for keeping tabs on my own sites. I also use http://www.digg.com.

This blog post is a nice example of link building through social marketing. Your blog is nicely linked out to relevant pages and user comments are using the keywordluv link building strategy. Even though it’s a dying strategy (blog posts), it’s importance should not be underestimated. Thanks!
Hi, can I just ask how long it takes you to social bookmark your content or even if you do it yourself? If you write a blog post, do you start the ball rolling by bookmarking it yourself or just wait for users from social bookmarking websites to pick it up? I only ask because my blog isn’t very popular so I doubt many people will find it and want to bookmark it?
Hi Colin, I sometimes social bookmark the blog post my self but you cannot only bookmark your own stuff all the time.I submit my post to the 10 biggest social media sites and it takes about 20 minutes.
