How To Use Social Bookmarking - The Right Way

One of the most prominent methods of marketing on the net today is social bookmarking. Yet, I feel as though getting a handle on it might be too difficult for just the average internet marketer.
Social bookmarking has a lot more to do with social dynamics than it does with internet marketing. The entire idea behind a social bookmarking site is to bookmark your favorite sites, and share them with others.
The very concept of sharing something that's awesome has been around for centuries, especially on the internet. And to use social bookmarking well, you need to understand some basic social concepts.
1. Social bookmarking can, to some degree, actually hurt your business
A lot of internet marketers believe that just because their site is bookmarked, tons of people will see their site and go to it, cash-in-hand.
This simply is not the case.
In fact, by bookmarking some sites, you are pushing more people away from them.
Let me explain: if someone views your bookmarked site, and doesn't like it, they will naturally want to keep it away from others (especially if it contains anything close to a scam or an online product promotion). Just because more people are looking at your site, doesn't mean more people will actually go to your site and buy your products.


2. Social bookmarking isn't about bookmarking, it's about sharing.
If all you do is bookmark all your sites, you won't see much of a result.
The idea behind social bookmarking is similar to the idea behind Face-book or You Tube, people want to share what they like.
If you post an interesting website, with cool and useful content, and someone looks at your site, they will send it to all their friends and family. Then if they like it, they will do the same.

Social bookmarking isn't about bookmarking, it's about starting a chain reaction that will lead you to gigantic profits.
That's why you need to keep one specific thing in mind: bookmark your passions, not your business.
When you bookmark your casual blog, or your favorite web page, you are bookmarking something because you like it and want to share it with others. By that very principle, others will do the same.
So don't bookmark your general website, with tons and tons of information that might not interest anyone, bookmark your recent blog post about new philosophical findings, or your latest "book of the week" award.
Bookmarking is just sharing on a larger scale, so share something of worth.

Social Bookmarking Can Help You To Get Indexed Quickly

In order to get your website or article indexed by the search engines in as short a time as possible you will need to obtain quality links directing to it, fortunately social bookmarking can help. It is a well known fact that Google will frequently visit quality websites that have a number of quality links and if there is a link to your website on there then the search engine will go ahead and look at that too. Through following your link it will be able to index it. It is through this process that you will be able to obtain a good rating and rank highly on the search engines.
In years gone by it was difficult for people who were new to the internet to get their websites indexed. This was due to the lack of sites that allowed us to place links on them, we would therefore ask others to give us links. Alternatively we would submit our own websites to Google and hope for good results, some people would end up purchasing links. Fortunately these difficult issues are in the past and we can now submit our websites far more easily via social bookmarking websites. If people find your website useful and interesting then they will bookmark it and add further links. Whatever happens, it is now far quicker to become indexed.
Tips To Remember Regarding Social Bookmarking:
• An article is far better than the homepage of a website. You are much better off submitting an article with good content as opposed to your website homepage, as this typically contains graphics.
• You should never submit rubbish content. An article about pointless information will do you no favours, so therefore you should ensure that you submit information about things that people are interested in. Your information should always be relevant and shouldn't become boring to read.
• When social bookmarking, do not focus on just your own pages. Too much self promotion on bookmarking websites is not good and some sites will even ban you for it. It is therefore a good idea to submit articles and sites that you are interested in, as bear in mind that the more links you have for other sites the more likely they are to return the good deed.
• Take a look at the various bookmarking tools that are available as there are some great ones around. Many social bookmarking websites have tools that allow us to invite people to view our pages and bookmark them for future use.
