Social bookmarking is very valuable
when it comes to back link building for SEO. Bookmarking is basically marking
(tagging) a site for future use. You can bookmark a site and simply click that
bookmark to access the site in future. Social bookmarking is somewhat
different. Social bookmarking allows you to save your favorite sites on the web
itself. For this you can create an account on a social bookmarking site and add
your site(s) to it.
For a
realistic view of social bookmarking, visualize the facebook and twitter,
because they are also social bookmarking sites.
Once you have added your site to your
social bookmarking account, you can easily share it with your friends, clients
or anybody on the internet. Social bookmarking is a great way to increase
online exposure. You suggest your site to your online social circle and if
someone likes it, he can share it ahead to his social circle thus giving you
more online exposure.
Social bookmarking is very
widespread and most of the people share their content with their friends
through social bookmarking sites. Social bookmarking sites specifically aim at
the things you are searching for. Making a search through a search engine may
take you to a plethora of information and you may not be able to find exactly
what you are looking for. But through social bookmarking sites you can exactly
locate your desired thing.
Social bookmarking sites not only
give you more online exposure and increase your sales but also end up giving
you quality back links. Because of frequent updates, most of the social
bookmarking sites have better search engine rankings and linking to them means
a high PR quality back link. This trend has resulted in Social Search Engines.
As webmasters submit their site by specifying accurate and descriptive title,
specific keywords and exact category. Similarly searchers can find out the
required info by specifying above parameters that best match their search
criteria.
The process of making your site
visible on social bookmarking sites is called Social Media Optimization or SMO.
SMO has evolved into a great tool for back link building due to the quality of
social bookmarking sites and their increased exposure. Also by submitting your
site to social bookmarking sites, you not only get targeted traffic but also
increase your search engine ranking.
Submission to social bookmarking
sites has always been a tiring job but now it’s just fun. Instead of submitting
your site to all social bookmarking sites individually, you can use these two
great sites.
These sites will allow you to
submit your site to top 130 social bookmarking sites with just one click. The
best thing is that they are absolutely free. And they don’t contain any auto
submission algorithm so it’s not going to result in any search engine penalty.
