Social Bookmarking For Link Building



Traffic from social bookmarking sites is notoriously unreliable. They tend to drop in and disappear again within 30 seconds. If you have something special, they may stay around longer. If you are using social bookmarking to gain traffic, forget it. However, if you are using it for link building, go for it.

If one of your pages gets bookmarked and receives a few votes, you may see your traffic spike a little, ignore it. Having your pages submitted to social bookmarking sites can have several benefits besides traffic.

Most social bookmarking sites flow link juice. Every time one of your pages gets submitted, it will get linked back. The more pages submitted the more link juice that will flow. The more sites you submit your content too, again, the more links.

If there is a word of warning, there have been mutterings around the web that Google will start looking at unusual social bookmarking activities and discount unnatural activity. What defines unnatural? Who knows. For now it is only a rumor. However Google are famous for trying to shutdown anything it considers unnatural. Social bookmarking can help increase the number of links coming in to your site.
