It’s been a while since we talked about social bookmarking… you didn’t forget about it did you?  Especially if you do list type posts like we mentioned the other day, these are the perfect types of posts for sites such as StumbleUpon or Digg.

People love to “remember” things they think they may need at a later date, and if they add your post to a social site, it will grab the attention of other users.  It’s best to have someone else do it naturally, but if need be, add your posts yourself.  Either way, the whole point is getting the post out there for even more people to be able to find it.

Plan one day a week, say Friday or Saturday, where you do a “bookmarkable post”, something that is sure to be a subject people would want to come back to, and make sure it gets out there for all that lovely social traffic!

Have you added propeller.com to your list of sites to bookmark to yet? If not you definitely should.

Formerly netscape.com now renamed propeller.com while netscape.com now points to netscape.aol.com, propeller is a great place to bookmark your blog posts.

It takes a short time to submit a story, but the traffic and the search engine listings you get make it more than worthwhile.

You just go to propeller.com, click submit a story on the right hand side. Copy and paste the url of the blog post you just made, copy and paste the title in, write a short summary, pick a category, add 5 keywords as tags, and you’re done.

If you participate there, vote on some stories submitted by others, and add people as your friends, you can share the story with them and they can vote on your story bringing you higher up in the directory.

Check google in a few days. Your stories submitted to propeller will start showing up. Pretty simple.

Add propeller to your bookmarking sites and you won’t be sorry.

So you bookmark your blog posts?

One of the best tools for marketing your business is social bookmarking. With just a little effort you can spread the word about your service from left to right and back again through social bookmarking - and it hardly takes any effort at all.

How long does it take you to write a blog post? 15 minutes? 30 minutes? 1 hour? In just a fraction of that time you can share the blog post with your friends at five different social bookmarking sites and let your friends spread the word as well. Social bookmarking is good for two things: Building more inbound links to your blog and driving traffic to your blog. Both can make you money.

There is no reason to skip this step in your blogging. There is every reason to include it. If you are not involved in social bookmarking and sharing your blog posts then I encourage you to get started today. You might not have a date for the prom, but there’s no reason your blog shouldn’t.

For those of you who have been submitting stories to netscape as a social bookmarking tool, things have changed without notice, at least without notice to me and I’m a member there.

Up until today, you just went to netscape.com and clicked submit story to bookmark a blog post or article you liked. Now if you go to netscape.com, it redirects to netscape.aol.com and you get your aol page with no submit story option.

Netscape must have been getting too popular and aol.com wanted the traffic going to their domain name or something.

Not to worry though, the old netscape.com can be found at www.propeller.com

Funny, it looks just like netscape.com looked yesterday, with a submit story button and everything. So your stories are still around and you can still submit. It just isn’t netscape.com anymore.

I’m making a list and checking it twice.

We all do pings and trackbacks, but do you also go and bookmark your blog posts at social bookmarking websites?

Do you have someone do that for you?

Do you just depend on trackbacks and pings and ignore social bookmarking?

If you do bookmark your posts, which sites do you use and why?

Do you feel it is necessary to social bookmark at all.

Anything at all that you have to share about mixing blogging and social bookmarking is welcome. I’d really like to get a working group going on this, so comment away and share what you know and what you think.
