,

Link building has become a routine for every site owner who wants his site wants to make it to the top of search results in the internet. Apparently it seems search engine rule the internet platform and only favors sites which it considers popular. To get your site viewed, you must develop numerous relevant back links so that as the search engine robot crawls other sites with high page ranks, your site is recognized.

One such big method of link building is through social bookmarking. This proven method by search engine experts is the only surest formula that will see your site hit the front pages. It simply involves either bookmarking your websites page or URL. Ensure you also get a code from the bookmark site which you will be able to attach to your website or blog. It is usually embedded below your posts so that when a visitor lands on your website after reading your content, have an easy opportunity to bookmark your site.

Building backlinks using social bookmark sites should be done correctly. You must be able to recognize sites that are relevant to your content and have quality information. You must also realize that not all bookmark sites will give you quality backlinks. So just going about tagging your websites URL on every social bookmark site is not a strategy here. Actually you will be penalized by search engines for spamming. If you are not certain, get an expert to help you with the process.

Bookmarks with high rankings include Twitter, Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit and Del.icio.us that will automatically reward you with good page ranks. Your webpage must also have quality and interesting content providing relevant information to the user.

Favors will be given in return if you also bookmark other people's content relevant to your keyword. So don't be mean, it's a social network where people interact.

What Is Social Bookmarking? And How to Sign Up for a "Delicious" Account

,

Here is situation we all have encountered. We find a website we like and save it to our favorites or bookmarks list on our web browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Netscape, etc.). We later visit a friend or family member and want to show them what we've found. Unfortunately, we can't quite remember the site's URL exactly. We also can't access our favorites or bookmarks from their computer. It's frustrating, right? Not anymore. This is where social bookmarking can eliminate this and many other moments of frustration.

Social Bookmarking is a method for Internet users to share, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web resources. Unlike file sharing, the resources themselves aren't shared, simply the bookmarks that reference them, as defined by Wikipedia.com.

What this means is we can now save bookmarks or favorites to our home computer as we have always done, but now we can save them to social database sites where we and others can access them from any computer. We also usually have the option to make our bookmarks private or public and even limit who is able to view our bookmarks. We can see what other people are bookmarking. We can share and get links to our own personal site or e-commerce site by sharing with others on social bookmarking sites as well.

How to get started

I've outlined the simple steps to setup an account with one of the most popular social bookmarking sites: delicious.com.

To sign up:

1. Go to http://www.delicious.com
2. Click on the Join Now button on the top right of the screen.
3. Fill out the registration form, and then click Register.
4. Delicious will auto-detect your browser and you will be asked to install some buttons. Follow the directions given and select the buttons of your choice.
5. When the installation is complete, close your browser and then re-open it. You should then see the Delicious buttons added to your browser.

Now you can start adding bookmarks.

Have fun and happy bookmarking.

How to Use StumbleUpon? Don't Bury Yourself - Or Your Fellow Bloggers

,

I have been reading a lot of tips on how to promote your blog and one of them includes sharing your posts on StumbleUpon.

Most of them say "share your posts and connect with people". But there is one thing I haven't read in those posts and it can be crucial for the number of visitors StumbleUpon will send you.

There are reasons why you shouldn't submit your posts to SU.

What is StumbleUpon?

For those who don't know, StumbleUpon is a community that allows you to vote on just about anything on the internet. You can vote for photos, videos, blog posts, anything you see in your browser. If you are not a member, I strongly recommend to join StumbleUpon (it is completely free).

I have been using SU for years, before I ever thought of running a blog. I have heard of it as a cool option to share your opinion and I joined. The main thing about SU is voting.

Let's start from the beginning. After you register an account you will need to choose your interests. That is how you will tell SU what you want to see.

You can change the preferences any time and I personally do it a lot.

I would say there are two reasons why you would use SU, to have fun or to promote your business (or both).

To have fun, and this is why the site is called StumbleUpon, you will click the STUMBLE button and it will bring back a site based on your preferences. So you will stumble upon something interesting.

Where is the STUMBLE button?

SU has it's own toolbar that you can download for free. If you are using Firefox, I would strongly recommend StumbleUpon add-on. This add-on has so many settings and you can use it either as a toolbar, menu bar, etc.

You can see the first icon on the toolbar is a Stumble! button. When I press it, SU will pull up a random page based on my preferences. I can like it (thumb up icon) or not (thumb down icon).

The thumb down icon has several options:

  • just pressing the button will send a message to SU "No more like this"
  • there is a little arrow on the right that will open up a short menu with the following options:
    • Not for me
    • Report spam
    • Duplicate content
    • Block website (that you are on)

I personally choose not to vote down on a page just because it wasn't something great. If it is a great photo of a cat but I don't like cats, I will Stumble! again. My personal way of using it is to vote down stuff that I really don't like. If I don't like it, but I don't hate it, I will just stumble away.

But that is only me. And this is where we get to the point.

How to get the most out of StumbleUpon?

I will agree with the most repeated tip, you should connect with people. That way they might vote on your submission because it is more likely they will see it (SU shows friends' submissions when you log in).

You must be active! It seems that SU values votes from active members more than those from a member that doesn't vote much. So if there is an user that has 9.000 favorites (he voted on 9.000 pages) it is more likely that SU will value his opinion more. The pages he voted on, will be shown to more people (I haven't checked this but it seems like it).

This is a good thing to know, when you ask them to vote on your pages. Also, you being active is a great way to earn "respect" from SU.

The most important thing I wanted to tell you is this:

Be careful when you submit your posts or your friends' posts. Don't bury yourself or your fellow bloggers. For two reasons.

When a person starts stumbling using the button in the toolbar, SU will bring results based on the categories of the page and your preference.

If you chose photography as your preference, you will get beautiful photos as a result. And you will most likely vote for it because that is what you expected to see.

But what if your preference is photography and SU pulls up a post about how to add a image to your Wordpress blog? I am thinking thumbs down!

Someone is burying you because that is not what they wanted to see. If they bury your post, SU will see it as less relevant to the category and will show it to less people!

Tip number one: you must choose the category of your submission very carefully. If you are submitting for a fellow blogger, ask him/her what category they want the post to be in. Think as a random user and choose based on what you would like to see in a certain category.

Let's say that your preference is "weblogs". Well, that post might get a vote then, right? But how will it get a vote if it is mediocre. No, again a thumb down.

Tip number two: when you are submitting to SU make sure the posts are top notch. It will hurt you more to get your posts buried than not to have them on SU at all.

Don't forget that not only you can get the thumbs down, but a SU user can choose to click "Block website".
Try stumbling, you will often get same results, especially if you didn't choose many topics of interest. So if you were seeing the same blogs all over the place and you didn't like any of the posts, you would probably block them, so they stop showing.
That is the risk you are running into, when you start submitting all (or most) of your posts to SU.

I love hitting Stumble! and I don't like having some mediocre results showing up.

What to do after reading this post:

  • Start using StumbleUpon, if you are not already
  • choose preferences
  • install the toolbar or the Firefox add-on
  • Stumble! for fun for 15 minutes
  • vote and bury
  • connect with your friends that are on SU
  • submit ONLY your best posts
  • choose the best category when you are submitting

Reddit Tips: Submission Success Secrets

,

Everyone knows that getting more backlinks and traffic is a huge key to success online. There are a variety of different techniques you can use in order to get more traffic, and Reddit is an additional great resource. Reddit is a social bookmarking site that allows you to add your website's URL to be voted up or down by Reddit users. By submitting to Reddit, you'll have a valuable backlink to your website that can make all of the difference in your traffic and your online rankings.

Fortunately, submitting to Reddit is simple. Just sign up for a free account in order to get started. Confirm your registration and collect a list of the URLs you'd like to submit. The following tips will help you be more successful on Reddit.

1. Focus on your title.

Your title is the most important part of your Reddit submission because it will attract attention and encourage people to vote for and visit your site. Even if you've already titled your webpage, don't worry. You can use a new title for your Reddit submission. Long titles have been proven to work better than short and snappy titles, and you should be conversational rather than direct. For example, instead of "3 Tips for More Reddit Traffic" you should try "Wow - try these submission tips for more traffic!" it might sound a little weird and spammy but when it comes to Reddit and other social bookmarking sites, you need to think outside of the box.

2. Use pictures and videos when you can.

For better or for worse, these days people like to view videos and look at pictures more than read long articles. Use interesting videos and pictures in your submissions. Think about ways that you can display your content through video or pictures. In fact, this is a great way to get double mileage out of an idea - create it once in written form for your website and once for Reddit and other submission sites. If you haven't created images or videos yourself, you can use royalty free media to add to your pages and submissions in order to make them more interesting. Try istockphoto for collections of royalty free photos and videos to use.

3. Spread the word on social networks.

Reddit works best when there's a lot of interest in your content to begin with. Once a story starts getting popular on Reddit, it will only grow in interest. You can jumpstart this process by getting people on your social networks to vote up your content. When you make a submission to Reddit, be sure to let your Twitter and Facebook followers know. Ask them to vote up your content as well, and then that will get the ball rolling for Reddit users. In just a short period of time, your content will be popular on Reddit.

Reddit can be another powerful tool in your arsenal for more content and more sales. Use these tips to make sure you're getting the most out of your submissions.

You can easily target as many as 30,000 visitors a day or even more. Sites like Digg, Reddit, Stumbleupon and Delicious are a great way to offer rush to your site.

Paving a path to success is not a tough task. You just need to keep a few things in mind and you are there, reaching the milestones of the destiny. The first thing to remember is to prepare catchy headlines. Although, many a times, we prepare content for the site but we fail to offer good title. This way, good work goes unnoticed. So you must create an attractive title to the article.

After creation of a good title, it is time to have a good description of the article. You must always limit your description to 100-250 words as users will not read more than that. Just the use of headline won't work as you must prepare description of the article in such a way that can attract the users attention.

As the saying goes- First Impression is the last impression, the first para of article must have alluring and unique content. This will coax the visitors to visit your article again and again.

Always make sure that your site has social bookmarking buttons for luring the users to vote as well as bookmark the article for getting free promotion.

Submit your article at the right time. It is a sheer wastage of time if you submit the article during sleeping hours of visitors. This is because the time they wake up, you will fall behind several websites and have to wait in long queue to get your website found by visitors. Thus, you must try various trial and error timings while posting the articles.

Never try to post old and stale news which the readers know beforehand. There must be something new and attracting news so that visitors keep coming to your site time and again.

If you are posting certain facts or figures, then you must always check the relevance of them. Wrong information can put you and your site in trouble.

Before submitting your article to social bookmarking sites, you need to spell check and grammar check before submitting the article. You must also proof read it twice.

What You Have To Know About A Social Bookmarking Service

,

Social bookmarking service is starting to become an in-demand service because social bookmarking is a powerful tool in advertising an internet site. However, dealing with all those social bookmarking websites is very time-consuming and downloading all of the toolbars is madness and that is where the bookmarking service is very useful.

Social bookmarking is a web-based service in which users can create and store links. It is an effective social media tool that has become the most sought after internet marketing service in order to increase the existence of one's website in an attempt to boost the traffic and make a lot more product sales for the internet business. It is an increasingly common approach to identify, categorize, position, and also share Internet resources. Although web browsers have the ability to bookmark pages, those links are tied to that browser/computer. Social bookmarking, however, is tied to a web-based account, which can be publicly or privately accessible. Depending on the viewing properties as well as tags/categorization, these types of bookmarks can be shared and discovered by others. It is a way to share news, websites, and even more with a much wider audience. It also allows for the users to tag the sites with relevant keywords to be able to store them at a particular easily accessible location.

Google and other major search engines have made the decision to go content-centric; the more places you have your articles, the more traffic you yield. Submitting your site manually to social bookmarking sites such as Digg, StumbleUpon.com, Reddit.com, and del.icio.us will ensure a heavier volume of relevant traffic. And also, considered a better substitute for submitting a site on blogs, social bookmarking is a simple, convenient and hassle-free means of making sure that your site is noticed and marketed in the right circle. While these social bookmarking sites offer a fantastic resource for browsing, they also offer an opportunity to generate one-way backlinks. A number of these websites have a high Page Rank (PR) - this means they carry more authority and, therefore, more weight is handed down through the backlink to your site. All of these is invaluable in helping your site rise to the top of Google along with other search engines.

Social bookmarking paves the way to brand new means of arranging information and categorizing sources. The maker of a bookmark assigns tags to each resource, providing a user-directed, "amateur" way of classifying information. Because these services indicate who made each bookmark and provide access to that individual's other bookmarked sources, users can easily make social relationships with other people engaged in just about any topic. Users could also see how many people have utilized a tag and search for all resources which have been assigned that tag. In this way, the community of users as time passes will create a unique structure of keywords to the resources - something that has come to be known as a "folksonomy".

With social bookmarking service, not only can you store your favorite sites and send them to friends and family, but you could also check out what other individuals have found fascinating enough to tag. Most sites allow you to browse through the items based on most widely used, recently added, or belonging to a certain category for example shopping, technology, politics, blogging, news, sports, and so on.

Good Information On Social Bookmarking: Ranking On Multiple Keywords

,

When you are submitting sites on social bookmarking sites, you will need to know that you are submitting your sites in these directories for the sake of ranking relatively high in the search engines. However, you don't want to just submit these sites on one keyword phrase, but multiple keywords. What I mean by this is that you can get your submission to show up on other keywords on the same keyword title. It's all about what you are writing in the Meta tags and in the description.

What happens many times is people are either skipping the description section or they are just writing the beginning of an article that you wrote somewhere else. Instead of doing that, you can just write a small description with other keywords attached to it. Of course you have to make it fit in with your submission so that you don't spam.

I will give you an example of what I am talking about. If you are submitting a site about water balloons, and you have separate keywords listed as "water balloons for kids" "camouflage water balloons" "girls and water balloons." Instead of just trying to submit them in a separate format, you can place create a small description that says, "Water balloon fights are always fun to play with, especially for little boys and girls and big kids even. My favorite ammunition are camouflage water balloons. It brings the soldier out of me." This is how you will be able to rank high effectively in the search engines utilizing the keywords that you have for your site. Instead of thinking linear with these words, you should use your creativity and find out how to organize these keywords to fit with one another.

Doing this is a skill and takes some time to master, but when you do, you will be able to supply good information online through bookmarking sites. This is also a great SEO technique for Google because most bookmarking sites are favored by Google.
