Discover The Right Way To Get Visitors From Social Bookmarking Sites

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

With social bookmarking you will be able to funnel large amounts of targeted traffic to your site or blog. People are intrigued when they see your vote on social sites like Digg or Reddit. It makes them want to visit your site to see what you have to offer and to learn how you may be able to help them. You can look at bookmarking sites as another form of search engines where people gather to look for specific types of information. The huge difference between Google and social bookmarking sites is that the bookmarking sites are controlled by the users, not search engine bots. The work based on feedback: a person reads an article, votes for it and shares it with others if they find it is useful. This is an ongoing process. Therefore, social sites rely on the community to determine what is quality information and what is simply a waste. So when you use social bookmarking for your own marketing purposes, you need to be careful that you provide information that people will find interesting.

First and foremost, your bookmark’s title doesn’t need to match your article’s title. It’s just not necessary. As a matter of fact, it may be more useful if you make your bookmarks title more unique and enticing, unless your website has an awesome title. The title of the bookmark is the first thing people see and will be the most important factor in whether or not users check it out. You need a title that will attract people attention enough that they want to go to your site and see what you have to offer. Your title will be one of thousands, so it is important to make it stand out as unique. In addition, it is advisable that you provide an intriguing description for your bookmark. The description for your bookmark should be utilized to intensify the readers curiosity and it should contain the same “interesting streak” as your title. It is important that you do not give a complete summary in your description. Only give enough information that people feel they “need” to read more. This strategy can work for driving traffic to not only articles but also to videos or blog posts. If you are trying to get traffic to your blog, it is vital that you do not bookmark the homepage of your blog. Don’t simply bookmark the main domain of your blog. By doing this, you are using up your one bookmark. This makes it vary hard to know what the targeted visitors took the time to read. You should rather try to bookmark the exact post you want to drive traffic to. This will also aid you in understanding which posts on your blog are driving in traffic and what you’re readers are interested in. You can use it to monitor what the people want. So whether you’re bookmarking a blog post or a video, make certain to use the url for the post or video and not your root domain.

There are literally thousands of different social bookmarking sites on the web. However, most of these will fail to give you any results, because they are not very good and are not very search engine friendly. What is the difference between these various social bookmarking sites? Is it hard to identify one? You can Google it and see how many results you get, the higher, the better. You may also want to see if there are many blogs about it or if it is the center of conversations. Remember not to look only for quantity, you must find quality. How much benefit you’ll get out of this technique will largely depend on the quality of your bookmarks, rather than how many bookmarks you have. It is when marketers simply try to get a lot of bookmarks that they fail to earn a lot of profits. Make sure you do the research and work that is required to make this strategy work for you, and soon your site will be well on its way to success.

There are many different tools to automate the social bookmarking process. I have used different tools to automate social booking marking process for my site Magic Article Rewriter

SEO - How to know if - to Link or not o Link

Thursday, August 20th, 2009
by Trevor Weir

So, you are thinking about that email request. The one you got last week about giving someone a reciprocal link. You don’t know this person from adam, but there you are trying to make the best decision for your own website.

Most of us seo afficionados will know what this phrase means, but for the less geeky it simply means getting links from other sites to your own.

In the past, this was done by exchanging links between sites, and initially search engines had no problem with this but the search engines soon began to devalue these reciprocal efforts due to not just the potential for spam but because actual REAL link spam that was taking place in this area.

Spam is known to many of us as that cheap meat in a can, but in internet lingo its also known as the junk email that attempts to get commercial gain.

So for example, too many enterprising spammers send out unsolicited commercial spam email to millions of unsuspecting users. Some made hundreds of real but content-less webpages/sites with links back to their own - not the phrase “their own” - commercial products - hence the need for objective PageRank and PageTrust. In those early days, the search engines were not looking at important minutia such as which reciprocal links were owned by the same person or which chain of anchored links were on the same machine. In order to slow down spammers, this data is collected and analyzed as it’s rather important for determining exactly who the spammers are.

Perhaps one of the most important parts of the backlinking process is which keywords one uses - traditionally, this has been where most linking efforts have failed.

Why? Because unless you created the links yourself, you can’t determine how someone else will link to your site. This is oddly enough - at odds - with what most seo professionals will tell you about how you should control the text or anchor text in the documents that link back to you.

Also, since as a casual reader, you are not likely to be an expert on niche market keywords, one is going to most logically try to pick the keywords having the most traffic. Is this a mistake? A brand new website, even after being indexed by Google or most search engines, typically has no chance at ranking on its chosen keywords for many months if not years.

So, possibly a waste of time, right?

The potential problems don’t stop there. The page rank of new articles is N/A or after indexing, typically Zero where 0 is worst and 10 is the best. Although some may argue this while a new page with N/A or O as its rank can have a freshness quotient that can help it positively, in most search engines, this zero which is evidence of lack of credibility will definitely not work in its favor.

Exceptions to this - if the newly created page is sitting on a highly popular Web 2 social network property like ebay or myspace, bebo or scribd to name a few then it won’t be penalized as much just because its current pagerank or credibility level appears to be a zero.

We suspect these exceptions work because, it is thought that new pages on foundation sites such as those with a credibility level of 5 or above, inherently acquire some of the PageRank or PageTrust of the site that they rest on.

Technical babble galore - the question really is - So, what’s a girl to do?

Google would say, go back to fundamentals, content and be innovative. They would recommend strongly that you even create “link-bait” that will cause others to want to link to you.I like both this phrase and the thought if you understand in the faintest what link-bait is. Ignoring Google’s advice is always done at your own peril, however I urge you to examine the decision to get involved in creating link-bait more deeply. Do you really have 3-6 months that it takes to consistently create new articles almost daily, and to put out such a ferocious amount of intensely likable content in one spot that would cause people to socially bookmark that page on your site - If the answer is no then you understand why most of us will never ever intentionally create link-bait.

There has to be ways around this. What should one do?
