Thread: Social bookmarking and Traffic

After seeing several posts on forums, I bookmarked my websites to social bookmarking websites, and could notice increase in traffic for many days. It also helped me in conversions.

I had hired a person to do the job of submission, and the amount spent on this was really worth.

Now I wish to bookmark the same websites again. Are there any ways to submit the same websites to those social bookmarking websites and get the traffic and conversions again and again? Are there any suggestions to do this?

I plan to create blogs and display products there. Then I will be able to submit those blogs to these social bookmarking websites. Will this method help?

In my opinion social bookmarking websites only provide you with direct click through traffic and will not help your site rank better in google search as they apply a nofollow tag on all outgoing links ... .. . digg, del icio etc. I would concentrate on building good links from reputed sites with good page rank pages.

Yes book marking helps but its a very labour intensive and expensive way of getting very little trafic. If you want some steady traffic from generic search engines go for high value links.

But, it's very difficult to find reputed websites with good PR so as to post our links. I did this bookmarking for $30 for 100 websites. The returns from this was not bad at that time. The traffic had increased which helped me. Now I am planning to create more blogs with different contents and submit these blogs to social bookmarking websites one by one. I hope that this may help !
