| − | [http://socialbookmarkn.jigsy.com/ Social Bookmark] - Social bookmarking is the practice of posting links to articles and webpages to various "link aggregator" or social bookmark sites, including Digg, Stumbleupon and so on. Social bookmarking sites rise and fall in popularity fairly quickly, but they generally have a couple of common features:
| + | Content removed |
| − | | |
| − | 1. Users can submit links which other users can browse, providing a sensible way to expose your content.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. Links get into large pages of lists, that are normally very easy to navigate, and are generally usually divided up into a "main page" of the best links of the day, and various sub-sections which help one to get exposure in relevant circles.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. Links normally can be "voted on" to determine which links get more airtime on the front page of various sections. The more votes your links get, the harder traffic they get.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 4. Some sites, like Digg, attach a weighting to certain actions and users, so an individual who submits popular links will have a vote that carries excess fat.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 5. Most social bookmark submitting site users are fairly jaded when it comes to the internet, and will ignore things that aren't interesting, funny, or very entertaining. This is simply not a place for your boring press announcements.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 6. Most bookmarking sites usually have some kind of "social" element for them, allowing users to generate profiles, have a friends listing of other users, etc., with the hope of getting users to talk about content between themselves.

I'm going to use Reddit and Digg as my main examples, however that Reddit itself takes a great deal of familiarity with its culture until you are able to submit links that anybody even clicks.

| − | | |
| − | Choose your niche
| |
| − | | |
| − | Submitting articles on growing bonsais to the front page of Reddit won't do you any good - you'll get 30 visitors maybe, none of whom will buy your products. But submitting it to /r/bonsai, although it only has around 1,100 readers, will probably garner you more attention from interested people.

| − | Ironically, submitting to /r/trees could have much less of an effect, because /r/trees is committed to marijuana culture. The lesson the following is: know your subreddits.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Write a catchy title, and use an image
| |
| − | | |
| − | Standard newspaper/advert headline formats do not work too well on the web, because everyone has become immune to them. Instead you should think of a clever title that interests people enough to find out more about what you're writing, or otherwise promise pictures of cats.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Most bookmarking sites include a thumbnail from the page you're linking to, or one you provide. Take the trouble to do this - it generates greater click throughs.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Keep at it, and make your links an easy task to share
| |

| − | [http://socialbookmarkn.webnode.com/ Social Bookmark] - Social bookmarking is about persistence, so if nobody clicks your first link, make another article, come up with a more clever title and attempt again. Put a social bookmark submitting widget on your website or blog, and encourage people to talk about your articles. If you've submitted them already, and they've accounts, it only takes another to click an "upvote" or "like" button.

| − | Regardless of anything else, having links to all or any of your articles on six social bookmarking sites is great for SEO.
