Using Social Bookmarking Sites To Get Better Traffic

By Phil Guye


Getting traffic is important for every single website in every single niche. Without good traffic, all of the work you've put in to your site will have been in vain. While there are a whole lot of ways you can generate traffic, social bookmarking is one of the most unique methods for sending targeted eyeballs to a website. In the last couple of years, social media has become quite prominent thanks to its ability to help websites gain some real exposure. If you have been attempting to leverage social bookmarking to send more traffic to your site but you haven't been able to get to the level you want, you need to keep reading.

Get Controversial: The Internet is somewhere that helps controversy spread incredibly quickly since the medium is so easy to use. You can use such controversies for your own advantage by submitting something controversial to these social bookmarking sites. This makes you stand out of the crowd and sets you apart from the rest. People love going through controversies and they don't mind sharing them. This can be gotten by you by talking about current events and sharing your strongest opinions. This is more about giving the community what it wants.

Create a Great Profile: All social bookmarking sites allow you to build profiles for yourself. If you really want social bookmarking to work for you in terms both of traffic and popularity, make sure your profile is customized so that other people can find your profile and make a connection with you. There's no need to do any fancy stuff, simply focus on creating an informative profile that makes it easier for people to connect with you--nobody can connect with a faceless entity!

Use a Profile Picture: You'll quickly learn, when using sites like Reddit and Digg, that other users often identify people by their profile pictures so make sure the picture you use is an eye catching one. Even though your profile picture may not seem to be a big deal, it does make a difference. It helps to create a better and more believable profile. No matter what type of marketing initiative you take, you need to concentrate on getting the best reaction possible from the users. Boring is the opposite of interesting and that is why it doesn't help sell things. Submit to Many Sites: Do not expect magic to happen by submitting one bookmark to one site. You need to submit to as many major social bookmarking sites as possible and do it often. These sites are highly trafficked and very popular and it just makes sense to get them to work for you. One of the reasons that people aren't able to get the traffic they want from social bookmarking is because they don't put forth a regular effort.

In summary, from this article we can see just how important social bookmarking can be for anyone who wants to increase traffic levels for his or her website.
