Getting Traffic with Social Bookmarking

Well if you haven't heard about social bookmarking and using it to get targeted website traffic, plus getting your site indexed faster, then you may want to learn more about it.

I tried social bookmarking about 2 months ago to see if I could increase traffic to my website. And I was surprised that after a few hours I started to see more traffic. Now the increase lasted for about 3 weeks, then slowly decreased to the amount of traffic I had before bookmarking the site.

Now the downside is (depending on how many accounts you sign up for) it takes time to set-up. Then posting to each of the accounts will take more time unless you use a site like onlywire etc.

Now the upside is:

*your site is possibly indexed faster
*you are building one-way links back to your site
*if other's pick up your links then it may help with PR
*burst of targeted traffic to your site
and more...

So is social bookmarking going to help you get more web traffic? Yes for a time, but like any else you will have to work at it. Make social friends, pass on your links and keep working to promote your site.

Good luck!!!
