Choosing the best Social Bookmarking sites
It can be tricky deciding how to choose your Social Bookmarking websites, and hard to know which are the best ones. You may wonder whether your subject matter is appropriate, what sort of audience they attract, or whether your bookmark will leave a dofollow link (see our blogs on how to get dofollow links and the latest on nofollows).
But confusion aside, social bookmarking sites are a key part of the Social Media and SEO mix – once you’ve decided which ones to use, bookmarking is an incredibly way of increasing exposure and traffic. It’s also important to add some bookmarking widgets to your blog, to encourage others to recommend it – see our hands-on Training for Social Media, Training for SEO and Training for Blogging courses to learn more about this.
