Social Bookmarking

Social bookmarking is a tool to help spread ideas, news, updates, etc. about your site or some other site you found.

Why is Social Bookmarking Important for SEO?

If you're a webmaster and just launched your very first site online, you must work hard in terms of marketing your site and trying to "pull" people to your site. Without great backlinks, etc. your visibility on the net is slim to none. Instead of trying to "pull" people to your site, you should "push" your information out. By sending news and updates to authoritative social bookmarking sites, you're:

1. Sending a link to your site from a site that already has traffic built up.
   
   
2. Gaining more visibility for your site.
   
   
3. You're adding valuable information to the internet, which in turn makes your site reputable.
