Since your bookmarks are in online, you can easily share them with your friends and it is a great way to promote your business. It is a much cheaper alternative for traditional media advertising. Traditional media advertising can costs thousands of dollars. In this process you can not only save your favorite websites and send them to your friends, but you can also look at what other people have found interesting enough to tag. Most of the social bookmarking sites may let you to browse through the items based on most popular, recently added, or belonging to a certain category like shopping, technology, politics, blogging, news, sports, etc. You can easily find, what people have bookmarked by typing in what you are looking for in the search tool. At times, the social bookmarking sites are being used as intelligent search engines.


Many good articles did not receive the attention it deserves because of the lousy headlines. The headlines are not interesting so people are not motivated to click the link. The headline is the first thing that the user sees while browsing for information on the site. If you don’t write a good headline, it is very difficult for your posts to reach the first page of the social bookmarking site. You should not use the original headline for the headline that is used in the social bookmarking submission. You can use humorous news to attract attention. Off beat news can also generate a lot of traffic. You can also create tutorials to attract the attention of the visitors. There are many types of tutorials that you can create. You should create tutorials based in your own niche. For example, if you are promoting a web design blog, you can create a unique design by using Photoshop and share it with other people on the social bookmarking site.


The headline plays an important role in attracting the attention of the visitors. However, a meaningful description is also very important. The description must provoke the visitors to visit the links. You are never to use lies to deceive the visitor into visiting your site. For example, if you are selling acai berry, you may write “Eating acai berry will help you to lose hundreds of pounds in one week”. Visitors know how to differentiate between a myth and fact so using lie. Instead, you must be honest to the visitors so that they will put their trust in you.


If you own a lot of websites, it will take a long time to submit to all the social bookmarking sites. If you want to save time, you can outsource the social bookmarking submission to a SEO company. The SEO company will social bookmark your site to the most popular social media sites. If you hire a social bookmarking service, you will be required to provide a few information including title, description, keywords and URL. 


If you don’t want to write the title and description, you can hire the SEO company to help you write them. The SEO company should provide a detailed report. If you are ordering a monthly subscription, the SEO company must provide a monthly progress report. The monthly progress report will show improvement of your site’s ranking in the search engine before and after the social bookmarking submission. You should hire SEO company that can complete the social bookmarking submission within the allotted time. The final social bookmarking report should be sent to you within the turnaround time.
