What is Social Bookmarking? You have probably heard a lot about social bookmarking recently. As a matter of fact, you can spend thousands of dollars right now just to find out what it's all about. Well, not here. I am giving you this information.I did the research and found this to be a super way to generate more traffic to your website. The best news is, it's 100% FREE.

It's a public list of your favorites. Not all your favorites, just the favorites you want to share with others. When you list a site in your bookmark list, anyone looking for that same type of information can do a search at the bookmark site and find the sites that you have bookmarked. It is like a search engine without all the trash.

The more people who bookmark a site, the more popular it becomes. It's that simple. As an example, lets say you are selling widgets for a really great price. You bookmark your home page on many public bookmarking sites. When someone is looking for a widget, they do a search at the bookmarking site and your bookmark comes up. They go look at your site and decide your prices are so awesome, they will come back later when they need another widget. So they add your website to their bookmarking list.

When someone goes to one of these sites and types widgets into the search box, your site listing will come up in the search. If many people have bookmarked your site, you will be listed high in the search results. It's kind of like a voting system. If you site is good enough to bookmark, other people will want to see what all the fuss is about. Unlike search engines where all you have to do is good seo, the sites you will find in the Social Bookmarking sites are quality sites that other people enjoyed enough to save. You don't really have to have a good site to get listed in the search engines.

Do a search for social bookmarking, and you will see many websites will come up. Go to each website and register for an account. It's free! Once you have your bookmarking accounts set up, start listing your websites. Make sure you add proper tags to your listing. Tags are the same as keywords with a added twist. These websites will tell you what the most popular searches are on their website. You just select relevant tags that will work with your website or page.

Add a link to your site that will lead back to the bookmarking site that has your page bookmarked. Ask your visitors to bookmark your site on the social bookmarking site. You will want to offer a different bookmarking site on each page. Why? So you can get as many bookmarks on as many sites as possible. Use the same information in the example above but change the social bookmarking site you are promoting.

One final reminder. Please do not spam the bookmarking sites. Make sure what you are listing is relevant and helpful. You don't want to bring traffic to a page that has nothing but links, because you will probably get banned from this bookmarking site. Only bookmark your web pages that have actual content of value. Ask yourself if you would truly add this page to your own personal favorites list? If your answer is no then don't list it.
