The benefits of social bookmarking

Sunday, November 18th, 2007 The benefits of social bookmarking

Social bookmarking websites are becoming more and more popular. Basically they allow you to save bookmarks online and Tag/Categorize them with keywords instead of saving them as bookmarks in the favorites list of your browser.My favorite Social Bookmark is SUStumble Upon you can access it at www.stumbleupon.com and its also an add-on to the browser Mozilla foxfire. It works like a search engine you can see sites other users have rated.
I have compiled a list of Social Bookmarking websites and inserted the logo links into the bottom this post and all the other posts in my news section. Visit the sites and if you would like create an account on one. Once you have an account you can bookmark things that you find interesting and useful. By doing so you are becoming part of a network of folks that like search engines pick out useful places on the web. Once you’ve done that you intermittently, (or aggressively), add useful and interesting items, (perhaps also from your own content), that could use additional exposure.

Make an honest effort to contribute USEFUL information and links. This is all about sharing and exposure. Done properly, you can be as aggressive as you want to be about sharing information. You can share your blog(s), links to your informational/resource sites etc. Think about the fact that when you share links to other’s resources, you’re also effectively promoting their content as well.

Happy Bookmarking
