Social Bookmarking could help your site gain traffic but it also could decrease your site’s bounce rate at the same time. That’s what I get when my site receive visits from Stumble Upon and Twitter.

I think social bookmarking is not easy as you may think because there are tons of users those always spread lots of information on the Internet. Making your brand, I think, is the first step to let social bookmarking becomes more effective.

The only social bookmarking site that has given me good traffic is SU, but again, the bounce rate is a bit high and th average time on site is less than the other sources. So I am not happy with it.

Me too Sourav.
Traffic come from social bookmarking (SU) will get bounce rate high. But traffic come from digg and delicious will get bounce rate low.
Try get traffic come from them and you will happy

I am just learning about social bookmarking so this article is very helpful for me. I get traffic from Twitter and StumbleUpon but as you say with stumbles the bounce rate can be high.
Just learning about Facebook as I have mainly been concentrating on Twitter as I seem to be interacting better on there.

Digg and Facebook do wonders :)

Social bookmarking not only help you to improve traffic but also ranking. Once you have good ranking in search engine it starts flowing organic traffic.

You have explained the process so nicely. Thanks for the good post but I wonder why you did not refer any of the social bookarmaking services?

StumbleUpon especially as a social bookmarking service can build some long-term traffic. Granted, it tends to have a high bounce rate but it can really help with getting some viewers.

I have to agree with Giang Chau. If you try to link your site on social bookmarking website that they do not know or does not contain anything useful, chances are, you will see them just bouncing off your site.

Social bookmarking sites are definitely not to be ignored. First for the direct traffic and then more importantly for the SEO side. Although I can’t really say that the traffic I’m getting from those kind of websites is huge, it is still a good addition. On the other hand they are great choice for personal use to bookmark interesting sites etc. Definitely better than bookmarking on the browser itself.

I agree social bookmarking is not to be overlooked, and depending on the popularity of the bookmarking site will affect your own traffic levels naturally, and yes Digg/Stumble can be really good sources for driving more traffic, but as of late I havent had much success with them. :(

I am new to this thing but I just feel that facebook and twitter seem to be the default choices of people in order to share great content. Not one person in my circle is active in social bookmarking sites. I really wonder though why that is.

I thank you for this post about social boorkmarking. Before I got stumbled on your article, I had no idea how social bookmarking would do a great help for my blog. Now that I have a little knowledge about this, I will continue using my digg account to bookmark my articles, either do it privately or share to the world. Thanks Hieu!..

You need to put a lot of time in social bookmarking communities to get followers, for me only 4 have been working all this time and they are stumble, digg, twitter and facebook. For others, it works only if you have decent followers.

Great article. Probably, even if you’re a beginner in Internet marketing and haven’t had much experience, you should know about social media and how it’s growing nowadays. Becoming a relevant part of the social community and sharing good sites that will interest people is a good idea. In social bookmarking, It is necessary that you do more than just marketing your site. You have to do more than simply bookmark your own content. You also have to bookmark others that are of good quality. Social bookmarking can be very useful in your marketing campaigns if you use it right.

As SEO requires time, and that’s why social bookmarking/networking is the best way for new blogs to get traffic, I just read above that bounce rate increase, but I think it depends on the content. If you have a valuable content nothing can force them to leave the blog.
