Bookmarking Free Traffic Tactic
I was tired and the fish were not biting, but I could not drag me away empty-handed. A little 'further down the bank of the river was another fisherman who ran one every twenty minutes or so. What was he doing that I was not? He should use better bait. Maybe it happened to land on the perfect fishing hole with a pack of hungry fish turning on his pole.
Once I started feeling start to doze, I knew it was time and reluctantly gave the fact that there would be no more fish for me that day. I packed my things and before leaving, I went to talk to the gentleman who was clearly out fishing me that day.
I was surprised by what I saw. He was using five fishing rods and, therefore, had five times more hooks in the water with me. This kept him busy. I had been waiting for a relaxing day of fishing, while he was going to fish.
Approaching online marketing should not be different. You can choose to languish in the warm sun, or go out there and catch some fish.
Social bookmarking can be a great way to get those additional hooks in the water. Many people have heard of sites like Digg, Stumble Upon, Delicious, etc., but most people do not use them to their full potential. Bookmarking can establish greater authority for a site Googly eyes of search engines.
Launch a link on these sites does little good to be alone. It takes five votes for a bookmark to reach the status of authority. This means getting your site or article, video, whatever, bookmark bookmarking site on the same five different accounts. This is where friends come into play. Take the other to your favorites and you have more authority than a similar site that was once bookmark, which is actually more competition.
Have you ever wondered why some videos on YouTube to get higher rankings than others who have won more points of view? The answer is often the number of backward for that video. Each time you embed your video on a website, create a hyperlink to the source of that video (YouTube) giving it more power. You are probably limited the number of places that you can embed your video unless you have dozens of websites. In this case, bookmarking with friends is the best thing....
