1. Social bookmarking can be described simply as a method
for internet users to organize, store and manage their
favorite websites. Usually, when you come across a
website that has interesting information but you are
unable to read through all of it right then, you bookmark
the website in your browser and save it, so that you can
visit the URL again later. However, with social
bookmarking, you can bookmark the website to the web
and visit it later, or even share it with your friends. It is as
simple as sending an email to a friend with a link to a
website that you think they might be interested in looking
at; by doing that, you have taken part in social
bookmarking.

2. With social bookmarking, you can easily trace interesting
websites that you would love to visit regularly, and also
check out websites that other web users have found
fascinating. Most social bookmarking sites allow users to
browse through the tagged sites based on
popularity, latest time updated and even according to
categories such as shopping, beauty etc. it is even possible
to browse through what other people have tagged by
keying in the information you are looking for in the search
tool. In fact, social bookmarking sites are fast becoming
popular as search engines.

3. This is why social bookmarking is such a potent marketing
tool for your website. Your website could be viewed by as
many as 50% more than your usual traffic everyday if it is
featured in social bookmarking sites. It is also a popular
and efficient SEO (search engine optimization) tool, giving
your site the much needed leverage and visibility that will
take it to the top of the search engine stats. All you need
to do to get started is set up an account in any
bookmarking site. LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Digg,
StumbleUpon and Tumbler are all great avenues to start
with. Once your account is set up, spend a few hours every
day commenting, updating your status and basically
creating a buzz on your account. Ensure that your social
media profiles are all linked to your website, blog and
even email list, so that everyone you communicate with

4. If you keep this up, lots of people, even those who are not
really your friends, will start to tag your website or
blog, and even share it with friends who will share it with
their friends, and so on. The backlinks you'll get through
your social media profiles will also be great for boosting
your visibility on the search engine. Every business person
wants their site to be so visible that if anyone searches
their business name, they would find it among the top
three to ten websites listed in the first page of the search
results.

5. Here is the simpler version of all this information: the
more bookmarks users give your website or blog, the
higher ratings it receives in search engines. This is
primarily because a bookmarked site is way easier to find
than one that has to be searched for. So find the social
bookmarking tool that works for you and invest your time
in it; you'll soon make your website a household name
among ardent internet users.
