Social Bookmarking

Create backlinks from social bookmark websites

Social bookmarking is a method of linking in SEO to gain back links. In basic terms, a bookmark of the client’s web page containing a link and a summary of the client’s products or services is placed on a variety of relevant and themed websites. These websites are those that require membership and allow people to share their bookmarks together creating a link sharing environment.

The best time to use social bookmarking is when a page is nearly at its target within the rankings. This is because with SB, it’s more like a quick and strong boost to the rankings. For example, if a page is at the top of page 2, then social bookmarking the page can give it that boost on to page one. It must be noted that social bookmarking links aren’t long term, but they can be implemented with other techniques to cement the rankings gained from SB.
