How To Promote Your Site On Social Bookmarking Sites
by Salim Benhouhou IT Support There is one thing that all of us are working for: more traffic! We try to create good content on our site, create informative articles and useful blog posts and would like more people to see them. We want traffic, we want people read what we have put so much work in to. One way to get that traffic is by promoting our content on social bookmarking sites, but it only works if you do it correctly. Below are some useful tips to help you generate more visitors from social bookmarking sites.- Excellent content. This is probably the most important point. The
better your content is, the more likely it is that users will share
your content on social bookmarking sites.
- Choose an engaging title. Less people will click and read your
article if the title is boring. Try to think of an interesting title
that tells people how they will benefit from reading your article.
- Pick relevant keywords. If you want your article to be found
it's crucial to first know what people are searching for. Good keywords
will make sure that your intended audience finds your content more
easily.
- Reinforce the title with a descriptive summary. Most social
networking sites lets you add a short summary or description of the
link. Use this description to get people to actually click the link
after the title has caught their attention.
- Be an active user. Become friends with the users on social
bookmarking sites and build a relationship with them. If you are an
active user your friends can help you promote your links by voting and
commenting on them.
- Add social bookmarking icons to your site. Adding icons at the
bottom of every post to the most common social bookmarking sites makes
it a lot easier for people to share your article with others.
- Add more links in your content. You could, for example, put links on the bottom of your blog posts to other related posts on your blog. This will increase the traffic to your site and make sure that users stay on your blog for a longer period of time.

Paula, you are SO correct about that! I love to post recipes instead of marketing and sales stuff. Seems like an overload of how to articles on marketing and sales. I get a kick out of reading about your weekend fun or what a great dinner you made last night also. Apr 23rd 2011 17:51 |
Very good article. There is one tip I would like to add. I sometimes post articles that have nothing to do with marketing or selling. They are anecdotes or my thoughts about certain issues. I get quite good response on those. And new connections. Posting something personal helps to show the person you are behind the picture on the social marketing wall.
