Increasing Web Site Traffic

Internet marketing guys have been using social bookmarking as a way to increase web site traffic and page rank for awhile now. It is getting more popular everyday as IM is building up to a total saturation point. There probably isn’t a cheaper way (FREE) for increasing web site traffic than social bookmarking.

Social bookmarking at its inception and still today is promoted as a way to save your favorite internet material such as websites, blog posts, and videos in a way that you can conveniently access them at anytime much like the favorites folder in your browser. The only difference is that when you bookmark an item on these sites it is public and anyone can see them.

Social Bookmarking benefits the IM people by providing a way that they can create backlinks to their own sites simply by bookmarking their own content. When they bookmark their own content they are creating a one way backlink directly to their site, blog, or video. Some social sites have caught on to this and are making their sites NoFollow sites which basically kills the backlink. Not all social bookmarking sites have done this so if you plan on using this strategy to add backlinks for increased web traffic just be sure to research the site.
