Social Bookmark Methods for Rookies

Social bookmark sites like Delicious and StumbleUpon are a fun way to locate and store great websites. Unlike a normal BM stored only in your computers browser, a social BM is shared with the BMcommunity, allowing others to determine everything you BM, and the other way around. Here are a few do's and don'ts of SBM.

1. Use SBM over private bookmarks. You are probably within the habit of BM things inside your browser, which means this would have been a new habit. But many of the social bookmark sites have plugins you are able to install inside your browser, which makes it easy and convenient to BM everything publicly.

2. Make use of a good title. Remember, a SBM is not only for you personally, others might find your bookmarks and go to the same sites. Be sure that your description is accurate, , nor use abbreviations or jargon, make it clear and precise. - Delicious

3. Make use of a good description. As above, make it clear and understandable for other people.

4. Make good use of tags. Tags help you, yet others, understand what your website is about. Something like "cool site" is meaningless. Be very accurate and will include details within your tags.

5. Don't bookmark multiple page in the domain. This is a temptation individuals have when bookmarking their own sites as a method that will get free traffic. You'll find nothing wrong with this particular, if however you allow a bookmark for every post on your own site it'll be monotonous for some individuals and they will stop checking your bookmarks. - Delicious

6. If it's of no use to other people, don't bookmark it. Sometimes you find sites that are meaningful for you, but of little value to others. Bookmark these privately and so the quality of your social bookmarks stays high.

Should you follow these rules and bookmark consistently you can both give, and get plenty of value from social bookmark creating. - Delicious
