Social Bookmark Strategies for Rookies

Social bookmark sites like Delicious and StumbleUpon are an easy way to locate and store great websites. Unlike an everyday BM stored only on your own computers browser, a social BM is shared with the BMcommunity, allowing others to see what 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 in the habit of BM things in 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, making it easy and convenient to BM everything publicly.

2. Use a good title. Remember, a SBM isn't only for you personally, others will see all your bookmarks and visit the same sites. Be sure that your description is accurate, and do not use abbreviations or jargon, make it clear and precise. - Delicious

3. Utilize a good description. As above, inform you and understandable for others.

4. Make use of tags. Tags assist you to, and others, know very well what your website is approximately. 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 folks have when bookmarking their particular sites as a way that will get no-cost traffic. There's nothing wrong with this particular, however if you allow a bookmark for each post in your site it will be monotonous for others and they're going to stop checking all your bookmarks. - Delicious

6. Whether it's not good to others, don't bookmark it. Sometimes you come across sites that are meaningful to you, but of little value to other people. Bookmark these privately therefore the quality of one's social bookmarks stays high.

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