How to get Traffic from Social Bookmarking sites???

Social bookmarking sites are very useful to drive traffic to your blog or sites. There are so many do follow social bookmarking sites which can bring a lot of traffic to your site. Some of the good social bookmarking sites are stumbleupon.com, delicious.com, digg.com, reddit.com etc. You just need to submit your blog or sites story on these sites. I have been successful with digg.com, stumbleupon.com and delicious.com.

These are few example. There are numbers of social bookmarking sites available which can drive you good traffic. You need to follow some of the golden run that are as below:

1.Pay attention to your Headlines : Write a cathy headlines. Your headline should be attractive and of users interest. Headlines are first thing visitors see and if they find it of their interest then only clink on it.

2.Write a meaningful & short description: The description should be provocative. Because it draws more attention. Never use lies and false facts to provoke interest. Because if they find it false then will instantly leave out from your page and it will increase your bounce rate.

3.Have a great first paragraph: Your first paragraph should be more interesting and emphasizing. don't let a bad first paragraph make them leave your site.

4.Content is king: your content should be fresh, attractive and true. Content is a king. If your content is just trash then you might cheat users once but don't count on repetitive visits

5.Make it easy for others to vote / bookmark your site: Make links of some good bookmarking sites below your post or content so that other people can bookmark it. You can put a bookmarking button at the end of the article, so if users like your content, they can easily post it.

6.Know when to submit: The time of submission may play a crucial role for attempts to get on first page. Many people say that they get more traffic around 3 p.m. So Bookmark your site around this time. At this time most of the people around the world surf the net.

7.Submit to the right category: Always submit your story in right category. It will help it get more popular. Submitting in different category is not useful because the people who is looking for something else is not going to click and read about your site.

8.Build on top Profile: Be a regular, old and respected user of social bookmarking site. The more your profile bel older the more your content will be give priorities. But you should be active and regular user. Many social bookmarking sites frown when users submit their own content because this feels like self-promotion.

9.Cooperate with other social bookmarkers: Vote and like for others contents. It helps to come on first position. Many stories make it to the front page not only because they are great but because they are backed up by your network of friends.

10. Submit in English: Always submit your bookmark in english. Because english is more readable language in world. Other languages like chinese, Polish, Fresh, Italian, German are also readable and spoken by small number of people. If you have to submit in Regional then translate the Title at least in english. most of the social bookmarking sites submitting anything in a language different from English is not recommendable.

11.Never submit old news: Do not submit old news. As it will not help you to become a respected user. Moreover, it will not help you to come on top.
12.Check your facts: Always write true contents of your site. If you do not submit true stories then you might also receive negative votes for your story, so if you want to avoid this, check you facts .

13.Check you spelling before Submitting: Always check the spelling of bookmarks before submitting. You can use MS. Word Grammar and Spelling Check. Some sites do not allow to edit your posts later, so if you misspell the title, the URL, or a keyword, it will stay this way forever.

14.Not all topics do well: Writing stories and submitting to it in Bookmarking sites is good. But if your story is not on popular topic then it is not going to bring more traffic.

15.Write Related Articles / Popular Articles: Write related and popular articles. Make the links on your articles so that you can keep visitor longer on your site. Besides, many users come just following the link to your article, have a look at it and then they are gone. If there will be some more links then they can stay on your site a little bit more.

16.Respond to comments on your stories: If your article gets comments, you must be proud. Always respond to commends on your stories and even better – post comments on other stories you find interesting. This is a way to make friends and to create a top-profile.

17.The snowball effect: An additional benefit of the snowball effect is that if your posting is interesting and people start blogging about it, you can get tons of backlinks from their blogs. This happened to me and the result was that my PR jumped to 6 on the next update.
