Social Bookmarking Strategy To Success

When it comes to Marketing your Website, using Social Media is King. With the rise of Social Media sites, Internet Marketing has become a constantly changing process, adapting to new Technologies and techniques as they come. It is now more important than ever to have a Plan or Strategy in place before you set out on any Online Marketing ventures. Using a Social Bookmarking Strategy can and will save you time and money in the long run.

So what is the best Social Bookmarking Strategy to use to market your site? Well, I don’t know what the BEST one is – that completely depends on how that word is defined, but I can share with you the strategy that I personally use to market my Websites that has proved itself a success to me.

First, I create accounts at all of the social bookmarking Sites that I want to include in my Social Bookmarking Strategy. This can be tedious and time consuming, so if you have the funds do yourself a favor and buy some automated Marketing Software Strategy software to speed the process up for you and save you the headache.

Once that is done I social bookmark the main page of my Website that I am promoting with a title that is Keyword Rich. I focus my efforts on one Keyword at a time, so choose just 1 Keyword to market for now (I personally recommend using Keyword Finding Software to find money making Keywords that are of low competition and high converting. Never underestimate the Keyword Research process). Also include your Keyword Phrase in your Tags and choose tags that are popular and relevant to your site.

Now that you have Bookmarked your Main Webpage at all the Bookmarking Sites it is time to move on to bookmarking all Websites you know of that are linking to yours. These can be other blogs or sites you own, or sites of friends, family, link trade partners, etc. Make sure you bookmark the specific page on their site that is pointing back to yours, as that is what helps Google and other Search Engines find your site.

The next thing I usually do in my Social Bookmarking Strategy is create a Web 2.0 Property. I personally prefer Squidoo Lenses over any others. Simply go to Squidoo, create an account and place content from your site onto the personal Squidoo Lens page your just created. Include at least one link on your Lens that points back to your main Website. Also, be sure to anchor the link with the Keyword Phrase you have chosen.

Once you’ve created your Web 2.0 property that points back to your site it’s time to Bookmark it. You are going to repeat the same process you did with submitting your main Website and submit your Squidoo Lens Site to the Bookmarking Sites with a Keyword Rich title, description and popular tags.

If you want to go above and beyond with your promotion you can also bookmark any RSS Feed Profiles you have created that point to your site. In short, bookmark anything and everything that points to your site. The easier you make it for Google to find your Website with your Keyword Phrase, the faster and higher it will rank in search engine results.
