Social bookmarking is an integral part to any Social Arena Marketing campaign. It enables your content to be easily found, saved and shared.

With the right keywords included in the content, you may find your bookmarked content appearing on search engines like Google in as little as 24 hours.

Social Bookmarking Guidelines

Top 7 Guidelines for Social Bookmarking

  1. Don’t treat the headline like a advertisement tag line. Want to learn how to write a good headline? Check out Copyblogger’s Article on the 5 Best Headline Formulas.
  2. Headlines should be catchy and use your most valuable keywords.
  3. On many social bookmarking web sites, the username will get picked up in the search engines. Use this to your advantage.
  4. Using the company name in the headline will, most of the time, make the post look like an ad. Avoid this if possible.
  5. Provide useful information that is very helpful, newsworthy, or potentially viral.
  6. Include the social bookmarking icon links on your web pages which are unique or worth saving and sharing.
  7. The tags used for each saved bookmark are very important. If you are saving or sharing your own bookmarks, make sure the correct tag/key words are used.

    In a social bookmarking system, users save links to web pages that they want to remember and/or share. These bookmarks are usually public, and can be saved privately, shared only with specified people or groups, shared only inside certain networks, or another combination of public and private domains.

What is Social Media Marketing?

    From Wikipedia: "Social Media Marketing (SMM) combines the goals of internet marketing with social media sites such as Digg, Flickr, MySpace, YouTube and many others. The SMM goals will be different for every business or organization, however most will involve some form of viral marketing to build idea or brand awareness, increase visibility, and possibly sell a product or service. SMM may also include online reputation management."
