How Does Social Bookmarking benefit Web Users?
On a Social Bookmarking system, users can store lists of Internet
resources that they find useful. These lists can be accessible to the public
by users of a specific network or website. Not only can you save your
favorite websites and send them to your friends, but you can also look at
what other people have found interesting enough to tag.
Most social bookmarking sites allow you to browse based on a certain
category like shopping, technology, politics, blogging, news, sports, etc.,
and usually they allow you to vote on the submitted link , or story
which will in terms show the No of reader whom visit your site.
You can also search through what people have bookmarked by typing in
what you are looking for in the search tool. The Bigger book-marking
site who has Millions of members also provide a wider scope of
categories which simplify your search therefore it is as good as a
Search Engine Platform some time.
7. Page 5
Websites like Digg, Delicious, douban, Reddit, Shuqian.qq and Propeller
focus on social bookmarking of news-related items such as politics,
sports, technology, etc. These websites will often feature breaking
headlines and bloggers discussing the current news items.
What is Social News? Is Social News the Same as Social
Bookmarking?
Social news sites are different from standard social bookmarking sites as
they focus on specific articles and blog posts rather than websites thus
providing a great source of news, and they also offer participation to
member in the discussion by leaving comments on popular news items.
Social bookmarking and social news allow you to specifically target
what you want to see. Instead of going into a search engine, typing
something in, and then searching for that needle in a haystack, you can
quickly narrow down the items to what you are looking for. It's pretty
easy to tell that the article with a hundred votes might be your best
choice.
How Can I Benefit From Social Bookmarking?
You no longer need to look through thousands of results to find your
subject of interest. Now, you can simply go to a social bookmarking site,
choose the category or tag that matches your interest, and find the most
popular websites.
Most social bookmarking services allow users to search for bookmarks
which are associated with given tags, and rank the resources by the
number of users which have bookmarked them.
8. Page 6
Its increasing popularity and competition have extended the services to
offer more than just sharing bookmarks, such as commenting, and rating
and the ability to import and export, add photo, reviews, story, email
links. Creating groups with your own follower, send notification and
also provide feed subscription.
Social Bookmarking can bring immediate traffic to your website, as web
2.0 community websites such as Digg, Reddit ,Diigo ,Baidu Soucang ,
Twine, Stumbleupon & Delicious provide almost immediate information
on various topics. These type of Bookmarking sites index and categorize
content usually faster than the major search engines. People looking for
the latest information on certain topics usually refer to these types of
services.
The benefit is two fold. They provide immediate traffic from like-
minded targeted viewers but also powerful back links to your sites that
bring positive SEO and Search Engine results.

Social Bookmarking and Tagging
Welcome to Social Bookmarking and Tagging, the powerful practice of
adding URLs into a social content website and tagging them with
familiar keywords.
There are many web tools , and social Bookmarking sites which
allow the easy creation of Social Bookmarks . Simply register with a
site such as http://www.delicious.com, www.stumbleupon.com and
www.digg.com where you can store Social Bookmarks and add Tagging
a simple categorizing exercise to make finding these sites easier for
everyone.
Visitors to these websites can quickly find your Social Bookmarks by
searching for websites by such criteria as keywords, phrases ,tag related
to your subject interest
Social content websites like , propeller ,delicious.com and digg.com
allow people to share their favorite websites with others and in ,most
cases enable the addition of comments. Its becoming common for
websites to include icons or links to the most popular social tagging sites
to encourage visitors to tag them, with a view to generating more site
traffic.
Tagging therefore forms a vital element of social media optimization
(SMO), a way to enhance the placement of websites on social media
sites . It also forms an important part of Search Engine Optimization
(SEO) since it builds link popularity for your pages.
10. Page 8
Bookmarking is the practice of saving bookmarks or Favorites to a
user-driven website and tagging them with keywords. Other users are
invited to review these bookmarks and get involved at a more
meaningful level, by tagging them in their own social bookmarking
profiles or linking to them from their own websites. Most social
bookmarking sites tend to work the same way: the contributing user tags
a URL and other users decide if they want to tag and link to the website
from their own.

Social Bookmarking , Knowing the process of Tagging and
Pinging
Exactly what is tag and ping? It is Not Tick - Tack - Toe!!
The purpose of tag and ping is to get links and traffic to your site using
the latest Social Bookmarking trend. This new system involves a
LABELLING exercise.. What does that mean?
Well LABELLING means Internet users can categorize the content
they have, including web pages, photographs and links into labels which
they call tags.
Eg , when you wish to post a blog article on the iphone , you can
suggest the following tags which relates to the iphone eg ..
Tags : iphone, Apple, apps , movies, music , iPad
By categorizing article in this way, a website owner can improve their
search engine effectiveness. Why?
Normally The content on a blog or website now uses what people call
a shared vocabulary. This allows others to easily access each page when
the information they search relies and happened to be of the same tags
or labels.
Lets say for example you have a blog you categorize as iphone .
There are many sites; sites like delicious , dig , where you can search
iphone and up will come your site among many others whom has the
same tags

This guide is meant to help you understand the basics of tagging and
pinging as well as social bookmarking so you can learn how to drive

The process of labeling material is not really a new phenomenon. In fact,
people often use what they call, social bookmarks to help keep their
links organized, and often blog search engines have tag clouds so
someone can locate information in a blog quickly.
As social sites often receive inbound links and traffic easily, so Internet
users are catching on that they should organize their sites in this way to
help improve traffic.
Tagging Plays a Major Part in Social Bookmarking
There are many benefits of tagging. The biggest benefit is that it can
attract more visitors and that can increase the targeted traffic you have
coming to your site, and gain quality backlinks to add to your site.
People visiting your site can find information easily on your site.
14. Page 12
Chapter 1
Tagging, Pinging and Social Bookmarking
Just the past few years ,when Blogging became more common ,
Blog and Ping were the buzzwords among smart and savvy
consumers. There is a good reason for this as Blogging and pinging
involved writing keyword rich entries into blog posts and then pinging
the posts with directory sites like My Yahoo, Pingomatic , etc so that
your information and entry would become indexed on major search
engines. This technique can work, but it doesnt work as well as it used
to because search engines work differently now.
In place of Blog and Ping is now Tag and Ping of your blog post
through social bookmarking
Tag and Ping is a great way to drive targeted traffic to your sites. When
we mention good targeted traffic we are meant about traffic from
consumers that have an interest in what you have to say in your Blogs
post and what you may have to offer.
With Tagging and pinging it will involves placing tags throughout your
site. Your ultimate purpose is to utilize the tags to optimize your pages
for search engines by strategically placing keywords or tags
throughout your site , so that it will get Indexed and will be rank
In this way , the tags will be similarly use as keywords to get your
sites and pages indexed much more quickly. People that want to read
your sites, they will have the ability to tag or categorize keywords on
your sites which will boost audiences visit.
15. Page 13
Compared to the Blog and Ping method ,What is happening is a
change in the way things work. In the past, we created and defined our
sites then we ping to major Pinging sites .But when you use tagging
and pinging, your visitors end up eventually defining your site for you.
Tags
What are tags? They are keywords or labels you use to categorize your
website or web pages. Tags is presently the best way to bookmark a site.
It does help to organize your Favorites under different keywords
selected by you, on your social Bookmarking site. When you try to
retrieve your favorite from a List of bookmarks, the tag function will
help you to sort out all the sites under a chosen Tag, which you
nominated, and you do not need to remember where you put your links.
You just browse your Keyword list (which you tagged) and that select
the tag word eg. Movies, then all favorites related with Movies will
bring up the pages (which has been tagged) up to your screen, in your
social bookmarkings site.
Tag and Keywords
Tagging is nothing more than a way you can categorize information on
your website and place it on the web. Normally what happens when
someone starts or builds a website is they place keywords throughout
their website and hope search engine spiders will find their site and list
their site.
In the case with tagging, it is slightly different .
16. Page 14
Tags are nothing more than a way of organizing, much like keywords
are. As it organize ,it sorts and categorize , and then it bring together
similar tags under the same category together ,this way Search engine
also is able to find the site, with related tags , and there it bring up the
pages under this mentioned tag
Lets say you write an article on Portable Media Player . So you can
tag the word Portable Media Player , or Digital Media Player . A
tag is a bit more than a keyword however, because it also includes a
description of the content the tag is all about.
When someone clicks that information, they dont just bring up the word
Digital media Player but they also bring up a short description of the
content related to Digital Media Player which you refer to on your web
page.
As the ultimate requirement is to bring traffic to your site , the new
social Bookmarking trend has set a way that Site which are properly
tagged and organized in a logical way will have better chance to be
found by search engine ,so therefore you will have to clean up and
reorganize your existing site with New Keyword which are more
frequently used as tag , this way all the information , articles , or posts
you have on your site can be easily found by search engine web
browser.
17. Page 15
Match with Tag
Tagging is commonized , and therefore there are many prominent
sites which have search categories that may match the ones you create
on your site.
So try to match your tag with some of the tag of these big sites so
that when someone searches for a popular tag, and happens you have
Matched tagged information on your site under that tag, you get free
advertising and a link to your site.
To simply , when example Google search for Digital media Player
, some top 10 rank pages will have sites from major players like
Western Digital , Seagate , TVix , Denon etc but as you have tagged
and match your website with the Digital media Player ,knowing
that ie . Seagate and Western digital are prominent user of this tag ,
your website may come up within the first 20 rank , and web surfer
whom are searching for this product , will find your website in the
first 20 rank page.
18. Page 16
Social Bookmarks
After understanding the concept of Tagging , Now we will discuss
on the feasibility of social Bookmarking and the backlinks that come
with the process.
As mentioned earlier before social bookmarking is a way to make all
your favorite links readily accessible to the public. You can post your
Photo albums , your links or your bookmarks or your favorites online so
that you can access them at any computer, and it allows you top
Publicize your bookmarks to the public or keep it private to selected
friends.
As the social Bookmarking allows you to put up all your favorite web
pages and blogs online, then you dont need your personal computer to
find them. Imagine if you are away from home or at a friends place
using another computer, they wont have your favorites , but you can
easily get online to find them at your social bookmarking site.
Backlinks are inbound links that directs to a web site . These links are
important for search engine optimization because many search engines
offer websites with good quality backlinks with better page ranks.
This are important as Google is famous for crediting sites for having
inbound links, so it pays to have them if you can.
Social Book Marking is important social tools these days Its
brilliant and its easy. It makes life on the Internet easy. Social
bookmarking sites are showing up in the search engine rankings. So if
you add your link to them the chances your link will be seen are much
greater.
Lets say you find bookmarks other people made on the subject of
smartphone and that is your keyword, you dont have to spend hours
on the net looking for smartphone, you can just look up the tag word
smartphone on a social bookmarking site.
19. Page 17
This is a great way to get your site noticed and bring in more traffic
without much effort. Someone looking for smartphone in general or for
another site about smartphone may accidentally bump into your site
since it is listed in the social bookmarking site, then that person may go
on to tag your site using the same or another keyword.
20. Page 18
Summary of the Process
Well go into much more detail about the actual process of tagging and
pinging later, but here is a quick summary of how it works:
-First, you write a post or an article.
-Next, you categorize or tag your post or article . If you are posting to a
blog, you can categorize your post under many different categories.
-Then, set your blog or site up and pings it with pingomatic and other
big social bookmarking sites like Delicious , Buzz, Diig ,multiply etc
-Now your site will be update with most search engine after this
Blog and Ping step
21. Page 19
The Pinging exercise will allow sites like diigo.com or delicious and
other popular sites, to automatically visit your post and place you under
the tags you categorized your post at. By doing this exercise , your site
will gain more exposure that normal traffic generating method
22. Page 20
Popular Tags and Page Rank
Some major Blog directory will list a weekly Hot Tag list . Check
out at technorati.com ( just upgraded their site ) and you will find
their hot list of popular tags. If you write and categorize posts and
articles under these tags, you are much more likely to produce a lot of
free traffic to your site. This way , you can focus on certain niche
article or post ,to compliment with the mentioned Hot Tags to
increase your chance to get web surfers to click and visit your site.
When they do come to your site , make sure you send them direct to
your sales landing page and pitch them the products or services you
have. If you have a hard-hitting sales page, you may win most of your
visitors over.
If you have content rich site you can drive targeted traffic to your site
and earn money through affiliate commissions or Google Adsense.
23. Page 21
Chapter 2
Tagging and Pinging For Websites
Websites get socially bookmarked usually , and blogs are socially
pinged but can be bookmarked also While they both get tagged, it is
important you distinguish between the two.
Websites get bookmarks. These bookmarks are picked up by major
social bookmarking websites, including sites like Technorati.com.
Basic Bookmarking
Most of the social bookmarking sites will allow users to enter the site
and place their bookmarks once after registering. This process takes
just five minutes. All you do is enter a user ID and a password. You may
have to provide your email address and that is about it.
First, all you need to do is open your browser. You probably have
Internet Explorer, Netscape, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Any
browser will do if you plan to set up your website with social
bookmarking sites. Most computers are set up to use Internet Explorer
by default.
Once you open your browser, its time to register with your first social
bookmarking site. Lets go to a very popular site, and friendly site.
24. Page 22
Go to the site Delicious .com
Delicious is an social bookmarking website that help you store,share,and
discover new online bookmarks. The visitors to the site can tag their
bookmarks in a unique system that follows the keyword categorizing
system.
Youll need to register with this site to use it. Sign up by creating a user
name and password, it is that easy.
Delicious.com suggest installing a my delicious button and tag this
button after you registered. What this will do is install a button in your
browser that will allow you to automatically tag items and bookmark
pages on your site.
Then youll need to restart your Internet Browser after which when
you restart your browser you will see your Delicious buttons on the top
of your toolbar.
25. Page 23
To further organize your Bookmarks , we suggest ,you put up a New
folder in the Favorites and Title this new folder mybookmarklets.
That way you can easily keep track of all your tags in an organized
fashion. It is much like organizing your favorites into folders and
subdirectories in your bookmarks list.
Now lets visit another social bookmarking site. Go to
www.blinklist.com, it is also another site for Discover , Blink and
share
Similar to the Delicious . You will have to register for this site as well.
Just enter a username and password, and provide them with a valid email
address. Once your account is set up, Blinklist takes you through a quick
tutorial explaining how to add the blink button to your browser and how
to bookmark sites.
Go to the bottom of this page and there is a button titled how to use
blinklist. You will also see a choice that says Blink this site. You can
click this button, or you can put this button into your bookmarklets
folder for keeping track of your social bookmarks.
The blink button allows you to add a websites link to your list with a
single click. Instead of taking you to the Blinklist site, the button will
bring up a small window where you can add the appropriate keyword
tags, type in a small description, rate the website, or send /share the site
to a friend. If you highlight a portion of text on the website before
clicking the button, this text will appear in the notes field, just save it
26. Page 24
Since this is a beginners view of social bookmarking. You always have
the choice of course just to click the button blink this or tag this
and just have the site marked generically in your bookmarks. This is an
easy way to keep track of your tags. If you are just starting out, you may
want to try this, then later worry about creating a separate folder to store
your bookmarklets in. Now lets spend some time learning how to
bookmark target websites.
27. Page 25
Chapter 3
Bookmarking target Websites with Delicious and Blinklist
Target websites are individual websites you want to bookmark. You may
have many websites, or you may have many pages throughout your
website you want to tag and mark. You can take a target website and
bookmark it one by one if you want. The process is simple. You can go
to a dozen social bookmarking sites, but lets just start with the two we
are already working with.
Lets say you go to your website, www.socialaddress.com
What you want to do is copy some of the information on the page, you
can use Control C or Edit, copy from your toolbar menu, then clicks
your tag me button and a window will come up. You will see the
information you highlighted is added in this window. You then must add
the tag.
Remember, this is where categorizing information becomes important.
You can put any tag you want. If you select a tag related to your site that
is a hot or popular tag, you are more likely to attract more visitors to
your site. Lets say you have a site about Movies You can out the tag
Blu-ray Movies and bookmark the information. Then you can save
that information.
28. Page 26
You can then click youre my delicious button once you log into
www.Delicous.com and make sure your tag has been saved. You will
find your site and the information you added on the site. You may come
across someone else has already bookmarked your site. Remember, the
wonderful trick of social bookmarking is that you start the process by
tagging relevant information on your site. Overtime other people also
start tagging your site. So as it grows ,you can build your site up and
traffic will come in.
Lets Try with www.Blinklist.com, now .
You can do this by using a Control V command to paste the information
you copied from your site into blinklist after you click your blink this
button. You can again enter any tags that you want to enter. If you then
go to www.blinklist.com you can click on my list and find your site
and the information you entered.
Other people will also visit your site, and may tag your site as well,
again bringing in even more traffic.
Preferably you should choose the Public area on blinklist.com or any
other social bookmarking site and enter your keywords (or your tags)
into the search box. When you do this you should be able to call up your
information, including a description and a link to your site. You can
easily start promoting your site with the click of a button.
You can also add other booklets found on the site to your list easily,
either one by one or add them all at once.
29. Page 27
Finding the right Category to Post In
Remember categories are like keywords. You want to use hot
keywords or tags and categories to post your information in. The hotter
the better, because more people are likely to see your information.
Social bookmarking sites provide you with Bookmarking tools you can
use to find out if the categories you are listing in are popular or not. To
start off ;we will use Delicious .com to find a topic.
Now think about the topic or the niche you want to search. Lets say
again you are looking for information on Phone . After typing in the
name , youll notice a list of different tags come up that you can use
and add as categories in your blog. Lets say for example you put in the
word phone, and you might find mobile phone and smart phone.
Those may be potential categories you can use. What you want to do is
try to pick the categories that are most likely to attract response clicks
from potential customers. This method is simple and fast will
eventually help drive the most traffic to your site.
30. Page 28
Technicalities of Pinging
A pinging system for social bookmark sites is different from those for
blogs.
Blogs has to be frequently pinged in order for it to be regularly updated
on the Most searched search engine.
When it comes to social bookmarking, you cant simply submit your log
to them. But you can put a mechanism in place that will allow people
who see your post to bookmark it. There are many different ways of
doing this. You can do this using a plugins for example. There is one
available here:
addthis.com, or Bookmark this
When you click on this site, you can download the widget for example,
from Addthis.
You need to download it first, then upload it to the plugins directory for
your blog. This will allow people to automatically come in and
bookmark the pages they want or the posts they want on your blog. Its
act as a simple tools for visitor to just click and then book mark to
their prefer social bookmarking site . This Addthis widget usually
provide links to more then 30 social Bookmarking sites ,with one
click , and all the site will come out in a new window lining small icon
of for their affiliate Bookmarking site for your selection
31. Page 29
If you were to go back to your blog, and back to your admin pages, you
can go to the Plugins option on the toolbar and you should find
Addthis . You can activate it and allow others to bookmark your site.
This is just another way to help increase exposure to your site and
improve the popularity of your site.
There are many sites apart from Delicious and BlinkList you can go to,
like blinkbits, blogmarks, Digg , LinkaGoGo, NewsVine,
YahooMyWeb( Buzz ) etc easily up to more than 300 Bookmarking
sites are available today.

Chapter 4
Social Bookmarking and Annotation
Diigo is a research and Knowledge sharing Bookmarking site , it has
all of the basic social bookmarking features. You can bookmark any site,
add a description and tags, and allow others to comment on your
bookmarks. There is one exclusive feature for Diigo ,that is its
annotation features . How it works is that , you can attach highlighted
text and notes to any bookmark and even simultaneously bookmark to
other social bookmarking services, such as Delicious, Blinklist, , and
more.
Diigo allows for easy annotating a page and then bookmark it to Diigo
and Delicious and because the notes are saved to Diigo, the next time I
go to that website from my Delicious bookmarks, the notes will be there.
You dont have to use Diigo for its bookmarking . You may also import
your browser or Delicious bookmarks to Diigo and export them when
needed.
With the annotation features.Users can bookmark a page and highlight
text and images on the page to take note of. Highlights on a page by the
user will then save and appear as a blue dashed underline whenever they
visit the site again.
33. Page 31
Being able to bookmark and annotate a page is very helpful. In terms of
research, you can bookmark and annotate all the sites related to the topic
you are researching. When your done getting all the information you
need, select all the bookmarks in the My Bookmarks area and select in
the top right drop down, Extract highlights. This will then grab all
your notes from all the sources youve saved and display them on a
clean page for you to look over and print.
