Social Bookmarking: The Basics

By:


Social bookmarking websites let you save bookmarks online and tag and/or categorize them with keywords. The difference between local, or even remote, bookmarking (protopage Google, etc) is that with social bookmarking websites, it is a community of shared bookmarks within common categories or themes. These sites store and organize bookmarks and interesting articles and posts. The content is created by, and added to, by thousands of members; thus creating the community and changing the designation to social bookmarking.
A blog called Blog Marketing Tactics has provided a comprehensive list of social bookmarking websites. But beware. Not all are equal. Some stand above the crowd. A short list is Digg, Del.icio.us and Reddit.
They all do it just a bit differently, so choose which one works the best for you.
Next time I will go into more detail, using a few choice social bookmarking websites as well as how to use these to promote your business.
