Hi,

I have been working on Social Bookmarking submission for more then 6 months but is this task is good for the website promotion ? As i have seen that it's good way to get some traffic though the Social Media but i cant see any increment in my back link's. So what should i do for the promotion of my website ? Should i need to be continued with Social Media or stop with this and go for other alternate.

What type of things are you promoting? Are you actually engaging with people, or just posting links?

Remember the majority of your links will be "nofollowed" by default.

From what I've seen, it can be powerful, but you;ve got the promote in the right circles

Social bookmarking and backlinks are two completely different things. By using social bookmarks you can get a steady stream of visitors to your page/site as you've found but unless you're doing something worth talking about then no-one is going to link to you.

Promoting a site is more than visitor numbers and backlinks, for instance when someone arrives at your site can they achieve their goal? How are you measuring whether a visit has been successful?

Ecommerce is the easiest one to measure because you can track referrers, visits and a definate success criteria, eg a sale.

If you have G.Anal on your site, it's been suggested that visitor statistics (e.g. how many come, how long they stay, how many pages they visit, what their page load time is, etc.) affect search rankings to some degree. But unless we're talking thousands/day it's probably not worth considering.

Continue with socialbookmarking, its effective but side by side go for directory submission, blog commenting and link exchange

Social bookmarking helps to get a high r one way backlink so it s a good way of off-page optimization technique
