Social Bookmarking
Neil Patel from ACS SEO and QuickSprout has created this session along with the guys from Unique Blog Designs about how to use social media websites to promote your blog. The session is below as is a summary of the session and a few related links.
1. Stumble Upon
If you don’t have a stumble upon account, create one now and add “Stumble This” buttons to each blog post. Stumble Upon is a social bookmarking tool that many people are just now starting to use. Stumble Upon users download a Stumble Upon toolbar and can rate every site they visit with a “Thumbs Up” or a “Thumbs Down”. If a page gets a lot of “Thumbs Ups”, it is shared in the community and can lead to thousands of visitors. With over 2 Million registered users and more signing up each day, SU is one of the easiest ways to present your blog to a large audience.
2. Digg
Digg is the most popular social media site on the web with millions of users and tens of thousands of submitted stories.
3. Entrecard
Entrecard is a new soical media site, with more of a focus on social networking and interaction for bloggers.
