Social Bookmarking

Social Bookmarking / Social Bookmarking websites are an Internet resources in which users organize, manage, store, share and explore the bookmarks of someone else. The easiest way to think about it is that it is a public version of your web browser’s bookmark bar/tab. It was actually in the year 2003 that social bookmarking and social bookmarking websites first began. Delicious was actually the name of the very first social bookmarking website. Social bookmarking is also commonly known as tagging. Tagging is significant because involves marking the bookmarks with keywords and tags.

I highly recommend social bookmarking to any and all article writers (as well as anyone else trying to increase traffic to any of their websites). From personal experience, my views have increased a few hundred views since I started submitting links to social bookmarking websites. I recommend starting with sites such as Digg or RedGage. These two sites are great social bookmarking websites.
