When it comes to Marketing your Website, using Social Media is King. With the rise of Social Media sites, Website Marketing has become an ever changing process, adapting to new Technologies as they come. It is now more important than ever to have a Plan or Strategy in place before you set out on any Website Marketing ventures. Using a Social Bookmarking Strategy can and will save you time and money.
So what is the best Social Bookmarking Strategy to use to market your site? Well, I have no idea what the BEST one is - it depends on how you define the word, but I can share with you the strategy that I personally use to market my Sites that has proven itself a success to me.
First, I create account profiles at all of the social bookmarking Websites that I want to include in my Social Bookmarking Strategy. This can be tedious and time consuming, so if you have the funds do yourself a favor and purchase some automation software to speed up the process for you.
Once I have that done I social bookmark the main page of my Site with a title that is Keyword Rich. I focus my efforts on one Keyword at a time, so choose just 1 Keyword for now (I personally recommend using Keyword Finding Software to find money making Keywords that are low competition and high converting. Never underestimate the Keyword Research process). Also include the Keyword Phrase in your Tags and choose tags that are popular and relevant to your Website.
Now that you have Bookmarked your main Website at all the various Bookmarking Websites it is time to move on to bookmarking all sites that are linking to yours. These can be other Blogs or Websites that you own, or sites of friends, family, link trade partners, etc. Be sure you bookmark the page on their Website that is pointing back to yours, as this is what will help Google and other Search Engines find your site.
The next thing I usually do in my Social Bookmarking Strategy is make a Web 2.0 Property. I personally prefer Squidoo Lenses over any other. Simply go to Squidoo, make an account and place content from your Website onto your personal Squidoo Lens page. Include at least one link on your page that points back to your main Website. Also, be sure to anchor the link with your Keyword Phrase you chose earlier.
Once you have made your Web 2.0 property that links back to your Website with your Keyword Phrase, it's time to Bookmark it. Go through the same process you did with submitting your main Site and submit your Squidoo Lens to the Bookmarking Websites with a Keyword Rich title, description and popular tags.
If you want to go above and beyond you can also bookmark any RSS Feed Profiles or Article Profile pages you may have created that point to your site. In short, bookmark anything and everything that links to your site. The easier you make it for Google and other Search Engines to find your Website with the Keyword you chose, the faster and more highly it will rank in search engine results.
