Everybody who has had a lot of success in life will tell you, Strategy is King! If you want to have any sort of success you need to have a plan first. This is true for everything in life from Schooling, to Careers, to your Family and Personal Goals, you MUST have a plan to succeed. I am going to apply this principle to Internet Marketing, specifically using a Social Bookmarking Strategy to drive Traffic to your Website.
Almost everyone has a website these days, but how many people have any idea what their long term goals are for their Website? My guess is, not too many. The Internet is overpopulated with Affiliate Marketers, and while it is certainly not impossible to make a living working as an Affiliate, it can be extremely difficult. This is why it is even more important to have some specific strategies planed out for your Website. What are your Keywords? Why did you choose them? Does your Keyword get search engine traffic? Does your Keyword Convert visitors? These are all very important questions to ask youself. If you dont know the answers you need to do more Keyword Research. Google has many tools available to help you, like the Google Adwords Keyword Tool.
Once you know your Keyword and you know it gets traffic and converts well, it is time to start planning your next step. Social Bookmarking is a proven method for getting visitors to your Website. Rather than just randomly submitting your Website to various Social Bookmarking sites you must have a complete Social Bookmarking Strategy marked out in advance.
Check for Social Bookmarking sites like Onlywire. Onlywire lets you create accounts at a ton of Social Bookmarking Sites and then submit your bookmarks to them in one easy step. It is all streamlined and time saving, which is cruitial to any online endevour. Make sure to include in your Social Bookmarking Strategy that you need to bookmark your website's index page first. Be sure the title you use is Keyword rich and that the description is something catchy to grab people's attention and make them visit your site. Use Tags that are broad rather than specific to help more visitors find your site on these Bookmarking Sites.
If part of your marketing strategy includes Articles and RSS feeds, be sure to Social Bookmark all your Profile Pages of your Article and RSS Accounts. This does some added promotion and helps get visitors to find your feeds and articles, eventually bringing them back to your site. It also helps Search Engines find you by creating more backlinks to your site, which can prove especially useful with Google. Make sure your profiles at all of your Article and RSS sites have a Profile Picture and that your profiles are completely filled out. Not only does this make you more legit, but it brings an added sense of trust to any future visitors.
Also, be sure you use different titles and descriptions in your Social Bookmarking Strategy. If everything is bookmarked with the same title, tags and description, it will look like Spam to both visitors and Search Engines. Beings blacklisted as Spam is possibly the worst thing you could have happen and something to avoid at all costs.
Be sure to include bookmarking any page that is pointing back to your main page in your Social Bookmarking Strategy. Don't bookmark a ton of different pages from your site, but rather pages from other sites which contain links with your main keyword to your Website. Promoting other websites that link to you will help you rank higher in Search Engines, which can and will bring you loads of free online traffic.
