Previously, I discussed about how to submit your webpages to directories and social bookmarking sites as a search engine optimization technique. Continuing from there, I would like to recommend Technorati, a very popular site that offers both blog directory submission and social bookmarking services. The reason why I recommend Technorati is because unlike most blog directory, it approves your blog submission immediately and doesn't require any link back to them.
Previously, I talked about the importance of getting your website listed in social bookmarking sites to gain more traffic. To make it easier for your visitors to add your site to the social bookmarking sites, I strongly recommend you to get a social bookmarking widget from Add This to place on your site. Besides social bookmarking widget, Add This also offers feed widget. All these widgets are free.
Social bookmarking is a way for internet users to store, classify, share and search Internet bookmarks. From a search engine optimization perspective, social bookmarking represents ample opportunities for your websites to get noticed. Simply submit yours posts to social bookmarking sites such as Digg and del.icio.us and users on these social bookmarking sites might find your posts. If your posts do get popular through this method, usually the traffic doesn’t last long. However, in the process you just might be able to retain some extra new readers. Remember don't spam social bookmarking sites for the sake of gaining traffic.
