Social Bookmarking: How To Use Social Media Marketing To Build Your MLM
Social bookmarking is an opportunity that few Multi-Level Marketing entrepreneurs understand. In fact, most have never heard of Digg, or Stumbleupon, or Technorati. The list goes on and on and I absolutely did not understand it just a few short months ago. I'd never heard of these bookmarking sites. And I have surfed the Net for years.
I vaguely remember seeing a few Digg icons but when I would click on them, I would get a message that I was not a member so I couldn't digg anything. Well, what does that mean? I just didn't understand.
I certainly understand now!! Digg is helping me build my business for free!! Want to improve your rankings with the search engines and with real people? Join a social media site.
But be strategic about where you socialize and how you do it. Don't just bookmark all your own stuff. Comment on other's work, bookmark their articles and tell them you did. They will then most likely do the same for you. Besides, it's not attractive when someone see's your profile on Digg for instance, and all your "favorites" are your articles. And guess what? Search engines don't like it either.
When you and others bookmark your articles, it leverages your time and efforts because traffic to your website or article is more natural. You don't have to work hard for traffic. Just work hard on good content.
Visits to our websites from high traffic areas like Digg are what we want, visits from real people inside bookmarking sites. When we get that, the search engines reward us and put us on their pages. Why?
Because search engines love high traffic sites. They love Digg and Stumbleupon.com and many others. Here's how it works:

Hi readers posters social networking seekers far n wide, … excellent knowledgeable information and not hard to come across is the coolest way forwards and of course to have any website ranked high in the search engines all this and what you outlined above is definitely the best way forward to gain interested eyeballs ... but only if you take a chunk of time out of your daily online grind by joining in to a few of these social network sites … its not so cool if you just point and click any more you really have to get involved and gather a few friends who are as like-minded as yourself and digg the same grove … then the real magic starts to happen you and your efforts find the true meaning of social networking and as pointed out above the big search engines reward your chunk of time, patience, and your effort big-time...
All my best to you and your spent time?

It is so true that once one sets his mind to learning something new, good things happen. I too thought I could not learn all this social marking and wow! What a difference it does make. This is some great information and all we have to do is apply it.
