Social Bookmarking for Sale continued....

Increase traffic through organic search

In the last post I talked about the need for webmasters to do basic SEO on their websites. I also mentioned that social bookmarking was the new "insider secret" and that social bookmark links were much more valuable than the standard directory links. This blog post will continue this discussion with the use of paid social bookmarking services.

Insider Secret #2

Time is money, how much is your time worth? I must say that I have a good job. I get to work on this website almost all day long. Still, running a website is a lot of hard work and a webmaster or small business owner often finds that he /she has way too many hats to wear and not enough time in the day to do all the work. Think about it, a small business owner had to maintain business contacts, conduct sales, do profit and loss calculations, handle taxes and payroll, manage inventory, deal with employees, create and maintain a website, create new content for search engines, build back links, etc. etc. There is simply too much to do for one or two people.

Small business owners (people wanting to make money online) need to sit down and decide in what way they can best serve their business, and then outsource the rest of the work that you can't get to.

I do the same thing while maintaining this website. I simply do not have enough hours in the day to do everything that needs to be done. So, I find resources that allow me to get more things done in the same amount of time. Why spend 12 hours in a day submitting the site to directories or social bookmarking sites when I can pay someone $10 to $50 bucks to do it for me. Again, time is money right?

If you find yourself in the same situation, fear not, because there are options available to you. If you don't have the time to social bookmark your website, have someone else do it for you. It needs done, one way or another.

Recently I came across a post on Digital Point Forums that had the title "Top 100 Social bookmarking submission for $8". My first thought was, "wow, that is a good price." So, I opened the post and read through all of the comments and feedback. It seems DP member Harry_Potter was willing to do all my grunt work for me, and for a very reasonable price. Granted $8 here and there can add up fast, especially for a small business owner but, speaking from experience, I knew it was well worth the money. After al it, it would take at least 4 or 5 hours to do that many bookmarks manually and you could not get me to do it for less than $100.00.

So, after reviewing Harry_potter's itrader feedback, I found that there were 16 other people that had used the same service and left positive feedback. At this point I am feeling pretty confident and send him a private message, asking for more details.

After talking through private messages, I learn that not only does this member respond quickly and professionally, he was also willing to through in a few bonus URL's if I did a bulk order. Great! That lowered the cost down even further. I placed my order, got my bonus URL's as well and before I knew it I had an email from him listing all the sites that he used to social bookmark the website.

It's very rare that I am disappointed with a service I hire using DP forums and this case was no exception. If you are looking to increase your traffic, you must do basic SEO work on your website. One of the key factors in SEO is link building and Social Bookmarks are some of the best links. DP member Harry_potter can work some wonders for you and save you a lot of time and money should you decided that the tedious work of self social bookmarking is not for you.

Going forward.... I'll update you on other services I use on DP forums and additional SEO insider tips and tricks! Stay tuned and I almost forgot, if you liked this post, use the social bookmark button at the top right! :)
