Social bookmarking sites for one way links

It is no secret that a website must get lots of quality incoming links for ranking high in search engines. These days however, search engines are getting smarter; they have realized how easy it is to arrange link exchanges, so reciprocal links just don’t count any more. Now the emphasis is on getting ’one way links’ (a link from another site to yours without you giving a reciprocal link to the site).

Few days ago I was analyzing the backlinks to my website and I could find some high PR links to my site such as this one del.icio.us/coop/seo.  That was great !!  I discovered one more way of getting free incoming links which are relevant and of high quality. Social bookmarking sites such asdel.icio.us, furl.net, blinklist.com, blogmarks.net, linkrolling.com can serve as an important source of incoming links to your website.

For those who are new to social bookmarking, it is the practice of saving bookmarks to a public website and ‘tagging’ them with keywords. And bookmarking is the practice of saving the address of the website you wish to visit in the future. At social bookmark sites you get a public space to post your bookmarks and comments on your favorite web pages to share with other surfers.  Most of these social bookmark sites have high PageRank and are heavily spidered by the search engines.  These links are one way links from high PR sites, with keywords of your choice in the anchor text and can help you in boosting your link popularity.

So how to go about it? All you need to do is create your account at few such social bookmarking sites. Link to pages from your own sites as well as from some other sites, and refrain from spamming.

This is a time consuming job, but there are some tools avaliable which can automate this job. BookmarkingDemon is one such tool. If you wish to know more, you can download free report from BookMarkingDemon about how to get incoming links from social bookmarking sites.
