What tips do you have on social bookmarking?

See other opinions.

Social bookmarking sites are a wonderful way to promote web sites, blogs, and affiliate marketing programs--if you go about it the right way. Here are some do's and don'ts that will help you make the most of the experience:

Social Bookmarking Do's

Do find a social bookmarking site that has users who will be interested in the types of affiliate marketing programs, blog, and web site that you want to promote.Do read the site rules. If you don't go by the book, you will most likely be banned.

Do tag your web site, blog, and other web presences so people can find you and your submissions in the site's search engine Do network with other bookmarking users. You will get more traffic to your blogs and web sites and make more money through your affiliate marketing programs if you have friends to help promote your submissions. Do encourage the people who visit your web site and blog to bookmark them.

Social Bookmarking Don'ts

Don't promote your affiliate marketing programs too directly. Sales copy is considered spam on some bookmarking sites. Don't create multiple accounts from the same computer so you can vote repeatedly for your submissions on bookmarking sites. You could get banned. Don't expect to get visibility on the home page every time you make a submission to a social bookmarking site. Nobody is that lucky.

Don't be afraid to submit and bookmark content from other blogs and web sites. Don't forget to promote your blogs and affiliate marketing programs on your web site. Marketing through bookmarking will get traffic to your site, but it is your responsibility to turn that traffic into paying customers. Don't forget to put links to bookmarking sites at the bottom of your blog.
