Hello,

When I create a new article and post it in my blog, then I submit it to social bookmarking sites. I usually submit about 40 social bookmarking sites.

My question is,

how often do I submit to these social bookmarking sites?
should I break them to submit 10 social bookmarking sites per day?
or
should I submit all 40 social bookmarking sites a day?

Which method is better to index my site or blog?

Thanks very much!
Have a nice day!

The thread splits between a pacing camp and a bulk-submission camp (examples: and arguing for spreading submissions; and reporting bulk works for them). The important missing piece is intent: is the goal rapid indexing, short-term referral clicks, or building long-term editorial links? Google discovers new pages both by following links and from sitemaps/Search Console — bookmarking can help discovery but it’s only one part of the pipeline. (developers.google.com)

For rapid indexing, follow the technical route first: keep an up-to-date XML sitemap, add contextual internal links from frequently-crawled pages, and use the URL Inspection / “request indexing” option for a few high-priority URLs. After that, share in a few well-chosen discovery communities rather than blasting hundreds of low-quality bookmark sites; many social/bookmark platforms mark outbound links with rel attributes (nofollow/ugc/sponsored), so their direct ranking value is limited — they’re mainly useful for discovery and referral. (developers.google.com)

Avoid automation and identical, mass-submissions. Google treats large-scale manipulative link campaigns and automated link creation as link-scheme behavior; measured promotion inside real communities plus outreach for editorial links is far safer and more effective long term. Also remember Google has said social signals don’t directly change organic rankings — any SEO benefit is usually indirect (traffic → natural links → signals). (developers.google.com)

Practical, low-effort workflow (apply per post):

  • Share first to a small set of high-quality, topic-relevant communities; use unique, useful descriptions that explain why the post matters there.
  • Stagger additional shares over several days to mimic natural distribution and to test which sites drive real clicks or links.
  • Track results (Search Console for indexing status, analytics for referral traffic, backlink tools for link pickup) and double down on platforms that actually drive signals that matter.

Bottom line: social bookmarking is a distribution tactic, not a shortcut to rankings. Prioritize technical discoverability, content quality, and targeted community promotion over raw submission counts.

For me bookmarking is one of the best methods to quick index. Is better to submit 10 bookmarks per day and maybe complement this work with article marketing.

I think you should spread out your efforts. Do not, by any means, do all forty social bookmarks the same day. Do not get me wrong, it won't be harmful or anything like that, but you want to make sure you submit enough links to be indexed EACH DAY, and not all of the links to be indexed in one day.

I usually submit to about 15-20 each of my posts....I`m using an automatic software ( onlywire.com )

In my own experiences, it is OK to submit your new post links to all the social bookmarking sites since they are different sites. One thing I would like to mention would be don't only bookmark your own pages on the same domain since this might lead to a ban of your accounts on those bookmarking sites.

Have a nice day,

Submitting 40 site is not good. You can do max of 15 to 20 sites.

Who said that we can submit only 15-20?? i dont think so!!!
Keep doing your submission! It will work for you!

Cheers!

I'm extending that question, if we need more traffic how many bookmarking per URL is enough. Whether there are chances to be considered as spam if we do lot of bookmarking for a single URL.

Any effort to drive traffic through social bookmarking is considered Spam. Steer clear of these tactics..

You should submit your articles as often as possible, the more you get your message out there the more likely you are to drive traffic to your site and get noticed and ranked higher by the search engines.

I disagree.. the likelihood of articles getting picked up and shared is very low (unless they are really, really good). I don't think Social Bookmarking can be considered as a legitimate way of driving qualified traffic. The best most people will get is a small spike of unqualified traffic and a few links. Not exactly ideal for generating sales or whatever you are after.

The biggest factor in being able to generate a high volume of traffic through social bookmarking is Quality of content. But even with that, you'll only get a small percent of qualified leads. In conclusion, social bookmarking for traffic (and links) is a waste of time. Sorry folks :)

No there is no harm in submitting 40 different social bookmarking sites. But one thing you must consider that the text, I mean the description you write should not be the same in all places. Try to write something different from other places. But that also need to be very relevant with your posting.

you can build your links everyday. submit your links on all marketing avenues, not just social bookmarking sites, you can also do blog commenting, article submission, social networking and directory submission.

ya i think 10 to 15 is healthy for a day ..

i am agree with jgand you should submit your article as often as possible it will help you to get traffic on your article.

I Book mark mine usually 9 or 10, it really owrks

You can submit 40 social bookmarking site in one day. T think there is no limit is submission per day.

The more the better, but you have to participate on other techniques as well like article submission, blog commenting, press release, etc.

You can submit your link on many book marking site, but you cant submit same link on same site once again.

Choose the best 10 social bookmarking sites and try to change the title or description on each post if its possible (some sites allow you to alter titles, tags and description). I also agree on article marketing to go with this SEO strategy.

I have a plugin on my wordpress "AddtoAny" which allows me to add my posts to all of my social networks pretty easy. My users can do the same, this is pretty standard on blogs now. I usually submit each article to about 7 social networks per day : )

Excess of anything is harmful so it is good to if you do social bookmarking on daily basis rather submitting in bulk in one day. You can add one page everyday for getting good results from bookmarkings.

Hi,
I think submission in 10 useful and popular social bookmarking sites is better compare to submit in 40 non popular sites. It's save your time and will be more helpful to increase traffic.

Daily 10 will work and you will not considered as a spammer....

I usually work up to 20-30 per day and i didn't find any problem.

I usually submit around 30-40 everyday and i am getting good results from it.
