Short answer: there is no hard numeric limit set by search engines. Quality, relevance and natural timing matter far more than raw counts. Google’s guidance treats bulk, automated or paid link schemes as manipulative, so avoid anything that looks like mass submission or spam ().

Directories

  • Use only a few well‑chosen, relevant directories (niche or industry directories, and authoritative local citations for businesses).
  • Fill out profiles completely and keep NAP (name, address, phone) consistent for local sites.
  • Skip low‑quality “directory farms” and mass submission services — those add little value and can dilute your profile.

Social bookmarking / sharing

  • Treat bookmarking as a distribution and discovery tactic, not a pure SEO shortcut. Many bookmarking sites use nofollow, so the primary value is traffic and the chance that real sites will link.
  • Post on platforms with real audiences and add context (title, summary, tags) so bookmarks can be found and engaged with.

Practical approach (safe, conservative)

  • New site launch: a handful of high‑quality directory entries (1–5) and a few meaningful social shares/bookmarks spread over days.
  • Ongoing: focus on earning editorial links and steady, natural mentions rather than blasting dozens of low-value entries in one week. Rapid spikes in link velocity look unnatural.

Monitoring and cautions

  • Watch Google Search Console for manual actions or unnatural link warnings and audit backlinks periodically with a backlink tool.
  • If a directory or bookmark feels spammy, don’t use it. Combine social bookmarking with content that earns organic links. This keeps risk low while preserving the traffic and discovery benefits that and were pointing to.
