Short answer: social bookmarking can drive discovery and short referral spikes, but it is not a standalone "best" solution for steady growth. For 's computer tips site, treat bookmarking as one channel in a mix that also includes on‑site SEO, targeted community outreach, and repeatable content updates — points already raised by , and .

Make bookmarking work by focusing on quality, not volume: pick pages that clearly solve a problem, write a benefit-first title and a one-line summary that matches visitor intent, choose 2-4 precise tags or keywords, and tailor the text to each community (no copy-paste blasts). Submit selectively and stagger posts so each submission has time to attract genuine clicks and comments.

Measure and iterate: tag bookmarked links so you can see which sites send engaged users. Example UTM pattern:

https://example.com/upgrade-ssd-windows?utm_source=bookmarksite&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=bookmark_test

Track sessions, bounce rate, time on page and conversions. If a source sends lots of visitors but little engagement, revise the title/summary or the landing page experience.

Troubleshooting and cautions: high-volume but low-quality visitors are common — 's observation about shallow clicks is typical. Convert casual visitors with a clear next step (printable checklist, content upgrade, or newsletter signup) and fix obvious issues first (page load, mismatched snippet, unclear value). Finally, avoid automated mass-submission and follow site rules to prevent flagging or wasted effort, echoing 's warning. Use bookmarking strategically, track results, and prioritize channels that repeatedly deliver engaged visitors.

You can also do other SEO methods that you can use to promote your site. You can also advertise your site through social networking sites like facebook and twitter. Blog posting, forum commenting and directory submission can also help in increasing traffic to your site.

StumbleUpon drives a lot of traffic based on interests, but this can be very random. So you may get a lot more hits with stumble, but 60% of those hits are people who won't even bother reading your article.

Maybe not the best one, but one of the most effective - for sure! You may submit your pages everyday, but try not to overdo, otherwise you may be considered as a spamm.

I really would not consider social bookmarking as the best way to increase traffic but it does certainly help
SEO still remains number one for long term results

Social bookmarking is one of the tactics used in Off-Page SEO, but I would not consider it the best way to increase traffic. THAT is debatable of course. Some people may consider it the best off page technique whereas others consider article writing and submitting the best. SO, it is subject to interpretation and of course self experience.

Hi,
Social bookmarking not a best way for increase traffic best it's useful to generate traffic if we do work on these sites properly and seriously but the bounce rate of the traffic can be very high.
