Social Networking Strategies

Discussion in 'Social Networks' started by oldstocks, Feb 1, 2008.

    What are some good strategies for using the social networking sites to help market my site. I recently added a good bookmark button (AddThis.com) to the top of every page and am getting a few saves.

    Are there better ways to increase this? From my site? By other methods? I am looking for ethical solutions but effective ones!

    PM me or post here for others to learn! Also, check out my site (and bookmark me if you wish - I will gladly do the same for you)

    Push them a little bit to act by asking them to tell others. Don't put up just a link, button.

    Yeah addthis is great - but to get the ball rolling then click on all the services in addthis and add it yourself to your own social bookmark account

    wow that stumbleswap thing is pretty cool. I've never seen that before.

    In my opinion StumbleUpon traffic is by far the best social bookmaring traffic around

    I have added a few social bookmarking accounts to my name and will have to work on my website some more (never ending tweaks). Thanks for the input!

    Kennedy - Do you know how long Stumble Swap has been around? Does it really help? Just curious never heard of even "StumbleUponed" it:)

    Stumbleswap.com hasn't worked for me once.

    Don't forget to build your friends list on SU as well. This will help!
