People who are currently using a social bookmarking site or sites already understand the great benefits that they can bring not only to your blogs and websites but your business as well.

Let me first explain what social bookmarking is for all of you that may not already know. Social bookmarking will bring your blog or website more traffic. As an internet marketer this is exactly what you want..more traffic to your site.

Every link that you leave on these social bookmarking sites will bring traffic back to the directed site. As you begin to submit your sites to these bookmarking sites (Digg, Twitter, Delicious, Stumbeupon-just to name a few) your site will benefit by moving up in the rankings for search engines such as Google and Yahoo.

How do you use social bookmarking?

First you need to find a social bookmarking site that you would like to become a member of. The registrations process for these sites it usually quick and painless, so just do a search in Google and pick a site that you like.

After you have signed up to these social sites you may begin to submit links to your blogs, squidoo lenses, or whatever you would like to bookmark. I have found that the easiest way to do this is to:

First, sign into the bookmarking site and click to submit/ enter new site.

Next, when asked to do so just fill in the form the bookmarking site provides you. This is where you will need to enter the website information, URL and a quick comment about the site you are marking just to let others know where they will be directed to.

That's it! You have bookmarked your first site.

Keep in mind that these sites don't like it much when you try to add a whole bunch of your own websites at one time, therefore, it is a good idea to make some friends on these sites that can assist you in adding your web pages and in return you may do the same for them.

So start bookmarking and you will be able to watch as your site/blog begins to rise in the search engines as more and more people begin to find your pages.
