Bookmarking Sites Deliver Heavy Traffic

Writing by Nick Stamoulis on Thursday, 3 of May , 2007 at 9:02 am

Yesterday we talked about Aftervote, a meta social search engine. I reviewed it, if you’ll remember, and liked it. Well, this morning I found a great article on SiteProNews.

I’m not going to recant the whole article for you now, but the gist was the top 10 places to get traffic online. Of course, we all know about Google so that’s not in the list. But I wasn’t a bit surprised to find that 9 of the top 10 are all social bookmarking sites, or news sites with bookmarking capabilities. The other one is an article directory. Here’s the list:

1. Digg.com
2. Netscape.com
3. Ezinearticles.com
4. Del.icio.us
5. StumbleUpon.com
6. Reddit.com
7. Slashdot.org
8. BlinkList.com
9. Furl.net
10. Squidoo.com

I’m not sure if this list is definitive. I don’t even know how the author came up with it, what methodology he used. But I am convinced that getting your blog post, web pages and articles bookmarked will drive traffic to your websites. If you don’t have a bookmarking tag on your blog or website then you’re missing out.
