Social Bookmark - Adding social bookmark links to your blog or web site makes it easy for readers to save lots of and share your articles. But once you have decided to add social bookmarking buttons, you must decide how to add social bookmarking on your site.

Begin by asking yourself what your display option is. You can have a share button using a drop down menu listing social bookmarking sites, or you can list them visibly, with checkboxes. Finally, you are able to send your user with a page which lists all the sharing options. Let's examine these options in more detail to complete our the way to of social bookmarking.

If you have a button with a drop down menu, you will be trying out less space in your page layout, that is a positive, but it will be less visible, which means you could lose some potential links on bookmarking sites. I would say that if you choose to list them all visibly, with checkboxes, you will need to choose fewer sites. I'll discuss this farther on within the post, but first I would like to examine the third option, having all the sharing options on a separate page. This option enables you to have all the options possible. That can bring me to my next point.

Social Bookmark - Then you've to ask yourself which internet sites to list first, and which to list out at all. There are a huge selection of social bookmarking sites on the Internet, so you have to choose the most relevant ones to your niche. Take into account that people like finding the site of their choice first, so a specific placement reveals your adherence to 1 site or the other. Small decisions, or decisions which can be apparently small, can provide you with or take away links.

Sometimes, picking a smaller site more than a larger one is better, since the community of smaller sites is normally more loyal (and pickier), and will see your choice being a positive, making them more prone to link posts appearing in your site.

So what about this third option? Is it good?

Social Bookmark - Well, it is not great in my experience. Only very, very technologically minded people want that many options. Most visitors on your own website will be happier if it's easy to use instead of too complete. There is certainly such a thing as over-optimizing. Another thing to take into account is that more pages means a higher click through rate and therefore lots more people dropping out of the process. As soon as they've shared your posting, they might find it uncomfortable revisit your site and you may be losing a visitor who might have otherwise continued browsing and ultimately, purchasing.

Hope this the way to of social bookmarking was useful.
