When it comes to getting your site found, nothing else works quite as well as a good social media and bookmarking campaign. The reason for this is because social bookmarking is considerably easy to do and there are ways to jump start it into high gear.

Assume for a minute you wrote one hundred pages of content. You might start advertising your site and if your lucky each page might get visited, but unlikely. You have to generate traffic to your site and the process of link submitting, directory submissions, and all the other techniques are not going to do it fast enough.

In comes social bookmarking sites. You sign up for a handful of these sites, bookmark your pages and a handful of other sites you like, and then, all of a sudden your site is getting traffic. Why?

Because there are millions of people already browsing those social bookmarking sites. Instead of trying to bring the traffic to your content, you have brought your content to the traffic source. The people on the sites will continue to bookmark your content if they found it to be useful and worthwhile.

Why do you think people setup stores near busy highways. Because that is where the traffic is. It is easier to get yourself out into the crowd then it is to bring the crowd in. People are resistant to sales techniques as it is. When they are brought to you they are already on the defensive against anything you may say.

Take the path of least resistance and bring yourself to them and provide quality, free content to them as a conversation opener. This will get your foot in the social community and then people will look more favorably on your content and sites.
