20 Do-Follow Social Bookmarking Sites That Actually Work (and how to bookmark QUICKLY)

Thanks Caroline… The amount of work here is amazing! The DO-Follow is crucial in building up those backlinks and in turn gaining in popularity on google PR. I will be bookmarking this post and using it as a bookmarking guideline.

Hi Caroline.

i get here stumbling.

Very nice article!.

I only disagree with you on one point: Social marketing on no-follow sites can be helpful too: if your article is really good, some blogers would read it and link to you. I’m doing that rigth now!

This has cleared up a lot of the mystery surrounding social bookmarking for me - clearly I have much to learn as I’d only heard of Furl and AskJeeves. Thanks for this useful post.

Caroline,
You continue to be a wealth of knowledge. I really don’t know how you do it - but the information you provide helps us all to harness the power of the web.

Caroline -

Those are all good ones, thanks!

-OT

I really don’t agree with this advice, some sites will ban you for using them in this way. I remember when Digg first started everybody was adding stories for links and then they banned all our sites. 6 months later when Digg was huge everybody else could get on the front page except people who spammed it early on.

Surely the idea of social bookmarking is to get real links from real sites? I can’t imagine Google counting links from these sites very much.

Also blinklist has nofollow as far as I can see.

Check out this FireFox plugin Caroline, it also helps in automating stuff. You just have to know a little coding: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3863

The name is iOpus iMacros.

Thanks for all of this information. I’m focusing on a few of these sites and developing friends and a community there. Now that I’ve been on DIGG longer, I can spot a “spam” message a mile away, and that helps me to know and learn how to create truly useful content.

What are the traffic results you’re getting from the social bookmarking?

What is it with you and toenail clipping - LOL

@Patrick, I take your point entirely, spamming bookmark sites is a really bad idea!

But Caroline totally knows this and with all respect that’s NOT what she said…

She said bookmarking articles on your site “over time” and using a tool to make that easier when you do.

But it’s a point well worth repeating.

You MUST MUST MUST do “responsible” bookmarking and you should REALLY REALLY REALLY not only book your own sites.

You need to get a good REPUTATION as a bookmark reviewer and that means ranking relevant links, with real reviews on a RANGE of sites, not just your own.

Also as Caroline said, you need to LOOK at the bookmark site and make sure the content you are suggesting (not just your own) is relevant to them and in their style, like picking the most appropriate category.

But again, great point Patrick, for any one else just skimming through this article. Bookmark responsibly and with variety.

I also agree with Facundo.
Although follow links may give you the fastest buck SEO, you cannot ignore a valuable audience just because a site uses no follow.
In actual fact it’s Furony.com. The sites with no follow are probably better value as they are real, as they are not spammed by backlink hunters.
As a person who genuinely wanted something, which bookmark site would you end up actually using?

But I am very worried about all these toe nail clippings! Is this a code name for some secret society of what? (LOL joke)

But I am never lending you a hot water bottle Caroline!

Peter

Good to see you’re back and blogging Caroline :) This is just a great post, I’m sure most of us will use these tips!

-Mike

Hi Caroline, Thanks for the valuable info as usual! SocialPoster is similar to SocialMarker but I haven’t used it. Can you tell if there is a difference between them?

Thanks, that’s some useful info, I may actually have to follow your advice and do it. I’ve been following your blog for awhile now, and you’ve had some amazing success. Your subscriber count is very impressive. Best of luck.

I may have to work with this a while, been a rough week for a technology challenged blogger like myself

I’ve been meaning to sign up with more social bookmarking sites (to get more traffic - but if they are dofollow, then that’s even more reason to do so).

I was going to use OnlyWire which seems to be similar to SocialMarker (but it only has 8 of the sites you listed). Thanks for making me aware of SocialMarker. I’ll have to look into both of these further.

Wow Caroline - this is something new for me and gives me some work to do! You sure do provide great information and comprehensive detail. Thank you!

Thanks Caroline.

Another gem like commenting strategy.

Very much appreciated.

Wow. Fantastic info Caroline. Thanks.

I do, however, wonder about the delicious no-follow statement you’re making — I’m sure you’re correct, but why is it that my Google Alerts send me pages from delicious and what are apparently links from delicious taggers?

It seems to me Google is following them, no?

This is an awesome post indeed. Just be very careful. It is true that you can get penalized for self-bookmarking, spam or not, and it is my understanding that they don’t really care how many “other” sites you bookmark in between.

Another post with great value Caroline! I’m stumbling it.

Caroline - this is just the article I needed to be working “smartly” - thanks - I love my subscription to your blog since it’s always got practical tips. Is your blog a “do follow” that gives backlinks. - Cyndee Haydon

That’s a nice list Caroline!

And I agree with other commentators above that even no follow link on major sites can be valuable. They have the potential to bring a lot of indirect backlinks to your blog!

One more thing I have observed in my Google webmaster account is, Google follow even no-follow links. It is still not known, whether they give any weightage to it or not!

Hi Caroline,

Hope you are doing better,

A little tip when bookmarking that can be of benefit when done RESPONSIBLY and not all the time is to use more than one tag (2-3) where available. Each tag is basically another page.

Also in regards to those in question about if a site has no-follow or not, a good add on for firefox is SEOquake.

It has an option than put a thin line through a link if it is a no-follow plus give some other good info about the site

Nice of you to list the dofollow social bookmarking sites. Normally a list like that will just list out the norm but you take it a step further by listing dofollow sites.

You are really providing informative content.

Wow, Caroline - I’ve never done this before and you’ve certainly given me a lot of work to get caught up on! In the most recent PR update (and the first since my new domain), I didn’t get the kind of rankings for my internal pages that I’d hoped for. Now I have a better solution of increasing my backlinks. Thanks tons! :)

Cyndee Haydon: Carolines links are no-follow.

@Patrick, This was the very issue I discussed a few weeks back in my post about the differences between social bookmarking and story submission. The key difference is that with story submission like Digg, you are unloading your content onto other people for their approval. Using PURELY bookmarking sites, your bookmarks are your own for you to do with as you please.

@Deborah, funnily enough I’ve not actually done this very much yet! I don’t use this strategy for this blog but I have been experimenting with it for my niche site which I haven’t done much with yet so I’ve just bookmarked about 5 pages so far so I don’t have much traffic info to report yet.

@Peter, actually that is not what I’m saying at all - this is NOT STORY SUBMISSION, you don’t need to get approval from the sites, check the relevancy (well you do if the bookmarking site has a specific niche) - you just bookmark your chosen pages and that’s it.

@Vanessa, there’s lots of different services to automate the submissions - Social Poster, Social Marker, OnlyWire and they all do pretty much the same thing but in slightly different ways. Just uses the one(s) you are most comfortable with.

@Craig, No Google Alerts is different. When you set up an alert (I have one for “twitter” for example) then Google uses that as a search query and will send you an email of everything that matches that query. That is not the same as following a link when doing it’s crawl and passing on link-juice which can increase search authority. Totally different thing entirely.

@Clearwater, no I do not use do-follow links in my comments section if that’s what you mean :)

@Gnaka, yes that is true that it is not really known what the “nofollow” tag does and also, other search engines such as Yahoo ignore it completely. However it takes time to do all this bookmarking so I figure by concentrating on the do-follow ones you’re getting more bang for your buck so to speak.

@Ron, I use the Firefox plugin SearchStatus which highlights all no-follow links in pink making them extremely obvious.

Thank you Caroline, this is a good article and valuble information.

Thanks for great social bookmarking information. I will subscribe to your RSS feed. I has been self bookmarking for a while and didn’t know that it was detrimental to Google placement. Keep the info coming.

Hey Caroline,

Great list, but one thing… I just had a look at Blinklist, and it looks like it’s a no-follow link to me…

Eric

I sent an email to StumbleUpon and asked them if stumbling my blog posts would be considered as spamming and the answer was yes!
I have been writing articles for Associated Content and submitted them all to different Bookmarking sites, I also bookmarked my blog (only the main URL).
After reading your post I will start bookmarking other blog’s posts and mix a few of my own (only the ones that give real info, not the toenail clippings!)

Hello

Nice collection of Top Bookmarking sites. I just came across another indian Bookmarking site.

http://www.Tagza.com

Mostly you will find every kind of links there.

Excellent list of do-follow bookmarks! If you have any more and new ones please consider adding them to do the list!

Thanks Caroline,
I have never heard of these sites, need to try some of them.

Hey here is one that I created last week.

Upchuckr.com I created a wordpress plugin already for the site.

It’s funny that I have come across this post on BumpZee (another do-follow community) just before I wanted to post a question about the fate of “no nofollow” movement among bloggers. I have supporter of removing nofollow in the blog comments, however I am starting to change my mind in that respect… So I may eventually remove them from my blog.

I hope that Google would just abolish nofollow completely and rely on some other method to attribute the importance of links and pages. Thanks for your post though- very informative.

Furl is using redirects, so the absence of nofollow is not that big of a deal.

I noticed however, that most of this pages are not cached by Google. While it is true that there are nonofollows, Google still cannot read the page :(

Thanks Caroline,

I was researching more about socialmarker and how to use it in the most beneficial way and I came across your post after i did a search on google.

I am so glad I did!

I am gathering infomation on Social bookmarking so that I can teach it to our group of beginners network marketers on the Internet.

I am going to download the MemoKeys software and subscribe by e-mail so that I don’t miss any valuable post you make from now on.

You are someone to definately follow and learn from.

I wanted to see which of the 24 sites I had to save to my favourites and manually submit to and so I started counting which ones were already in socialmarker.

I was able to find only 9 and not 13. Maybe they had deleted the other 4 since you posted this article? Or is it possible that some of the sites are known with other names as well?

This is a great article win a ton of useful information. Thanks so much for sharing what I am sure took you hours of research.

Thank you for the list, and all the best for your Internet venture.

Great list! I’m using a few of them already; will have to check out the rest.

Quick question: (This will make me sound like a newbie) How do you tell if a site has ‘nofollow’ tags or not? Not knowing how to do this on my own makes a list like this even more valuable.

BTW: I found this post through a link on another site on Digg. I don’t just use these sites for promoting my stuff - I find lots of interesting stuff. By spending time on these places, I also stand out as a real community member rather than someone just promoting my own stuff.

Thanks,

Shane

I love this post. So much inspiring. I will use all of the tips. Thanks Caroline. You are Great.

Your Italian Fan,
Francesco

Awesome post. I am going to do this tonight!

@Diyana, yeah the problem with this kind of post is that it can become out of date almost as soon as it is written.

@Shane, I use a plugin called “search status” which has an option to highlight nofollow links in a bright pink background. There are other plugins that do the same thing.

hi carol….great article. great tips. thank you, thank you & thanks again.

much of my marketing is done via videos posted to youtube, myspace & about 25 other video sites. as you know, these video sites assign a unique URL to each video.

do you reckon that posting these URL’s (with title, tags, etc.)to social bookmarking sites will increase the SE ranking of these videos?

thanks in advance for the professional advice. regards, joe

ps. all comments welcome.

@Joe, yes it should do - the idea is that you have a bunch of backlinks pointing to a page that are all tagged with a keyword and Google sees this and bosts the authority of that page as a result.

Hi, Caroline.

Good list!

However, I notice #13 (Xilnus) is no longer working. Going to the main page, I noticed the developer made a comment to the effect that the bookmarking service was just an experiment.

You may want to delete Xilnus from your posted list.

@Robert, hmm odd, it’s still working for me.

Great post Caroline, thanks very much for all the links to the tools. I’m currently creating accounts with all the sites that work with social maker, already done so with onlywire (doesn’t seem to work with most of them ;-(), i’ll be using both services since that for the most part they work with different sites.
Ok, off to bookmark this post ;-)

Thanks

Jayen

mmm, from what i can see “MyJeeves / Ask” doesn’t have any kind of public page where the Search Engines can find your links! Maybe i’m wrong??

Jayen

Is this the case

“I noticed however, that most of this pages are not cached by Google. While it is true that there are nonofollows, Google still cannot read the page”

Or will they get cached eventually.

seems like diigo doesn’t support dofollow? correct me if I’m wrong.
If we can suggest, you can add Jackool Social Bookmarker in the list.

you have interesting articles. thanks for posting it. I suscribe to you blog :) CHEERS!

I am the owner of SocialMarker.com.
The sites you emailed me will be added.

There are a lot of cool features to be added for SocialMarker which will make it the fastest and best social bookmarking tool!

I’m only now beginning to explore social book marking as a means of improving page rank. Needless to say I greatly appreciate the value of experience represented on this blog. I wish to thank Caroline for the excellent job she’s done in pulling all this info together. I’ll be subscribing and look forward to more great posts.

I tried the socialmarker.com software- pretty cool!!!!

Hi Caroline.

With http://www.socialmarking.com you can easily bookmark any site to 130+ social bookmarking services. It also have buttons and blog plugins.

@Sorin, ahh that’s great news! I think I will need to revisit this post and update it with the latest information as contained in the comments here.

Nice lists but some of this are nofollow…

Nice list, Thanks Caroline!

Hi Caroline,

This is a great article about how to achieve more links with bookmarking. Very helpful.

Awesome list and explanation of social bookmarking and how to make the best use of them.

Until just now I had completely overlooked whether or not those sites links were follow or no follow. I can’t believe I wasn’t even thinking about that. Good tips.

@Loretta, well even a no-follow link can be useful to some extent because Google is not the *only* search engine around and some of the others ignore that tag. And of course a link can always be found by humans too.

Very nice list. I have bookmarked this site and hope to use that list for my reference and for my work too.

Very helpful list Caroline, I didn’t realize that some of the bookmarking sites were no follow.

Thanks Caroline, this social marker tool seems to cut down the time to add to all the sites.

Thanks for the list Caroline.

Is your blog a do-follow blog ? :)

also how can we find if a blog is dofollow or nofollow?

Thank you for your article. I loved it and will have to bookmark your site. I have tried the social bookmark site. As soon as I submit something it sends me to propeller and I feel like I am on a different site. It is also asking me to submit and article. What how did I go from a bookmark to an article. I really can’t find any info on what is happening. I have contacted the owner of social bookmarking. Sounds like a great thing, just wish I could figure it out.

Also… Do you know… Do you have to go to each of the bookmark sites first and register?

excellent article and i will visit the dofollow links and try them out .

Excellent post, i have seen dofollow blog list, but first time getting this extra ordinary list of dofollow social book marking websites.
In short excellent.

Caroline, you done a great job,
Thanks to Kip also for giving another 130 reference.
Thanks for starting dofollow SB movement.
Regards,
James.

@Faraz, no mine is not a do-follow blog. One of the ways in which you can easily check is by using the Firefox browser and installing a plugin called “search status” - this has an option to highlight nofollow links in a bright pink background which makes it very obvious.

@Bridgette, yes you do have to register first with all the sites that you want to use - they are “your bookmarks” remember so you need an account.

Yes, I am doing that now. It is taking quite a bit of time. How about the question about the social bookmark site sending you to propeller? Anyone else having that. It also asks about the article, instead of bookmark. Making me think I am not in the correct place.

The article is great by the way.

No wonder my competitors are getting ahead of me. ;)

Hi guys!

I have been able to add almost every dofollow site listed here.

And to make things better I have added an option to select just dofollow websites for submissions.

Caroline, it’s great resources for social book marking websites, even those who place comments are also great resources for social book marking.
Use this link may helpful reources for visitors.

Question: Using social marker, will all of the bookmarks have the same anchor text?

Fire Town’s last blog post..ebay boycott begins

No wonder my competitors are getting ahead of me. ;)

Excellent list. I’m taking a look at all the sites mentioned

Any reason you use SocialMarker instead of OnlyWire? It seems SocialMarker has more sites, but OnlyWire is the easiest. Enter a little text, one click and done! I know, not as many sites, but the ones there from your list have very high PageRank. Any thoughts? Or does quantity win the day with this strategy? Thanks!

Tom’s last blog post..We Are Free of the Past

I have no preferece either way, whatever is clever :)

well first of all thanks for this and the great link for social marker too bad some of the bookmarking sites are down

When using social marker, don´t you use the same anchor in all social bookmarking sites?

Mike Dammann’s last blog post..Ghost Busters

Thanks, Caroline. Terrific, useful list and common sense advice as always. It is a pity that some of the so-called ‘gurus’ encourage people to open up to 40 accounts at each site to get more links! If that isn’t spamming, I don’t know what is. In the end, such irresponsibility is going to spoil it for all of us. Glad you have a different take on things. If we use these services in a responsible way, we can all build stronger sites over the long-term.

A few folks have mentioned Onlywire but I don’t think that they have made one advantage clear.

Once you have an OnlyWire acvcount you enter your login details for the site they list and then just add a few lines for each page you wish to mark. Once you submit your stored logins are used to automatically access the sites in their list.

At the moment the following site from your list above can be done with a single click from OnlyWire.

Blinklist
Furl
Backflip
Bobsonomy
RawSugar
Spurl
Xilnus
Diigo

It is a shame OnlyWire hasn’t been expanded since it started but it may be to do with the interfacing to the various log ins.

Hope that helps

Thanks for the list Caroline. There are so many SB sites so it is useful to find the ones that are working for others.

Guru Bob

These are not split between DoFollow and NoFDollow but it is the largest list of We2.0 site I know of

http://www.allthingsweb2.com/

Worth a look for 2.0 niche sites.

While searching on internet I found your blog very interesting. Thanks for posting the list of Social Bookmarking sites.

Thanks for giving information of dofollow social bookmark sites. I believe that dofollow social bookmark sites will be more popular than nofollow social bookmark in the future because of giving backlinks to visitors or the members. Let’s promote dofollow SB!

very good idea, learn much from you.

Jon_H’s last blog post..Horton Hears an HGH

thanks so much for this post.. i keep on coming back to this page as my reference… I never grew tired of reading it again and again and again!

THanks again mate!

Caroline,

Thanks for the list. I found this post while ago and decided to work on your suggestions. They were right on target.

One thing I found out is that even though Delicio.us does not allow links to be followed, most smaller social bookmark sites allow you to import your bookmarks from them. So I tried for the heck of experimenting and realized that my Delicio.us bookmarks can be replicated automatically in several other sites.

Now, my question for you is: 1) Could that be considered spamming if done at a mass scale? Let’s say 4-5 different accounts from different people, with different IP’s? I would think so. 2) Would this method be effective to get links even though a massive increase of links from social bookmarks can be filtered out by Google and or penalized. 3)What if you link ratio gets unbalance by the presence of too many auto generated links like the ones from social bookmarks?

Your thoughts are appreciated

Kind regards,

BTW, I forgot to say thanks for the tip on the MemoKeys II Lite. Terrific little peace of software that has been helping me a lot to automatize all kinds of tasks. Cannot live without it now. lol

Global Fusion’s last blog post..Lucuma - Information, Benefits and Uses

I think you know the answer to a) ;-)

I believe that links are only of use if they are form the path for regular spider visits and many posts to Web 2.0 as simple too deep to fall into this category. Look at your logs to see where spidering is coming from. Finding a few well spidered pages to post on will do you more good than hundreds of un-indexed posts.

@Global Fusion, actually that’s a good point about Delicious. Another point is that many of the Delicious links get re-posted elsewhere and those other sites are sometimes do-follow.

To answer your question - yes if you use multiple accounts I would consider that spamming. And frankly, why bother? If you posted content on a daily basis and used this method on every post then you would be creating over 700 links (30×24) a month for your site. That should be enough.

And yes if this is the only link building strategy you use, it may look weird to Google. If you are developing real content that attracts links naturally and doing other things as well then mixing in a bit of this shoudn’t be a problem. But I think that taking things to the extreme and trying to do them on a ‘mass scale’ is always a bad idea.

Nice post, I’ve read this topic sometime ago but reluctant to apply it but now, with the tool you mentioned I’ll give it a try.

Thanks and will come back to read more.

Bookmark Tracker is no longer “do follow.” They are using dynamic links.

Just found your site, must give the MemoKeys II a try, it looks really handy.
Thanks

I have already left a comment on this post but couldn’t resist doing it again. There’s a ton of so called Gurus out there that sell over hyped, often over priced information.

Few Gurus give the kind of specific useful information which Caroline generously and freely offers in this article. As someone with lots of real world business experience I appreciate real value when I see it and what Caroline offers here is not only real but also really valuable.

Congratulations to Caroline for laying down a trail which is easy to follow and actually leads somewhere.

Fantastic post. You know the property maxim… location, location, location? Well, on the internet if you are in the business of creating content, the maxim should be bookmark, bookmark, bookmark!

Thanks for your well researched article. I just followed your tips and got to bookmark to over 50 sites in just 1 hour on a slow connection.
Marketing tools

I actually have a theory that Google pays no attention to the “no-follow” tag anyway. As an experiment I uploaded a new site with no backlinks, posted it to a Delicious account, and lo and behold, watched as it got indexed a few weeks later. Anyone else have similar experiences?

Thanks for this information I have been looking for which sites follow for 2 weeks and you dropped it in my lap.

@Making money online
To detect dofollow or nofollow you can use firefox plugin: Search Status or Seo For Firefox.

@Caroline Middlebrook
Why don’t you use Brians Threaded Comments so we can reply other comments easily

Ebook’s last blog post..Feed Power - How To Do Everything with Feed Burner

@Ebook, the main reason that I don’t use threaded comments is that I would bloat out the comment count with my own replies and I don’t want to do that. The way I do it now I reply to a whole bunch of people using the @name notation and if I had threaded comments I would have to do them all individually.

Great list. Thanks.

I also see in Yahoo backlinks Reddit, StumbleUpon, Mixx, Searchles and I think Magnolia, too.

David Leonhardt’s last blog post..5 Reasons to Shorten Your URLs

@David, Reddit and Mixx are social NEWS sites, not bookmarking sites. These are different beasts and should be treated with care. As for StumbleUpon - if you submit all your stuff to SU as you would bookmark them as shown here your domain will be blacklisted!

Thanks so much for this list. It is very helpful. Provided a couple bookmarking sites I did not know about. Quality Content here. Thanks again

Thanks for the great article, Caroline. There’s one thing regarding the no-follow tags in your comments section. I use SearchStatus plugin myself, so I can see that the URLs that we include in our comments are indeed marked in pink, BUT our name is not. This makes me wonder because our name on the left of our post is also a link to our website (provided we enter one when we post our comments). My assumption is that the no-follow tag is only for the comments’ space and our names are do-follow. Is that right?

Gio Suryo’s last blog post..American Idol Top 8 Results Show

By the way, I see that Yaro Starak was visiting your blog earlier. And you are even mentioned by Shoemoney on his blog sometime ago. I guess all those hard work do pay off.

I think social bookmarking is a great way to build backlinks to your site but I find that it is kind of like cutting corners in SEO development because a lot of social bookmarking pages/profiles provide nothing but backlinks .

@Gio, hmmmm I could have sworn my blog was nofollow!! But you’re right - I’ll have to check my theme. That would certainly explain the increase in spam comments recently hehe.

And yeah it’s nice to see Yaro stop by from time to time!

Caroline, I see that you got the comment posters’ name part no-followed. Now I rather regret that I told you about it (just kidding, LOL). I just hope the others won’t hate me for it ;)

@Gio, actually I’m really glad you did. I never wanted to be dofollow as it attracts too much spam from the automated comment software. It turned out to be my Gravatar plugin which is a shame really as I liked the little pics! I’ll try and find another one.

Hi Caroline, Thanks for Such a a Nice List of SB websites.
Still it was earlier about to 24, am i right?
And Here Spurl.net, is not working since very long time, because of heavy spam attacks. If you can find out more SB websites than it will be great for me.

Given Very valuable Information Thank YOu

@Ami, yeah it was 24 at first but I actually had to remove 8 of them in my update! But I found some new ones to bring it up to 21. That’s the trouble with this kind of post - it’s always out of date!

Many thanks for info. So useful for me.

well first of all thanks for this and the great link for social marker too

thanks a lot Caroline and thanks for great links

@Pete, this list is for people to be able to bookmark *any* of their own content. I notice that your site seems to be specific to businesses in the UK so it is not really suitable. I wouldn’t want to responsible for your site getting a ton of off-topic bookmarks!

This is a nice list. I will definitely be using it later on. Thanks Caroline :-)!

I’m only now beginning to explore social book marking as a means of improving page rank. Needless to say I greatly appreciate the value of experience represented on this blog.

Thanks Caroline,
I have found your ‘Social Marker’ and Firefox Tabs tips very useful. Thanks for the excellent article.

what do you think about bookmarkingdemon

Caroline, how confident are you that many links from a domain is valuable? I wonder if the value of 20 links from the same domain pales in comparison to 1 link from 20 sites. Perhaps it’s not worth the time to bookmark all of your posts?

I’m glad that you’ve updated the list. I always refer to this post for verification of dofollow social bookmarking sites.

Second Story Gamers last blog post..Added Do Follow Plugin

This is an excellent article which contains very important information. I so wish the spammers didn’t spoil things and cause much of the benefits to be taken away but it is good to see that some of the social bookmarkling sites still do follow.

One way backlinks to the pages of a domain give it authority in Google over time. One strategy to gain these backlinks is to bookmark your content in social marking sites that do not use the ‘nofollow’ tag.

Hi Caroline,

many thanks for the list - hadn’t heard of Yattle before - like the name so will check this one out.

Have added you to my bumper list of do follow resources

chriss last blog post..Do follow blogs and resources - the bumper list

nice tools, downloaded the memokeys, it is way faster than my firefox plugin since it uses shortcut keys. great tools. thanks

spurl.net, for me, is not user-friendly. It doesn’t have the clear guide on how to start bookmarking the websites. Unlike Digg, Spurl is not organized. I registered there and until now I have no idea how to use the website.

Thanks for the list. Upchukr is now PR4

Awesome list caronline. Nice to post book marks in valuable dofollow SB sites, which gives traffic with link juice too.

Lovely post… do realize the importance of do follow tag and links…. also the tools for socaial bookmarking are good find…
