Trying to get more traffic to your website? You can use social bookmarking tools like SocialMarker to make it easier to promote your site on multiple websites. Follow these steps to use SocialMarker to bookmark your site to multiple Web 2.0 sites.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Internet access
  • Free accounts to bookmarking sites
  • Website link to promote
  1. Step 1

    Go to SocialMarker at socialmarker.com. In the middle of the page on the left, under “How to use it?” drag the small image/button with your mouse to your bookmarks toolbar.

  2. Step 2

    On the right side, select the social bookmarking sites you want to submit to. Click on “None” to remove all of the check boxes. Click on the check boxes for each site to submit. Start with a few sites to test it out.

  3. Step 3

    Sign up for free accounts at the social bookmarking sites you want to start with. Open another browser window and visit each website to sign up for a free account.

  4. Step 4

    Return to SocialMarker.com. Confirm that the bookmarking sites you want to submit to are checked. Complete the short form on the top with your “Bookmark details.” For tags, enter keywords separated by commas.

  5. Step 5

    Click on the “Submit” tab on the top right. SocialMarker will open the first bookmarking site inside a frame in the window. SocialMarker makes it easy to visit multiple bookmarking sites at once. However, you’ll need to log in to each website to submit your website. You may need to enter your tags or description again and click the “Submit” or “Add” button.

  6. Step 6

    Continue to log in to each site, complete the short form and submit. Then click “Next” on the top tab. When you are done, you’ll be returned to the SocialMarker homepage.

Tips & Warnings
  • To go forward or skip a bookmarking website while submitting, click on the “Next” tab on the top right while you are in the SocialMarker window. Keep a list of login/passwords, tags, descriptions and websites so you can copy and paste into each website to speed the process. Try a manageable number of sites for speed before you try to submit to all of the bookmarking sites.
