Social Bookmarking has been the most remarkable invention of the Web 2.0 world. Social Bookmarking web sites provides an invaluable facility of saving your bookmarks and favorite sites online for free. But Social Bookmarking web sites are considered little more valuable to webmasters than the normal users in my view. Well, they have quickly become an integrated part of SEO and one of the best way to get immediate traffic to your website.

1. Digg.com - This is personally my favorite for link building as Digg bookmarks are free from no-follow tag and is one of the most trusted way of getting each and every page of your site being indexed in Google as quickly as possible. Moreover, if you could get to the front page of Digg, you can generate thousands of unique visitors to your si9te that too in no time.
2. StumbleUpon.com - Well, if you don’t have link building as your main aim and just want quick traffic to your web site, this one is for you. StumbleUpon has been easily used by hundreds of webmasters to increase their traffic many folds and that too in no time. However, one thing that I have observed with StumbleUpon is that most of the traffic is from North America but yeah, most of them are unique. Adding to this, if you don’t have a real wonderful site, the visitors are not going to stay long on your website resulting in more Bounce Rate leading to lower conversions.
   Tip: Use as Many Relevant Tags as you can when submitting and see the difference.
3. Del.icio.us - Del.icio.us after being acquired by Yahoo have really made a huge impact in social bookmarking field. Probably, the only bookmarking web site that can give Digg.com some fear. However, Del.icio.us has no-follow tags in their bookmarking links giving you absolute no Search Engine advantage. However, if you can get to its front page, like Digg it can surely provide you with thousands of unique and quality traffic in no time.
