ADSENSE TIP TRICKS - How to get more backlinks and traffic -- while saving yourself valuable time each day

How to get more backlinks and traffic -- while saving yourself valuable time each dayBy Dwain Jeworski

If you're looking to attract hundreds of quality backlinks -- and 1000s of new visitors -- to your site, there's a great kind of FREE tool you need to know about.

I'm talking about "all-in-one" social bookmarking tools that allow you to post fresh content on your site to 30 or more of the 'Net's top social booking marketing sites... with just one click!

But maybe I should back up for a minute...

... In case you're confused by the term "social bookmarking," it's a lot simpler than you might think.

You know when you bookmark sites in your Internet browser, so you can easily return to them in the future? Well, social bookmarking is the online version of that.

Different social bookmarking sites -- such as Digg, del.icio.us, or reddit -- allow you to create an online collection of bookmarked sites that you can access from anywhere (a distinct advantage compared to the bookmarks that are stored only on your home or work computer!).

And what makes these bookmarking sites "social" is that other members can see how popular the different bookmarked sites are -- in terms of how many users have bookmarked them, or rating systems that allow users to say how useful they think the site is. The sites with the most bookmarks or the highest ratings tend to get seen by the most people.

... So what does this mean to you as an Internet marketer?

It's simple: the more social bookmarking sites you register your website or blog with, the more backlinks and organic traffic you'll end up getting from the users of those sites!

Plus, search engines LOVE links from social bookmarking sites -- so the more you get, the better your search ranking will be!

However, in order to get good results, you should aim to get your site registered with at least 30 of the 'Net's top bookmarking sites. And, as you might expect, it takes time to register your site with all those different sites.

... And it takes even more time to let those sites know whenever you post new content on your website or blog!

This is where those "all-in-one" social bookmarking tools come in... Because once you register with all the top bookmarking sites, you can add an "all-in-one" tool to your site and then let ALL your different social bookmarking sites know when you've got fresh content -- with just one simple click of a button!

The two "all-in-one" social bookmarking tools we tend to use most often here at IMC are socialmarker.com and addthis.com. Both of these tools allow you to add your site to 30+ social bookmarking sites.

Other advantages of using these tools include...


Their handy widgets make it easy for your visitors to bookmark your site and sign up for your RSS feed


The backlinks they give you increase your link popularity, which will boost your search engine rankings


You no longer need to add a separate widget on your site for each social bookmarking site you subscribe to


They offer useful statistics and information on how your visitors are sharing your content with others


... AND, using them means your new content will get indexed by Google in about 15 minutes or less!

So if you have a blog or a website full of content that you update regularly (which you should... a regular stream of fresh content is the best way to get the search engines to notice you), then make sure you check out socialmarker.com and addthis.com -- and put one of them on your site as soon as you can!

(I personally prefer socialmarker.com, but I know a lot of our mentors like addthis.com as well. I recommend you check out both to decide which will work best for you.)
