Social Bookmark - Adding social bookmark links for your blog or internet site makes it easy for readers in order to save and share your content. But once you have decided to add social bookmarking buttons, you need to decide how to add social bookmark creating on your site.

Begin by asking yourself what your display choices are. You can have a share button with a drop down menu listing social bookmarking sites, or you can list all of them visibly, with checkboxes. Finally, you can send your user to some page which lists all the sharing options. Let's examine these options at length to complete our the way to of social bookmarking.

If you have a button with a drop down menu, you will be taking on less space on your page layout, the industry positive, but it will probably be less visible, so that you could lose some potential links on social bookmarking sites. I would say that if you choose to list them all visibly, with checkboxes, you'll have to choose fewer sites. I will discuss this farther on within the post, but first I would like to examine the third option, having every one of the sharing options on a different page. This option enables you to have all the options possible. That can bring me to my next point.

Social Bookmark - Then you have to ask yourself which sites to list first, and which to list at all. There are countless social bookmarking sites on the Internet, so you've to choose the most relevant ones for your niche. Take into account that people like locating the site of their choice first, so a specific placement reveals your adherence to at least one site or the other. Small decisions, or decisions which are apparently small, can present you with or take away links.

Sometimes, choosing a smaller site over a larger one is better, because the community of smaller sites is normally more loyal (and pickier), and will see your choice being a positive, making them prone to link posts appearing on your own site.

So what about that third option? Is it good?

Social Bookmark - Well, it isn't great in my experience. Only very, very technologically minded people want that many options. Most visitors in your website will be happier if it's easy to use instead of too complete. There's such a thing as over-optimizing. Another thing to take into account is that more pages means an increased click through rate and therefore more people dropping out of the process. And when they've shared this post, they might find it uncomfortable to return to your site and you may be losing a visitor who might have otherwise continued browsing and ultimately, making a purchase.

Hope this how to of social bookmarking was useful.
