Social Bookmark - Adding social bookmark links in your blog or web site makes it easy for readers to save lots of and share your articles. But once you have decided to add social bookmarking buttons, you have to decide how to add social bookmarking on your site.
Start 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 them visibly, with checkboxes. Finally, it is possible to send your user to a page which lists every one of the sharing options. Let's examine these options at length to complete our how you can of social bookmarking.
If you have a button with a drop down menu, you will be taking up less space on your page layout, that is a positive, but it is going to be less visible, so that you could lose some potential links on social bookmarking sites. I would say that if you decide to list them all visibly, with checkboxes, you'll have to choose fewer sites. I will discuss this farther on in the post, but first I would like to examine the third option, having all the sharing options on another page. This option lets you 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 a huge selection of social bookmarking sites on the Internet, so you have to choose the most relevant ones for your niche. Take into account that people like locating the site of their choice first, so a certain placement reveals your adherence to one site or the other. Small decisions, or decisions that are apparently small, can provide you with or take away links.
Sometimes, choosing a smaller site on the larger one is better, considering that the community of smaller sites is usually more loyal (and pickier), and can see your choice like a positive, making them more prone to link posts appearing on your own site.
So what about that third option? Can it be good?
Social Bookmark - Well, it is not great in my experience. Only very, very technologically minded people wish to have that many options. Most visitors on your website will be happier if it is easy to use instead of too complete. There is such a thing as over-optimizing. One other thing take into account is that more pages means an increased click through rate and therefore lots more people dropping out of the process. And when they've shared this post, they might find it uncomfortable to go back to your site and you may be losing visitors who might have otherwise continued browsing and ultimately, buying.
Hope this how you can of social bookmarking was useful.
