Here is a list of 70 + Social News and Bookmark Websites. The Social revolution is hot on the net and these sites are great Internet Marketing Strategies in promoting your websites and content.

Submit your website content and get backlinks (from do-follow link sites), promote your websites and expose your stuff to high traffic platforms.

Within these Sites there are two types, News and Bookmark.

The News sites, like Digg, basically allow you to submit news type stories and articles from your website to theirs and the members vote for them, the more votes the more exposure your submitted content gets.

The Bookmark sites are where you submit content/websites as a bookmark and the bookmark can be marked public so that other site members have access to your profile, bookmarks and a link to your sites.

You should also add these site’s “add” buttons in your own sites so your visitors are given the opportunity to vote from within your own sites. You can get the buttons individually by visiting the respective sites one by one, or you can add an all in one bookmark that you can get the code for at AddThis. You can see this button at the bottom of each of my posts.

I have added pertinent details, like Best!, News or Bookmark, as well as some pertinent Category specifics, so you can pick and choose what fits within your niches/themes.

If you do nothing else you should check out and submit your sites to the sites marked Best! (when applicable for your content as per categories).

I recommend that you use the same user name and password when you sign up, this way you don’t have to store and remember so many different profiles.

You can avoid having to submit to some of these sites one-by-one by submitting on auto pilot via Social Poster, which is free and allows mainstreamed submission from within their website and saves loads of time. They do not submit to all sites.

I use Social Bookmarking Submission Service to submit for me, it’s a great service, really saves a lot of time and very affordable.

DO-FOLLOW BACKLINK SOCIAL WEBSITES

Qassia – Best! PR5 – This one is really great, 100% do-follow. At Qassia you have to add articles or snippets of content, they call “Intel” on any topic and at the end of each of those you get a do-follow backlink to the site of your choice. You can add your pre-published articles or original stuff and earn Qassia dollars. The content can even be a couple of paragraphs, nothing fancy is required.

Spotback – Best! PR5 – Spotback has cool widgets to add to your blogs and websites for rating your content, simple little star boxes (see mine at the end of the post). Readers do not have to leave your blog, once they rate it, it automatically goes to Spotback! Also mouse over it and checkout how you can add tags without leaving the blog. Spotback has several options for widgets, as well as a Wordpress plug-in.

Very easy submit, picks up Meta Tags and has a bookmarklet for browsers. A human powered social search engine with 100% do-follow links, add your home pages and all sub-pages, choose categories and tag with relevant keywords.

Social Median - Best! PR5

Easy submit with bookmarklet for browsers. The key is to join news networks that are relevant to your sites, and there are many of them, or you can create your own. When you submit your content the readers in those networks get emails with content updates. Votes on Socialmedian are called clips and it does not take too many clips to get on the front page. I always get lots of traffic from them and traffic that subscribes and buys, go check it out, there is a lot going on there.

Squidoo – Best! PR8

Build some keyword rich lenses related to your sites topics and put 100% do-follow backlinks on them to your sites. Many of my lenses are PR3+ because they piggy back on Squidoo’s page rank and the backlinks are very valuable.
