I just purchased this software a few weeks ago to help increase the traffic to my website and blog, plus help clients do the same. I noticed that whenever I post a blog and then submitted it by hand to some of my favorite bookmarking sites like dig.com, reddit.com and stumbleupon.com, my traffic went up to at least 100 new visitors in addition to what I was already getting. I thought that was pretty cool but the only problem doing it by hand is it is time consuming and tedious. So I searched around on the internet to find some sort of software program that could do this quickly and easily and found Bookmarking Demon.
So far it is so good. The software submits my website pages or blog posts to around 50 out of 100 social bookmarking sites. This helps with search engine optimization because of the calculation that the engines use as a “vote”. Websites with your link pointing to a page on your site tells the engines your site is popular and social bookmarking is a part of that equation. I used it a couple of times with my blog posts and yes, my traffic did jump dramatically for that day. I even had someone from the UK contact me for design work. This leads me to believe the software program is working.
Any drawbacks? Well, the interface takes a bit getting used to and I haven’t even gone into the professional view yet, just stuck with the beginner mode. Another drawback is you still have to hand type in your keywords, title tag and url…but after that the submission is automatic and you just wait until it is finished. It gives you a report of the successful submissions at the end of the run so you can see just how many were submitted. It averages about 50 out of 100 which I say is still good because you will not catch me sitting at my computer tediously submitting my website or posts to 50 sites by hand. That is not what I want to spend my time doing!
My disclaimer….this software is NOT supposed to be used for spamming! It’s main purpose is to get high quality social bookmarking links going to your site so you get more traffic. I think it is best for people that have blogs and constantly changing content. You submit your content with the program and it gets out there faster, getting you traffic, customers, inquiries and sales!
Check out the bookmarking demon website, you can download it at the very end of the page, and you can also turn off the sound on the video…it’s kind of annoying!
