    Yea I apologise. That tip was regurgitated from last year because 1. I’m Lazy and; 2. It still works.

    Do a Google search. There are many SBM sites out there…alot more than when I did that list.

    Use Alerts to determine where your resources are best spent.

    Do me a favor and let me know as well.

    I’ve been using these guys; http://sayseodesign.com/social-bookmarking.php

    Cheers,

    Gary

    Cool m8, I’ll let you know the results. But before I start “abusing” the system just one more question please.
    If I try this quick boost option, you mentioned the boosted ranks should last about 30 to 40 days, right? Why only this (if you continue submitting articles, etc? And after this time does the website get blacklisted or something, or if this is done at the same time as normal linking it will just work as a quick boost for a longer lasting linking campaign?
    Cheers

    Unless a Digg or Stumble type article takes off with some footing, and even when it does, it becomes ages material like any other page on a website. I think the algorithm triggers a sort of expiration date so to speak.

    Thanks Gary. But what happens to all your other efforts of long term linking, etc? Do they get lost after the SB experition date? Or you can continue doing your normal SEO? My fear is after the boost ends all the other SEO work (paid links) goes down the drain…

    Thanks

    Hi Gary

    You mention that you use sayseodesign for socialbookmarking, but which option would you recommend?

    Is the ‘submit to 125 social bookmark sites’ worth the money?

    Something that worries me about using a company that submits to 125 sites in a matter of days, is that google may see it as spam

    Is there is any possibility that using sayseodesign or similar services could actually harm a site?

    Ive only used the 125 package. Many that I saw they had done had several other votes so this may put it under the radar. I haven’t seen any negative results and I’ve used the technique for over 2 years. I do many other types of link building (which is how I classify this) so this may contributribute to operating under the radar.

    Hi Gary

    If I remember correctly, you mentioned at CAP, that google would be changing their ways in the future in that they would be focussing a bit less on back-links and more on the metrics, like number of pages viewed, time spent on the site and bounce rates, amongst others.

    You said that we will all need to become “authority sites”

    So, I wanted to ask you:

    What, exactly, do you see an “authority site” as, in terms of what google wants to see?

    and..

    From your experience, what sort of figures should we be aiming for in terms of metrics – that is, metrics like pages/visit, bounce rate, average time on site and nay others that you think will be important?

    I really appreciate any views you have on these questions

    Cheers

    Hi Dendrite,

    Sorry for the delay in responding…its been quite hectic here lately.

    Google says they look at several things, from the age of the URL and level content to the authority of the websites that link to you. Which is measure partially by the number of back link to the site linking to you and the same attributes as they look for in your site.

    The jury is still out on the metrics that you mention because Google just recently admitted that they look at bounce rates and CTR’s. What I would try as a test is to put a doorway page between your landing page and your referrer link (if your an affiliate) so that at least one page registers. Also nofollow the affiliate link and if possible change the redirect from 0 to at least 1.

    Both of these have proven successful but the testing is still in its early phase.

    Cheers
