So, let's talk about Social Bookmarkers. Why does your blog need it? I feel that a successful blog should have social bookmarkers to give its visitors the flexibility to save your website in the most convenient way.

Having an RSS feed and a newsletter is not enough to bring back your viewers. You see, not every website surfer out there subscribe to them. I myself get my email flooded with all these update notifications. It takes me days, maybe even weeks before I'll get a chance to read them. By then, it's old news already. I prefer to keep track of my favourite sites through Technorati and Delicious. So, if you don't have these bookmarkers on your site, I might not be back again, unless I see you surfing through Blog Explosion or Blog Soldiers.

It's a good thing that blogs are now catching up on this concept. After all, this is an essential part of blog promotion. I only use the big social bookmarking sites, like Digg, Technorati and Delicious for my blogs. It's too easy to get carried away and put every single bookmarkers you can find. Your blog tends to get too cluttered and messy. For a list of bookmarkers and the codes to embed them on your blog, check out 3Spots.

I did, however, find a messy-icon fix while I was surfing for new social bookmarking sites. I dont know if anyone ever has used Socializeit.com, but it gives you one button for bookmarking. They give you a code to install on your site and when the button is clicked by your visitors, it takes them to a page where there are 60 bookmarking choices. Similar to what Feedburner has done to eliminate having a million feed buttons on your site.

If you use this site, or do use this site, don't forget to come back here and tell us how it's working for you. I know, I would like to know....
