Social bookmark trading is nothing new, it’s been happening ever
since social bookmarking sites grew in popularity. Lavalinx just
took the idea of exchanging bookmarks to a whole new level.
We created a system that makes social bookmarking, management and
exchange more efficient, easy and effective.
To help you better understand what we’re doing I have included a
few frequently asked questions and our response to each.
What is a Social Page?
A Lavalinx Social Page is any page in your site that you want
bookmarked in social sites. You can bookmark these pages yourself
with our easy-to-use bookmarking wizard, or you can initiate social
bookmarking trades with others and have them bookmark them.
Why should I bookmark my pages using Lavalinx?
Current bookmarking tools help you to effeciently bookmark your
own pages on multiple social sites, which is great if you want to
fill your social accounts with all of your own pages. The problem
with this is that, by bookmarking too many of your own pages,
you’ll eventually be marked as a spammer by most of the social
sites, and could get your account banned.
With Lavalinx you have the option of bookmarking your own pages,
or entering into social bookmark trades that would have other users
bookmark your pages. For social bookmarking, this gives Lavalinx a
huge advantage because now your social accounts will be filled with
diverse, interesting pages from other users, and you will be
getting other users to discover and vote on your pages.
How many social sites can be involved in a bookmark
exchange?
In a social bookmark exchange you are only limited by the number
of social sites you and your trade partner have. In a each trade
scenario an equal number of social sites are used for fairness in
trading. If you have 10 social sites and your trade partner has 10,
you can trade with up to 10 social sites in a single trade. If you
only had 4 social sites and your trade partner had 10, your trade
would be limited to 4 social sites.
Does social bookmarking help my organic rankings?
Yes! Most of the social sites that have been added to Lavalinx
give you a hard “dofollow” backlink.
Does Lavalinx automatically add links to social sites?
No. All links posted to social sites are made via a wizard that
populates your page information into a submission form. We make it
easy as possible, but it is not automated.
What’s the difference between a Public and Private social
bookmarking site in Lavalinx?
All social bookmarking sites in Lavalinx marked as “public” are
social sites that offer a public and spiderable user account.
Because these sites are spiderable Lavalinx can verify that social
bookmarks have been made or not. So, in a social bookmark exchange
we can verfiy that both parties fulfill their side of the
trade.
All social bookmarking sites in Lavalinx marked as “private” are
social sites that can be used for your own bookmarking, but cannot
be used in a social exchange.
Does Lavalinx keep track of the pages bookmarked?
Lavalinx will keep track of all the pages you bookmark yourself
and the bookmarks that are received via trades and exchanges.
Lavalinx also keeps track of which social sites your pages are
bookmarked on ie. StumbleUpon, Digg, Mixx etc.
How many social bookmarking sites can I submit to?
Right now Lavalinx has 45 social bookmarking sites, but we are
adding more weekly. We make every effort to add social sites that
will either have social traffic value, or SEO link value.
