Social Marker is an incredible tool for any blog. It is a great way to save time, when your submitting your site to social media sites. Now, be careful with Stumbleupon, because they have a policy against submitting your own sites. But most of the sites, are ones like Digg, with a voting format. So it’s fine if you want to submit your own ones. The only time consuming part in this whole thing, is creating accounts on each of the sites. That would take Forever!
So what I did, is just to make accounts on the big ones, like digg, stumble, propeller, mix, reddit… That way you can just do the top 15 ones, and save alot of time. Most of the others ones won’t get you very much traffic anyway, so your really not missing anything. Hopefully, you should have accounts on most of those sites anyway, so you can just go right in and start submitting.
It has little click and drag boxes, at the bottom of the browser, that are so useful, because then you don’t need to retype everything again and again.
Another feature it has that is very nice, is the social marker button. You can add it to the bottom of your posts like a digg button, and if a reader clicks on it, it will automatically submit the information at socialmarker.com for them to submit. However, I wouldn’t recommend adding it yet, because at this point it would just be clutter. There aren’t enough people using socialmarker yet to make it worth it, but in the coming months it’s popularity should grow so be ready to add it.
I’ve included a video on using it, I’ve never used a video before so let me know if this is helpful, or if I shouldn’t bother again.
