The power of social bookmarking

I’ve talked before about the power of using social bookmark sites such as stumble upon to attract viewers to your blog. Well here is a very real example!

I’ve recently launched a blog where I share my blogging mistakes and how to save money by not doing what I did (http://www.imakenomoney.com) It was recently Stumbled Upon and I was amazed at the increase in traffic!  My traffic went from 10-15 page views a day to over 300! Here is a screenshot from my Analytics account:

So I would encourage to experiement with different social networking / bookmarking sites such as the ones featured at the bottom of these posts.  Remember however the golden rule, is better to give than receive!  So make sure you giving lots of “link love” to other sites that are preferably in your niche.
