A lot of times, I get questions about whether or not Social networking links are permanent or how long will they last?
Before I answer this question, here are links of social networking sites (could be more)
Is Social Bookmarking links permanent?
Hi,
i am wondering are links from social bookmarking permanent? if not how long do they last?
Does google value links from social bookmarking sites? (like digg?)
If you don’t get banned then yes these are permanent. digg is no more linking site direct. if the site page on which contains ur link stop indexing the link will vanish after some time.
social bookmark can actually bring lots of traffic to your site. (do not submit irrelevant site to social bookmark- you might get initial visit- but it will not last – submit site that match your description)
some social bookmark site do give you backlinks. with respect to digg.. you will get backlinks from its internal search engine–> for example:
Code:
http://digg.com/search?s=good+seo services
(in other words, ppl is searching for your site in digg and pays you a visit). – it stays in my as a backlink to my site for almost 1 month now (still there).
Conclusion: social bookmark can give you high quality traffic if your site submitted is relevant. with respect to link buildings, i would say it is less effective than trying to submit a post in forums. But who cares , it seriously generates traffic to your site. In a nut shell i would recommend social bookmarking as a way to generate traffic.
PS: if you want to generate backlinks –> yahoo answer is one of the way to generate backlinks kinda of effective (of course, you need to provide relevant answer or something related to what the asker is asking for)
Keep in mind that:Your site will only be deleted if they are found to be spam ones. (Bad advertising techniques)
