I just spoke to my friend about using social bookmarks and he raises a good point; What’s the point? I currently have a social media bookmarking tool on my website and it really does not do me any favours what so ever. Does anyone actually use it? Do people even know its there? Maybe the majority of people are just confused and bewildered by what on earth it is. I am interested to hear what other peoples opinions are on this subject as I am considering not bothering having the social bookmarking tool on each blog post.

I found an excellent article from a guy who knows the deal and has touched upon similar things I have said – http://nikkipilk.sc10.co.uk/blog/2009/08/04/whats-the-point-of-social-bookmarking/

So, what is the next step? Monitor the traffic levels coming in from social sites and see if it is worth having the bookmarks on your blog/site.
