			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.rivmedia.co.uk">RivMedia - Digital Marketing Agency</a></p><p>When you are looking to set up a new website, you might consider starting a forum website. Even if you have a website already, you may consider adding a forum to it, so that your users can chat with each other and you can possibly make more money. If you wish to do this, then the first thing you need to do is to actually decide which forum script you are going to use.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.rivmedia.co.uk">RivMedia - Digital Marketing Agency</a></p><p>If you are not using social bookmarking techniques to gain extra back links  to your website and increase traffic then you are missing out on one of the fastest  and easiest ways of promoting your website. In case you didn’t know, social bookmarking  is a method of sharing, organizing, searching and managing links to web  resources. The bookmarks themselves are held in the forms of categorized links  with appropriate anchor text and a short accompanying description. The most  interesting thing about social bookmarking though is that the major social  bookmarking sites are all loved by the main search engines.</p>
<p>Most of the big sites have a page rank of 6 or higher putting them in the  top ranking sites on the internet. Every day millions of people visit these  sites to bookmark and share their web favourites. This means two things to you  as an internet marketer.</p>
<p><span id="more-131"></span></p>
<p>First of all, you can tap into the massive amounts of traffic that these  sites generate. Most of these sites enable their members not only to share  bookmarks but also to vote on their popularity. Sites such as Digg, for  example, have a voting system that enables you to ‘digg’ sites up or down. If  your bookmark gets ‘dug’ enough times then it will reach the top of the  category listings or even the front page. Getting a front page listing on a  site like Digg can generate insane amounts of traffic for the short time that  it stays there.</p>
<p>The second advantage of social  bookmarking is that, because the major sites are all high PR, then the links  that you place there will be factored accordingly. In fact, there can’t be many  ways to get easier high ranking back links than using social bookmarking.</p>
<p>Of course, social bookmarking has its rules and there are some that you  absolutely should follow, otherwise your account will be banned and you may  even lose all of the links you have generated.<br />
First of all, never spam the major social bookmarking sites. They are  constantly on the lookout for people flooding their sites with links and even  actively encourage their users to report offenders. If you are to use social  bookmarking effectively, then obey the 80/20 rule that states that 80% of your  submissions should be for sites other than your own. If in doubt, create  multiple accounts and spread your link building efforts out over them. This  way, if one account gets reported then you don’t lose all of your links.</p>
<p>The other thing to do is to give something back to the community. Remember  to vote up other links that you find interesting, and try to contribute  interesting stories yourself; don’t just drop links to your money site all of  the time.</p>
<p>If you are diligent and follow some simple etiquette, then social  bookmarking can be a fantastic way to gain both instant traffic and long term  gains in the search engines. Make sure it’s part of your website promotion  efforts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.rivmedia.co.uk">RivMedia - Digital Marketing Agency</a></p><p>Most internet marketers are aware of the fact that nothing  helps you rise up the search engine rankings quite like building back links.  Back links are links from other websites back to your own, and are generally  regarded as one of the most significant factors in achieving a high search  engine ranking for a given keyword.  The  problem with getting back links is that it’s a time consuming and tedious  process with many sites to visit, profiles to fill out and a lot of commenting  and posting to do as well. However, there is another way to gain back links  that is quick, simple and very effective &#8211; use social bookmarking.</p>
<p>Social Bookmarking sites are all the rage just now, and no  wonder. A beautifully simple idea, social bookmarking is meant to allow you to  keep note of your favourite websites in one handy location, kind of like an  on-line version of your browsers bookmarks tab. The big social bookmarking  sites also allow their members to vote on bookmarks that they like (or kick  down ones they don’t) and bookmarks that are ranked highly can appear on the  sites front page where they get a lot of attention.<span id="more-129"></span></p>
<p>Social Bookmarking sites are extremely popular and have  millions of visitors a day. Just being on the front page alone can make your  traffic stats rocket, and then, of course, you have the power of these links  all pointing back to your site. You see, the major social bookmarking sites, as  well as being busy, all have very high page rank and that means that any back  links that you post there are highly regarded by the search engines.</p>
<p>Because the sites are so simple and quick to use, social  bookmarking is now seen as one of the easiest and quickest ways to get quality  back links to your website. Of course, all of this power comes with some  catches.<br />
First of all, the big social bookmarking sites are  constantly waging war on link spammers. If you are dropping hundreds of links  to your money site and not contributing anything else to the community, then  expect to get your account banned and your links removed. Similarly, these  sites all encourage their members to weed out spammers so even if the owners  don’t catch you, your fellow users may well.</p>
<p>The other thing to watch out for is the growing number of  rogue or ineffective social bookmarking sites. Although there are thousands of  social bookmarking sites available today, there are really only about 20-30  that are worth bothering with. Save your time and effort and concentrate on the  main ones for the best effect.</p>
<p>Social bookmarking really can be link building on steroids but  just don’t overdo it. Keep your content relevant, mix in some other sites with  your own links and above all give people content that is interesting and there  is no reason why social bookmarking can propel you to the top of the search  engine rankings.</p>
