Social bookmarking is one of the most popular trends in blogging nowadays. The benefits that bloggers derive from these social bookmarks made it necessary for every blogger to include at least the most popular social bookmarks in their blogs.I’m sure you’ve read it somewhere else that in blogging, you should make all possible ways to make your readers connect easily to your content. There’s no better way of doing it than to make it convenient for them.
Readers or visitors of your blog can influence your traffic. For instance, if someone finds your article really useful and take his/her time to Digg it, it will be a free promotion for your blog. The problem is if you do not have a link to popular social bookmarks. Your readers or visitors might not be patient enough to Digg it or include it to their favorates in del.icio.us. Therefore, it is advisable that you place a link to popular social bookmarks in your blog. Because of these reasons, I have placed links to popular social bookmarks at the bottom of each of my blog posts.
How to Add Popular Social Bookmarks to your Blogger account?
1. Open your Blogger account.
2. Go to ‘LAYOUT’.
3. Inside Template, click Edit HTML.
4. Tick the Expand widget box by simply clicking on it. (You can find it at the upper right corner of your HTML.)
