Here’s the ’skinny’ on Social Bookmarking
Bookmarks show how a site is perceived, and when these sites allow voting, they also show the engines or whatever classification system which monitors voting, how people feel about the quality of the site. Furthermore, social bookmarking can introduce a site to the search engines, as in some cases, people may find and bookmark a site or a site’s internal pages before a search engine can find those pages via another form of inbound link.

The Benefits of Social Bookmarking 
1. Search Engine or Organic Traffic
If you look on a bookmark as a one-way backlink, we know that part of Google’s algorithm is to count the number of backlinks to assess your Page Rank, and will probably help you get higher rankings on the search results pages.
Google and the other search engines send their robots to the Social Bookmarking sites many times a day, subsequently your new pages are likely to be indexed extremely fast.
2. Direct and Indirect Traffic
Many people use sites like digg and delicious as search engines in their own right, as they can find many links to blogs, videos and other content that is classified by user-generated tags, avoiding what Google decides to serve up.
Social Bookmarking cannot only be used to send traffic to your blog, but also to other content that you have submitted to other Web 2.o platforms. For example YouTube and other video sharing sites, podcast directories, squidoo lenses, hubpages and many more.
Another important benefit to consider is that the visitors that arrive on your landing pages are highly ‘targeted’, as they find you from tags and keywords that you have selected, and content that you have created.
3. Relationship Building
We’ve established that Social Bookmarking is a great way to announce your fresh content and make your content available to a wider audience, but probably the greatest benefit is that bookmarks (along with micro-blogs) can open the door to building relationships with your prospective clients.
