Since very long time I have been planning to write an ebook series titled “Become A Problogger”. Finally I finished the part 1 of the series. You can download part 1 from here: Become A Problogger

You will find so many bloggers in the blogosphere who write about “How They Make 6 Figure Income”, but rarely share their key secrets and strategy. You will read about their fancy life style, expensive cars, vacations, etc.

Some of these might be inspirational especially for the newcomers. However, they rarely add any value to bloggers. They make good money by selling the dream of making a fortune online. At the end of the day they make more money, while majority of the bloggers can not exceed 50$ per month.

Social Bookmarking is a powerful way of promoting your blog. Yet it takes significant amount of time to submit your posts to each and every social bookmarking site. Until I found SocialMarker, I also spent a lot of time while submitting my blog posts to social bookmarking sites.

Today it takes 15-20 minutes to submit my articles to more than 45 social bookmarking site. The good thing is those social bookmarking sites are categorized as all, best, bookmarking, news, and dofollow.

Most probably you already know that when you submit your posts to a dofollow site or blog, you got backlinks which helps your blog ranked better in the search engine results. So if you are looking for free and organic SEO growth, submit your blog posts to dofollow social bookmarking sites regularly.

Social bookmarking submission with SocialMarker is very easy. At first you need to enter bookmark details as title, link (URL), and tags (seperated by tags). Then select the social bookmarking sites you would like to submit your article.

It helps you spread a link on 47 of the best social bookmarking sites including Digg, StumbleUpon in 15-20 minutes.

• You get a lot of backlinks by using SocialMarker
• You increase your traffic
• Your posts get indexed in Google immediately

The best part is, SocialMarker is still free. Spend 15-20 minutes everyday, and enjoy ever increasing free traffic with it!

What is Blogging Zoom ?

Probably you have never heard of Blogging Zoom before. It is a social bookmarking site like Digg, Plugim, and many more. It was launched in Public Beta on 1st of November, 2007. What makes Blogging Zoom so special is that after you submit your blog entries, you are promised to get better search engine placement.

Blogging Zoom is a place where bloggers can share content that they and other bloggers have written. Blogging Zoom is the perfect place to go for people that are tired of the mainstream media and content. The users of Blogging Zoom determine which content is valuable and which content isn’t. ‘Zooming’ or voting positively for a post or article will give it more exposure and with enough Zooms, your content will hit the front page to be showcased to the masses.

I have never seen such a promise before from another social bookmarking site. It is too early to comment, but if Blogging Zoom keeps its promise, it will eventually become the most popular social bookmarking site in blogosphere.

Personally i use Stumble and Digg quite often. Stumble works well for my blog, drives good traffic. Digg is neither working for everyday bloggers, nor helping on SEO of blog posts.

Blogging Zoom can help bloggers on SEO, and it is completely open for blogs. Access of any website is not allowed. The service is free and people can either submit their own posts or their favorite posts around the blogosphere.

For your easy guidance, i signed up with Blogging Zoom yesterday. My first submission have been zoomed by 7 times since yesterday. I got some decent traffic from Blogging Zoom on the first day. From their blog, i learnt that i will be gaining better search engine rankings by sticking to tips herebelow:
