If you want to have any kind of effect with article submitting, you need to be submitting to hundreds of directories. As you can imagine, this takes hours upon hours to complete. However, having submission software can cut this time down to virtually nothing while still allowing you to reap the benefits.

2. Find countless article directories

The whole point behind writing and submitting articles is to gain exposure and generate traffic. By submitting your articles to hundreds of directories, you will have all of your content amidst the eyes of millions. This allows you to gain credibility while displaying your knowledge and expertise for various topics.

Using article submission software makes it easy to stay organized and remember which directories you have already submitted to. It will also allow you to keep all of the articles you have written organized along with the author bios if you decide to have multiple.

5. Targeted traffic

These are the people who are already interested in what you have to offer and are willing to look at your web site. By using submission software, you will be able to select a specific category or sub-category to make it easier for your target market to find your content.

Mass Article Control is one very popular product right now and it comes with article submission software plus a way to spin articles. Even if you can spin one article into thousands like they say on the sales page, this is not working very good. Ezinearticles have started to recognize this. Spinning of articles still need some work to have any effect. To get a backlink that is worth anything the content needs to be unique and changing a few words doesn’t help much. Mass article control can be very usefull if you use it wisely.

The problem with the automated tools is that it’s tempting to start bookmarking to every bookmarking site without doing some necessary tasks. When bookmarking to say 10 different sites all the bookmarks needs to have different titles and descriptions. The titles should be around 20 characters long and the descriptions should be about 200 characters. This takes time and some writing skills but to get any benefits from  your bookmarking activity it needs to be done.

I mainly use the established bookmarking sites and usually stay away from the pligg and scuttle sites. I don’t know if the scuttle sites help get better ranking but it seems like they are just huge directories of links to poor sites. Some of them have page rank so I guess you should get some benefits from that.

I have been using Bookmarking Demon for a few years now and with the latest updates it really beats everything I have tested. There is other options out there but they cost more or have a monthly fee which I don’t like.

Socialbot or Bookmarking Demon?
Well, Bookmarking Demon cost $147 and Sociallbot $24.95 so this is a big difference in price. For a newbie who wants to try social bookmarking I think Socialbot is the best option it works very good it’s cheap and is updated regularly which is very important when it comes to this kind of tools.

The big difference between the two is the automated part. In Bookmarking Demon you set everything up and the program goes out and create accounts the only thing you have to do is put in the captcha. When that is done you can also automatically confirm you accounts so you don’t have to check your email and click the activation links. This part is a new feature and works well.

Socialbot is semi automated all the fields is filled in when you click sign up so this part is pretty easy and it feels like you have more control. With Socialbot you have to check your email and confirm to activate your new bookmarking accounts. This part actually don’t take that long to do but if you want to create a lot of different accounts per day it is nice when this is automated.

Spinner possibilities
Both of them has the ability to spin titles and descriptions. It can be good to register different user names to the different bookmarking sites, Bookmarking Demon does this easily. Just put user names in separated by comma on one line. It even suggest different names and passwords which saves time. In Socialbot you create a company profile and then a user in that profile where you can pick the bookmarking sites you want for that user. When you create accounts Socialbot picks the user name in the company profile. You can make many company profiles so you don’t have to have the same user name for all bookmarking accounts.

Like I said Bookmarking Demon is more automated and you can easily bookmark many pages to all the major bookmarking sites with much less effort then manual submission. If you buy Bookmarking Demon take some time to learn the program first and don’t try it on your money sites right away. I felt a little overwhelmed when I first started using it. There is many options to choose from so learning the program is essential to be successful. There is a good guide that comes with it which I suggest you read. The support is excellent and the program is updated on a regular basis.

Conclusion
I think Bookmarking Demon is worth the price if you use it wisely and often, you will make that money back not the next day but in a few month or so. Yes, it takes time to do search engine marketing effectively. Check out the sales page here

Socialbot is definitely worth the price it almost does what Bookmarking Demon does and cost so much less, so if you want to start to automate your bookmarking I suggest you try this tool first. Check it out here
