When social bookmarking happens without you

Just had a great experience - thought I’d better submit my news articles for today to social media sites.

However, the first two I tried to submit were refused - because they had already been submitted by other users. :)

Either another SEO has decided to become my best friend, in which case - the cheques in the post - or else submitting to social media is only required long enough to become noticed - and that once this happens, you automatically start to be picked up.

If this is the case then it’s absolutely great - a pleasant surprise, and one I don’t intend to see lose momentum.

But it also issues a cautionary warning - that the longer you ignore social media sites, the more likely you are failing to tap into what is now a massive Web 2.0 happening - a whole new set of internet tiers outside of Google.

Of course, it helps when you publish news-focused sites in the first place, no matter how small.
