Marketing Articles and Hit-and-run Social Bookmarking Technique

June 15, 2010 - Last Modified: February 14, 2013 by Julius

Hit-and-run Technique

Today is Tuesday and this means that we are going to present our weekly round up. All the marketing articles I present to you here were submitted to the MMO social bookmark and network at one point or another. So if you want to get your article listed here then be sure to submit your posts to MMO.

Because of the feedback I got I want to change my weekly round up a little bit. I am going to add some information as to why I chose each article. Then depending on the topic I will also sprout up a discussion on a related topic.

Hit-and-run Social Bookmarking

There is a very important article I want to highlight today, it’s about the Hit-and-run Social Bookmarking technique that most of members are following, once they get theirs submission completed, they just run without checking what others submitted to the site, only a few members take the time to check the upcoming stories which is not actually published yet on the site, and it will not appear in the RSS feed because it doesn’t have enough votes, it will remain in queue for 2 days till we archive it, and this happen to a lot or your links!

So, basically what you are doing is you are wasting your time and effort, you are not getting a quality backlink or any traffic because your link will not reach the homepage! If every member did the Hit-and-run then there will be no published and promoted articles! and this is not what social bookmarking sites are about!

Plz, submit your article, tweet it using the “Post to twitter” link, check the other submissions in the upcoming stories and vote if you find it useful!

Here is What I Have Found For You Today on MMO Social Network

Marketing Articles

  • Why Your Content is Killing Your Website – I enjoyed reading the article because it’s a somewhat different approach to how your content should ultimately look like.
  • 10 Best Marketing Tips that Will Blow Your Mind – This article covers the basics of Internet marketing but also gives some in-depth insight into email marketing which I particularly enjoyed.
  • Write Your Book – This articles covers 10 reasons why you should write a book at some point in your life. I liked the post because it shows you the benefits of being an author.
  • Email Marketing: HTML vs Plain Text Emails? – I like the topic he talks about and also the content of the article which talks about what’s better to use HTML vs plain text. He also presents some very interesting ideas here.
  • List Building – The Seven Best Methods – Here Andrew presents some good ideas on how you can get more people to sign up for your subscriber list. Definitely worth reading.
  • Why Your blog is an Epic Failure – I enjoyed reading the article because I believe that there are so many people, me included, that make the same mistakes about blogging over and over again.
  • 3 Biggest Mistakes That Newbie Affiliate Marketers Make – Raymond writes about what most people don’t do when they start to try and make money through affliate marketing. I have made several of the mistakes myself. It’s definitely worth reading.
  • Robin Low: A Guide to Entrepreneurship – Basically the article includes an ebook about entrepreneurship which I think is very valuable. Take a look at it.
  • Writing For Traffic or Visitors? Have You Been Doing It All Wrong? – I enjoyed reading Jack’s article. As the title suggests he talks about whether you should write for SEO purposes or with your readers in mind.
  • 8 Ways Affiliates Can Benefit from Twitter – I enjoyed this article because it’s not the generic Twitter tools post. It talks about how bloggers can benefit from Twitter and is definitely worth reading.

My Criteria

To make this more interesting for you I want to talk about how I choose the links I include in my weekly round up. Generally I will include every article that I think fits to the topic I choose. For example this week I decided to stick with marketing articles.

There were some articles that didn’t have anything, at least in my opinion, to do with marketing and that’s why I left them out. I also look at the blog and how it is designed. The cleaner and the nicer the layout the more likely is that I am going to include your article in our round up.

Also note that one of the most important factors is whether an article is generic or whether it covers new ideas of approaching things.

What do you think? Do you like the changes I adopted to the weekly round up? What do you think should we change? And most important of all did you like the articles I included?

    I have realised i need to socialize my blog more since my traffics are from search engines, but only 5% from social media sites lol.
  2. Chadrack says:
    The criteria used is fair enough. Especially the one on whether the article is generic or it covers new ideas and approaches things somewhat differently. Will go through some of those articles. Think so much to learn from them!
  3. Colleen says:
    Like everything else, you receive what you put into it. Social bookmarking is not exception. Plus, if you are only bookmarking your own stuff, some sites will ban you.
  4. Asad says:
    I read one article about why your content is killing your website and i liked it very much especially the point to be true to yourself.
  5. Dev says:
    Julius, Nice Roundup. Thanks for the link love. I really appreciate it.
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Thanks Dev. I am glad you like it. What do you think could we improve for our round up?
  6. Dan Keller says:
    Good roundup indeed. I read most of those posts either through MMO or other avenues. I am making more of an effort to engage more on social networking sites, so I will definitely check out the upcoming section.
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Yeah I have been making some efforts on social networking sites too. Glad you like the round up. Thanks for the comment Dan.
    • Hesham says:
      I am testing a new feature on MMO now, it will give more power to trusted members like you! try the vote for upcoming articles and refresh the page! also check your profile at MMO at the end of the page you will find your new badges ;)
  7. element321 says:
    I agree, in most cases, you are just wasting your time if you drop and run. However, there some sites, if you spend time networking on there you are still wasting your time. I been testing some sites to see if I spend more time on those sites and networking if I can get to the front page and so far it isn't working. Maybe I am not spending enough time or I am doing something wrong, either way I mainly use those sites, for the backlinks on higher page ranked bookmarking sites. On those sites it does matter, I spend a minimum of 2o minutes a day (if I have the time) on them even when I do not have anything to submit. I spend my time, reading commenting on the blog post and RTing ones that I like.
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Yes I agree. On some social networks it's not worth it to spend so much time on them. Social networks are of course there to be social and engage other people and to submit there content. It's not only about submitting your own links but also promoting others.
    • Hesham says:
      Hey buddy, I have a new "power members" feature at MMO, I have talked to you about this before, I finally manages something to work, check your profile for your new badges and let's test that! (refresh the page after voting!)
  8. Dennis Edell says:
    Some excellent articles there, and I must agree with the hit-run mess. While I haven't been to MMO yet, this happens everywhere and people just don't get it; don't understand why they aren't getting traffic and blame it on the sites instead.
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Yes I agree with you Dennis. Some people don't get it. You can't really get that much traffic through social network sites if you just submit your own articles. I am glad you like the articles.
  9. David Leonhardt says:
    Great round-up. Thanks for including my article. I see several gems in this list.
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Always glad to David. Be sure to check out the other articles ;)
  10. Ryan says:
    Hi Julius, Thanks for sharing the comprehensive list of articles :) As for hit-and-run bookmarking a great analogy. It never pays to be in a hurry. Ryan
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Yeah I agree you should take some time when using social networks. I am glad you like the article list. Thanks for the comment Ryan.
  11. Mike says:
    I think some of them are duplicated from the previous round up, right? I think the Best 10 marketing techniques is. It appears that I have read somewhere in your blog but if it's not true, I'm really sorry :)
    • Hesham says:
      Hey Mike, all these articles are fresh and there is no duplications, if you wan to make sure then check out Julius author page at FamousBloggers, this is the first time he actually talk about marketing articles from the MMO social network, also there is no chance for duplication as articles can not be submitted twice and it's only submitted to one category :)
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      I tried not to post duplicate articles. As Hesham said articles from MMO can only be submitted to one category and I think I haven't cover marketing yet. Thanks for the comment Mike.
  12. Nabeel says:
    Hello, This is the first weekly roundup that I have read here. Looks good, but I have read most of those articles! Keep it up. It is really informative for those who might have missed them.
    • Hesham says:
      Nabeel, it seems that you are so active and a good reader ;) Most of these articles are from our friends, readers and bloggers in the community, this is probably why you have came across them before! The main goal of this round up is to create a healthy discussion and generate opinions about the articles if you like them or if you didn't like what's inside one of these articles! and also it's giving 2 other important things, the first is exposure to MMO members, and backlinks to their good articles because we see that they deserve it from us!
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Most of these articles are articles you are going to read when you are active within our community. What do you think of the changes made to the round up? Do you like it?
      • Nabeel says:
        Well Julius, This is the first round up that I have read here. But I do like how you commented about each article. It makes you look personal, and helps all of us to gauge the article.
  13. Agent Deepak says:
    10 Best Marketing Tips is one of the article I have read and it is nice. Going to read rest of the articles on the list. Thanks
    • Julius Kuhn-Regnier says:
      Glad you like the articles I listed here. Take a look at the other articles and tell me what you think of them ;) Thanks for the comment.
