How estabilished do you have to be at a Social Bookmarking site in order for it to payoff in regards to Backlinks? And what's the a good social bookmarking website? Delisious (sp)?

First of all, they don't have to payoff since you don't have to pay anything to submit your link.
Secondly, social bookmarking website may provide you a backlink that search engine will actually look at. If they do, the backlink won't be very efficient.

You want to go to social bookmarking sites for traffic, not backlinks.

Yup. Social bookmarking is for traffic mainly. Sure, it increases the number of backlinks to your site, but doesn’t mean it will increase anything other than that.

Social bookmarking will not provide backlinks.
But a good way to increase traffic to your web site.

It must have some PR to pass.

Regarding social bookmarking, it is effective but the effect lasts only a short time.

It tough to get much of the credit for backlinks from those sites. Mainly because so many outgoing backlinks. rather its much of use as a traffic generator.

Yup,just like our other fellows have said, social bookmarking is for traffic, it provides backlinks but it will not provide quality backlinks which might also affect the bounce rate of your site.

Social bookmarking only increases back links but not traffic . social bookmarking will not provide quality back links. I think it is of no use

Your thinking is not well. Some do-follow social bookmarking sites provide quality back links as well as good traffic. But you have to do it in proper way. You can add social bookmarking button in your blogs or sites to increase content visibility in social sites. In this way digg button is most famous.

You can try this huge social bookmarking sites lists to include your sites to get traffic and back links.

On some point you're right but traffic may vary but not permanent. Like some professionals saying "Social bookmarking is good for backlinks but temporary effect when it comes to traffic!".

i disagree. it is the other way around, Social bookmarking sites may provide you a short term boost of traffic, you rarely get lots of back links from them, the chances are a user happens to stumble or digg your post then he liked your post and posted it on his site and that they provide a link to your site automatic one way back link

its a good source for traffic. I got 869 visits from stumbleupon alone in two days...but you need to provide fresh content and hope to get more stumbles then you get the traffic.

Social Bookmarking sites are very useful for generate more traffic to site and make your site popular and Google may give some attention to very good social bookmark sites like digg, delicious and more.

If I were you, I would focus more on getting traffic from SB sites than backlinks, and since the title is what captures the readers, you should always create interesting titles and not just stuff it with keywords

High short term traffic is the bonus benefit of social bookmarking links. After the first attention for your site is over, the link still counts as a valuable link, but not much more than any other link from a high PR site. Depending on the number and kind of social bookmarking service you use you get several targeted links from quality sites and a temporary boost in traffic .

I don't use social bookmarking sistems for links. They are social sites in which you can improve your number of visitors if you add articles there.

social bookmarking is one of the best way to get traffic to your website and we can get good back links form the bookmarking sites.
