WebmasterWorld has launched a new forum named Social Media Tagging and Bookmarking Optimization. The new forum comes to life with the recent buzz on SMO - Social Media Optimization.
What is SMO?
- Tagging
- Web based bookmarking
- Digg.com

It is being used all over, you see we have our SMO buttons in the footer of each post.

Great post. I haven't been by there in a while, just cruising on SEO Roundtable and SEW news/info. This signifies the importance and power of social bookmarking. Now I hope there isn't going to be software to spoof online "word of mouth marketing".....

I have had continuing support from my management in this effort, because I've been able to prove how much more I can accomplish by answering a question, and posting it on a blog, for example, than I can by answering the same question over and over. I still help people, but in a more open and collaborative fashion. Other people can join in the discussions — maybe they will have a better idea than mine. dorkey <a href="http://www.widecircles.com" rel="nofollow">Social Media Marketing</a>
