Social Media Sites are Good Ways to Get Free Links

A good thing about social media sites is that they are basically a free-for-all link post. Anyone can go in and post links that they find interesting or useful. As a web marketer, using social media sites to develop your back link count is a great idea because: 1) they are free, 2) they are one-way, non reciprocal links, 3) they go “live” almost instantly, 4) they can produce good traffic, and 5) the link authority they pass can increase your search engine rankings.  Good social media sites to submit to include Digg, StumbleUpon, Reddit, and Propeller.
