Get Paid to Bookmark!

It is a common practice that while surfing the web if we come across a web page that contains a lot of content related to our interest then we save that page by adding to our favorites or bookmark it so that we can check that out later. This is called bookmarking a page and saving it to your computer.

Slightly different is the case when we use social bookmarking sites to bookmark content such as photos , blogs , articles , videos etc .By bookmarking contents through one of those sites , the links of the contents are saved on that social bookmarking website rather than your computer. Those links are public links and other users can view them as your bookmarked links.The more the people bookmark any particular content the more popular it gets and hence more traffic is is diverted to the page containing that content which can be a photo, video, blog, article or even a website.

There are various social bookmarking websites that you can join and start saving your bookmarks there. Some of the very popular ones are:

• Digg
• Stumbleupon
• Technorati
• Del.icio.us

Now you will not get paid by bookmarking contents from those sites but there are other websites that promote contents through these social bookmarking sites and they reward their members in cash for every content they bookmark. Yes, these are paid bookmarks. I have listed two of such sites below.

• Subvert & Profit
  

Subvert and Profit has thousands of members that work together to bookmark or rate a site and hence promoting it. You will be required to rate and bookmark contents here from your digg and stumbleupon account. There is no difference in the way you do is. The only difference is that you will be paid for doing all this as a member of subvert and profit.

• DiggFreak
  

This site is also the same as subvert and profit. The only difference is that besides digg and stumbleupon, DiggFreak also uses technorati and del.icio.us to rate and bookmark. There is more stuff to bookmark on DiggFreak so you will have to spend some time there on daily basis and also earn some cash at the same time.
