Just to give you some personal insight on social bookmarking, I use onlywire, digg, and a few other social promotion sites. At Suite 101, I can track where everyone is coming from. Only about 2% of my hits come from social promotion sites. It really is minimal for me. A vast majority of my hits comes from web searches, primarily google, which is good since more people use search engines as opposed to social bookmarking sites.

However, the upside to social promotion is that the more you get your URL out there, the more it bumps you up on the google ranking, moving your article further up the list of sites. Also, several times I do believe my articles got picked up on a blog whose writer found me on a bookmarking site. I would get plenty of hits through the blog, so indirectly it came from the social bookmarking site.

I haven't submitted anything to AC for a while but was wondering did everyone get their w-9 from them??

we just moved and it's likely my mail is lost but I am wanting to finish our taxes.

I didn't make enough to need one from them.

I hope you get it soon.

Jenny, I'm glad to see you stopped in.
How's life?
Is there a way to track on AC where your hits are coming from?

Other than having a rather sick family, life is very,very good. I've gotten busy with some outside interests and it seems every day we are busy with something. I wish I had time in the day to do everything that I would like.

Not aware of any way to track where your hits are coming from at AC. Sorry.

How about you, what's going on in your world?

There is a call for content about Oprah and the Gift of Fear. I'm not going to claim it so I hope this can be posted here.

On a side note, Oprah started blabbing about neti pots in her show and the Whole Foods and Whole Foods clone here both sold out. I was having sinus issues and it took me a month to find one. : Every time I went into the store, "oh did you see the Oprah show about neti pots?" No, I don't watch tv.

Oprah did that to me, too :

A few years ago, land in the Puna district in Hawaii was the cheapest land in the nation. DH and I decided to sell everything we owned and move here, buy a few acres for $2000, camp on it, and then build our own house. We left everything behind us. Then, after we got here, everyone was like "oh, did you hear about that on the Oprah show? She was just telling everyone to buy land here because it was so cheap."

Two weeks later, there wasn't a stitch of land left in the whole state that we could afford. Prices skyrocketed to fifty times their original value just months after we moved here. Now we're stuck with no way back and no way forward and we've been thrown into poverty.

I wish that woman would just keep her big mouth shut!

okay </rant>
