I have a client whom I have recommended they have a social bookmarking service created as a tool to encourage natural linking.

My idea is to create an integrated social bookmarking service service that would be at the root of their domain name. This way when we have widgets displayed on other people’s sites, my client’s site would earn the link back.

Now considering that the bookmarking section would be at the root of the domain how successful would it be if I recommend getting a domain name and have that redirected to the bookmarking section? Would this tactic cause any SEO damage?
Adam, I agree that the market is saturated for bookmarking sites, but they are ‘general. When people need to find sites for trendy women, they go to HerFabLife.com, developer links? DZone, and the list goes on. For that reason, I need a niche one for my clients.

I’ve been blogging for about 3 months now. No ads on my blog to speed up traffic. My niche is about weight loss. It just stresses me knowing that I only have 6 visitors or less a day. In fact I update my blog with new post 3 times a week. I already have 30 post. Since its weight loss, I don’t expect some comments because its not some entertainment or rumor blog. I joined social bookmarking sites and noticed that most weight loss blogs don’t get updated anymore on mybloglog and blogcatalog. I even did a little SEO technique. When I type weight loss on blogcatalog, my site appears on the first page of that site because I update it. Will that happen to search engines like Yahoo and Google too if I update often? Im willing to. How much patience should I need to get atleast 100 a day. Real answers please cause most blog websites only make it complicated.

I wanted to create a social bookmarking siet should I do a niche or every subject?
