Voting mechanism that brings traffic
If a lot of people like the same content & vote it up,
then more people see it.
If people vote it down and they don’t like it,
then fewer people get to see it.
The higher the votes, the more click through therefore
more traffic for the site that was listed.

6 Tips for managing Social Bookmarking Profile:
1. Be Human –Use a real picture, your real name, give bit of personal info
about yourself. The more real and approachable you seem, the less likely
you’ll be taken as a spammer.
2. Observe First – Don’t just storm in there with your content and try to get
people to buy your stuff. Observe first, then participate, then contribute.
3. Read Comments – Check out the conversations going on to better equip
yourself to leave relevant comments of your own. You’ll also become aware
of the who’s doing a lot of commenting and who’s spamming. Keep this in
mind when you are adding friends.

6 Tips for managing Social Bookmarking Profile:
4. Vote and Join In – Users gain more power and influence by participating.
You need to write comments that also get voted up.
5. Befriend People - If you’ve got a good profile and you make lots of
friends, then you become more popular. Find friends in your own niche,if
you get their attention you will go far in a much faster way. Your content
hasn’t got a chance without few votes in order for anybody else to see it.
6. Vote on Great Content – Don’t only submit your friends’ stuff, or worse
yet, only your own stuff. How annoying was it when your friend became this
person that was always trying to recruit or sell you something?
