    What do you think about Social Bookmark and Digg sites?

    Hi,

    I've been submitting my threads to every Social Bookmark Service and Digg clones I know.

    Whenever a thread is created and the topic as value, I start my home work

    Is this a good way to get backlinks (some are dofollow) and traffic or google doesn't give any value to this type of site?

    I think they are pretty useless.

    Unless your site is about technology or some other 'news', and you're first to post a thread about it, it's a waste of time.

    But doesn't this give us at least some back links?
    I submit my new threads to some digg clones in my language and choose a category related to my niche.

    Still this a useful job?

    While it is a back link, it's not necessarily a 'quality' one.


    I'd rather have one link from dell.com to my imaginary computer forum than 100 links from digg/etc.

    Well, I must find quality links in my niche :(
    This is very difficult to have!

    My niche is traveling but the language is Portuguese.
    Does Google gives any value to links from English language to a Portuguese site?
