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!

What is your niche and maybe we can help you find some quality links

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