Update Sept 27, 2008
For those checking at this time, this site no longer appears in Google’s index for the terms described below. That’s because, for some reason, my webhost (Dreamhost) “accidently” deleted this site from their server. I’ve been getting things back up and hopefully the site gets re-indexed in a little bit.

I’ve now been using Bookmarking Demon for 10 days and I wanted to give an updated review on my experiences so far. One of the advantages cited by the program is that it will help your sites get indexed by Google faster. Well, if you are expecting BookmarkingDemon to get your site indexed in 1 or 2 days, you will probably be disappointed. As a test, I performed a couple of Bookmarking Demon runs on this site, which was only a couple of days old and previously unindexed. I did this on the 5th of June, and I did not see this site indexed until June 9th. Four days is not too bad, but you can probably get indexed faster by getting links from a PR4 or PR5 site.

What I am happy with are my search results. As I check at this moment, I now rank #1 for the term bookmarkingdemon review and #2 for the term bookmarking demon review. I also rank #13 for bookmarking demon and #16 for bookmarkingdemon. I’m sure I’m helped quite a bit by my domain name, but I’m quite impressed by the results.

After 10 days of usage though, what I love the most about BookmarkingDemon is the amount of time I’m saving. I have around 20 sites in my portfolio and I have one of my computers dedicated to using BookmarkingDemon and continually submitting my sites. Doing this by hand would be near impossible and this is what makes this program great. If anyone has any questions about the program, feel free to ask in the comments.

I saw a post on BloggerUnleashed the other day about an interesting program called BookmarkingDemon by Edwin Brian. BookmarkingDemon is a simple little application that automates the process of submitting links to Social Bookmarking sites like del.icio.us, faves.com, spurl.net and many more. I know I’ve tried submitting my sites to some of these sites and its a big pain in the butt. Even using a free service like SocialMarker.com can still be quite tedious to use. After hearing about BookmarkingDemon I went to the homepage and watched some of the videos and I was quite impressed. Everything was automated, and you could do some cool things like randomizing your account user names and your bookmark titles to make things appear less spammy. Once this whole process is done, I could see it would bring my sites more targeted traffic (via tags), faster search engine indexing, higher search engine ranking and probably even better Page Rank. Although the price tag of $97 is a little steep, the benefits were compelling, and I decided to take the plunge and purchase it. In this blog, I will be reviewing BookmarkingDemon as I take the program through its paces.
