From time to time, I check the bookmarks of SEOs who are using SB sites for link building. One thing I've noticed that is a big no-no -- you're not alternating the tags.
Anchor text is one of the most important indicators that Google and MSN use to determine what a website is about. Having the same tag, or anchor text, associated with a link on all of your SB sites will diminish their own effect, plus minimize the possible advantages granted for the link itself.
There is always a temptation to use onlywire or one of the other automated bookmarking tools. If you do use them, make sure to split it up amongst 3 or 4 different submissions. In other words, use the tools, but submit a site once with only a few SB sites checked, then resubmit with another set, and on and on.
Google doesn't like it when the same anchor is used constantly. They want websites rankings and link building to be natural. They don't want googlebombing or any other form of SERP manipulation.
It will take more time, but it is worth the effort.

Using Directories to Hide Social Bookmarking SEO
Many search engine optimization professionals consider directory submissions dead. They say that the links have been completely devalued, de-indexed, and otherwise worthless.
This may or may not be true. I tend to believe that they still offer SEO value to some extent, but that's not why you should use them.
They serve as great camoflage. Period.
Since you are on this blog, you are interested in using social bookmarking for search engine optimization. We will assume that you see the value and you are ready for more learning. Here's the nut, plain and simple. Submit to directories. Whether you believe they have SEO value or not, directories add a good handful of links very quickly that competitors will have to sift through when trying to analyze your SEO plan.
We suggest using Directory Maximizer. It's cheap - 14 cents per submission. It's manually done. Most importantly, you are in control of the timing and nature of the submissions. Pick up to 5 anchors at a time, plus 5 descriptions and 5 sets of keywords.
$28 buys you 200 backlinks. You can spread them out over time or get them in one big push. It's up to you.

Using Social Media to get Pages Indexed Quickly
Sometimes I laugh at the ads posted through banners and links on different web pages.
"We'll submit your website to 65 trillion search engines for $29."
Sometimes I just shake my head, not because it's such a scam, but because I know that people do it. That's their $29 SEO. The pay and go and wonder a few weeks later why Google has not indexed their page yet.
There are a few things you can do to get your pages indexed if your site is new. You can submit it to the search engines. This takes a while and by the time Google and the others get around to indexing submitted sites, you've probably given up on it.
There is the link purchase, where you buy a link on a PR 6 or higher websites. It works, but it costs quite a bit, especially if you're smart enough to search for relevancy.
The easiest way to get you pages indexed is to "AddThis" or whatever widget you use for social bookmarking. If you submit your site to Digg, Furl, Reddit, etc, you have made the second step towards getting your website indexed.
The first step? Be active and make friends on Digg, Furl, Redd1t, etc. There are many people who have these accounts on the SB sites, submitting their own work in a few seconds, and never exploring or making friends or anything that will actually help them. It is a time investment, but the rewards can be tremendous.
If you can make enough friends (and by friends, I mean those who mutually befriend you) by Digging their stories, the right people will befriend you and Digg your stories back. This is the key. Hoping that your one single Digg to your page or website will be enough is a stab in the dark. It may get indexed, it may not.
Friends allow you to get 10, 20, 30 or more Diggs on a story. If it gets 30 Diggs, Google will index it. If somehow it is able to go Popular, prepare for the storm of traffic.
A case in point is Portland Toyota Dealers. They are a new site that was having trouble getting indexed. Using my SB sites, I was able to get it indexed and start a nice flow of backlinks pointing to it.
If you do not want to spend a few hours per week with social bookmarking to help your SEO, you shouldn't spend any time at all.
