Social Bookmarking is a method for Internet users to store, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web pages on the Internet with the help of metadata.

More importantly, Social Bookmarking is also a great way to improve rankings on search engines by using web annotation, groups or other social network features.[1]

In a Social Bookmarking system, users save links to web pages that they share with other users. These bookmarks are usually public (but can be saved privately), and they are shared only with other approved people and groups, or are shared inside certain networks or combinations of public and private domains.

People who are allowed access can usually view these bookmarks by category or tags, chronologically or via a search engine.

Most Social Bookmark services encourage users to organize their bookmarks with informal tags instead of the traditional browser-based system of folders. They can enable bookmarks associated with a chosen tag, and include information about the number of users who have bookmarked them.

Some Social Bookmarking services also draw inferences from the relationship of tags to create clusters of tags or bookmarks.

Many social bookmarking services provide web feeds for their bookmark lists, often organized by tags. This allows subscribers to become aware of new bookmarks as they are shared and tagged by others.

As these services have matured and grown more popular, they have added extra features such as ratings and comments on bookmarks, the ability to import and export bookmarks from browsers, emailing of bookmarks, web annotation, and groups or other social network features.[1]
