For those of you with niche sites, do you find that social bookmarking works well for your niche? Is there a particular service (i.e. Digg, stumble, sphinn) that works well for you?

I'm curious to hear how it's going for niche marketers in the socialsphere

    I just did some social bookmarking for a niche site and a few hours later I got the motherlode of Google Alerts back - so something is happening.

    The most traffic I have received so far from the first round (for this site) a few weeks ago was from Google followed by Stumbleupon.

    I posted Video tonight and they are already on page one for the search term with views.

    I expect to see good results from continuing to do this combined with other methods like Blogging, articles and PPC which are all rolling out right now.

    Mixx works awesomely well for me. Apart from being a social site for various topics, users there are friendlier and more interactive, which the complete opposite of Digg.

    I use different social voting sites for different niches such as ShowHype for celebrity news and Sphinn for IM stuffs. You can search for these easily using Google though.

    Social bookmarking is useful for backlinks, although so many of them are using "nofollow" now. I've had less success getting any decent traffic from them. Sure, you can get stumbled but they don't convert.

    I do social bookmarking less often and carefully these days because too much of it is just spamming.
