    If you have something that people want to look at both could be equally as good , I remember when places like Digg used to send huge amounts of traffic from a front page story but now its just terrible in comparison , Facebook and twitter drive more traffic now days imo

    Well IMO they are almost equal in driving traffic because they are both required participation in able to get the traffic that you wanted. First thing is that your content should be really good, second is how well your site can attract people to visit you. Third, you should participate to the discussion, sharing, voting, commenting, etc.

    Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to store, organize, and manage bookmarks of website pages on the Internet with the help of tittle tag.

    A social network is a social structure made of nodes (which are generally individuals or organizations) that are tied by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as values, ideas, financial exchange, friendship, kinship, dislike, conflict or trade.

    both seems to better to increases our site traffic..

    Social networking sites like facebook, twitter are more effective compared to social bookmarking sites as they are more popular and traffic generation capacities are higher.

    Well, in my opinion, I thinks its both social networking and social bookmarking. And in social networking, it will be helpful to your site if your it is all about things that people would look up to. For example about clothes, games, accessories etc. You just have to know how to attract your target visitors.

    Both are good but they differs in number of ways for example if I have to choose one from both then I would prefer social bookmarking instead of social networking....the reason is that there are some social bookmarking sites which provide do-follow linking and I can get traffic as well as ranking in one attempt.

    Taken at face value, most social bookmarking sites are social media networks anyway, it is just the premise of how people are expected to communication predominantly that changes. Like myspace is designed to share multimedia most effectively, facebook is a detailed portal for conversation and twitter is a snippet, brief go to site, bookmark sites anticipate that people will communicate via links and ensuing discussion through networks.

    The difference between Social Bookmarking and Social Networking. Social Bookmarking is really helpful to bookmarked the link, traffic and ranking in Search Engine. Both of these two are really helpful to generate the traffic of a website.

    No doubt it's social networking. Most people are into connections so social networking works more effective than just social bookmarking your links and gain traffic from it.

    I prefer both for generating the traffic of a website. For backlinks and targeting keywords of course I'll go for Social Bookmarking site.
