SocialAdr Review - an honest one!


Social media and social bookmarking is looking like THE way forward with regards to seo. Ignore it, and you will be left behind. But social bookmarking is just a part of marketing on the internet that people hate. You hear all over that you need to do it to help your pages rank better and to drive more traffic to your site.  It's true.  But there's a problem: It's incredibly boring! With SocialAdr suddenly that task is crossed off the list. It completely automates the process of getting pages on the social bookmarking sites

How does it work?
It's totally revolutionary in the way it works: they have hundreds of users, an army really, that are all waiting to bookmark you pages on their own social bookmarking accounts.  All you have to do is put in the pages that you want bookmarked and the rest is taken care of automatically.

With the 'Free' account you have to setup all your own social bookmarking accounts (only once though) in order to get started.  Next, share 5 other members' bookmarks, which is as simple as clicking a single button.  You have to do this in order to earn "credits" which can then be spent when other members share your bookmarks.  

With a paid account, you literally do nothing. Just add the bookmarks/links to your site and the rest is done for you.

I can see it's working just from looking at Google webmaster tools. You can see the backlinks being created from social media sites every week.

Does it really work though?
Yes!
I tried a little experiment to see how my site did both with and without SocialAdr. The moment I started on the Lazy plan I suddenly saw my site go up the serps. I was sceptical though, maybe it was just a fluke, or something else I had done to cause this movement. So after a couple of months I stopped. Within days my site has lost some rankings! I was amazed! I also have no idea how it had such an affect, all I know is that it did, and so I instantly went back on the paid plan, and even went up a plan as I was so impressed!

Is it worth it?
Absolutely! The wonderful thing about it is that you can join for free. Yes, that means you are getting backlinks for free! However you may want to move up to a better plan eventually, that's when I really started to see results. But even then, the Lazy plan is only $15 a month, you would pay more than this to a decent SEO company doing your social media stuffs.

Where do I sign up?
Just follow this link and it will take you to the sign up page.

Still not sure? Need it broken down into bitesize review chunks? OK here you go;

The Good
It works, and its pretty white hat. Real humans are sharing your stuff to real accounts, what more do you want!

The Bad
Not to happy that there is a cap on how many times you can sure the same url before having to pay more. Although in the long run this may end up being a good thing.
Could do with integrating the big social networks sucg as Twitter, Facebook and G+ alot more, these are the powerhouses!

The Ugly
The user interface isn' overly friendly. It might take a bit of time to find your way around, and it's not so easy to find what you need. Minor problem though, and would much prefer they focus on making a great product that works instead of a friendly UX.

I was in your position once, doing some research trying to figure out whether I really needed some Social Media Seo. I'd read some reviews, and decided I had nothing to lose from joining up for free so I went for it. I am very glad I did and hope this review will help you to decide.
