My bolding. Yes, social networking and social media optimization is part of the same dimension in my personal view. Like Aaron Wall, you are sceptical. I wrote a
follow up article about this a few days later, where his and other sceptiscism are expressed.
Having a bookmark button at the bottom of a story can not hurt, or can it eat too much bandwith for 0.001 cent/100views?
Note: Wall's conclusion.
Private conclusion: Aaron Wall is perhaps not objective since he has his own (me included) affiliate network.
