Just recently I was introduced to Tagfoot by someone within the Squidoo network. I had never heard of it before and was reluctant to even try it as there are already so many social bookmarking sites out there that it is getting difficult to keep up. Still I had to give it a go as it was relatively new – actually still in beta – and sometimes it is worth getting in early with these things in case they take off in a big way.

What is tagfoot?

Tagfoot is a social bookmarking site where people can not only bookmark their favorite websites, videos, news etc but also talk about and promote them.

How does it work?

It is simply a matter of registering and then adding any websites, news or videos that you like. I really like how easily it is to add Youtube videos and once added they are embedded automatically in Tagfoot so you don’t need to leave Tagfoot to watch them.

You don’t need to load yet another toolbar to your browser to make this work but I recommend it as it makes things a lot easier. Tagfoot also has a cool sidebar that you can download to your browser. It opens up on the left hand side of your browser with a click of a button and you can close it just as easily. It lists everything in the one handy place so you don’t need to have theTagfoot website open on your browser to do most things.

Making Friends

Making friends is a good idea in Tagfoot as you can easily share some of your best stuff with them and it is a way of helping to increase the rating on your blog posts, web pages, Squidoo lenses, Youtube videos or anything else you might have bookmarked in Tagfoot. The bigger your rating the more exposure that bookmark with receive.

Privacy Options

Tagfoot has an extensive array of privacy options which you can place on your bookmarks, your profile, your news – in fact, just about anything.

Make Money with Tagfoot

Tagfoot also allows you to make money by sharing in the profits made from Google Adsense ads. Of course you need to set yourself up with a Google Adsense account to begin with but once that is done Tagfoot will then display their ads 50% of the time and your ads 50% of the time.

Rankings

The ranking system is a fun way of keeping people wanting more by setting a score based on your activity level, how many bookmarks you add, whether your are tagging items correctly and your whether you are posting comments and rating other members bookmarks. Even so,Tagfoot ensures that you don’t go too crazy here by adding lots of stuff and rating other bookmarks in a short space of time. This can actually reduce your ranking.

Our Final Word

This is one of those very addictive sites that you can’t help but spend more time in there than you really should. I can see it becoming extremely popular. We definitely recommended it so give it a try – just don’t blame me if you don’t get any work done.

Since it is still in beta (as of the date on this blog post) you cannot register unless you are invited but I can invite you. So if you want to join just leave a comment below I will email you with an invite.
