Nowadays, younger users create their bookmarks online, at social bookmarking sites like Digg and hundreds of others. These bookmarks are “tagged” with descriptive keywords by the bookmarker. What distinguishes these “social” bookmarks from personal ones is the fact that they are viewable by the public.

Other users of a social bookmark site would come across your website if they search using any of the words with which your site has been tagged.
