List of Indian Social Bookmarking Sites

Filed under Bookmarking

Feb 6
Bookmarking sites became a rage with the launch of digg.com. Now there are numerous bookmarking site on the net. In fact now with open source softwares like Pligg, anyone can open a bookmarking site. Today I will list the India specific bookmarking sites.

1. Indiamarks - Submitting process looks very confusing and no direct link to article. Definately not on my favoured list. However, this is a moderated site so you may not see much out out of scope topics.

2. Stamp a Story: This site uses the open source Pligg software. Nothing special about this site. Plain bookmarking site but easy to use.

3. Tagz – This site was developed using new language Django. It is still in its primitive stage and may take time to reach the optimistic level.

4. Surf Urls: This site looks good apart from little graphics defect (SURFURL logo is covering the submit button). Looks like made of Pligg and easy to use. You can even submit unlimited number of blogs. However, at the beginning you are allowed to submit only 1 link within 12 hours. If you have submited any blog then this restriction will be liffted. You can also generate adsense revenue by enterting your Google Adsense publisher ID.

5. Chalo: This site looks promising and lots of traffic. Chances of finding good info and if you submit you info here you may get good coverage.

6. DiggSamachar: A India centric clone of Digg. Do not look like a high traffic site.

7. ApnaStory: Another India centric boomarking site made of Pligg. On this one find info mainly related to bollywood, page 3 and glam world.

8. Ratevin: It looks like a new site, few contents and looks fewer traffic. If you are looking for more coverage, you may give it a miss. Site made of pligg.

9. SlashIndia: Clone of slashdot.com. Site almost dead – no post for than last 1 and 1/2 years.

10. Dolbajao: The layout of this site is a refreshing change from all Pligg used software. Though they have used Pligg, they have used a good template. Looks like it has good traffic and should give good coverage to submitted article.

11. Charchaa: The concept of Charchaa with separate picture, video categories, groups is promising. The site looks new and the promoters will have to market it properly to get wide acceptance.

12. Gyanin: Lots of content and this means traffic too. But very plain and default template of Pligg. Needs some graphical change. Btw, the site has a mobile version.

13. Jhanki: Good content and traffic. Looks like this site is professionally managed. It allows to earn money by showing Google Adsense ad on pages which you submited.

14. Newzly: Previously it was known as HumDigg. Not sure why they changed for a name without any change in quality.

15. NewsCola: Really bad layout and look. This book marking site developed by ibibo can be given a miss.

16. Yeawo: New site – has to do a lot of catching up.

17. Sepiamutiny: Have lots of contents and should have good traffic, given the overall nature of the site featuring blog, separate events section. Should give good coverage.

18. OneIndia Bookmarks: This bookmark section is part of the site oneindia.com. This site is run by the parent company Greynium. Looks like have good traffic due to the main website.

19. Indiha: As of now the site is not working.

20. BharatBoom: The site looks good and has a lot of contents too. Site made of Pligg software. Has substancial amount of foreign content, not completely Bharat.

21. Xoomly: As of now site is not working.

22. SpotOnce: Site looks good. Content mainly from celebrity and glam world. Looks like do not have much traffic. Very likely a pligg based one.

23. Vbharat: As of now site is not working – internal server error.

24. Sursaa: As of now site is not working.

25. Indiantags: Site looks good with a couple of tools like tell a friend, add link to etc. But design of the site is very ordinary. They need a make over. Site looks new but seems to have good content.

26. Indianbytes: Indian Bytes seems to be a popular Indian bookmarking site. Looks like it has good traffic and content. But layout of the site is broken.Offers ad revenue share.

27. BestofIndia: Looks like a high traffic site with lots of content. If you submit your links, it should get good coverage. Site powered by pligg. It offers a toolbar, banner exchange and couple of tools.

28. Oneview: Looks promising. Offers few tools too.

29. IndiaSphere: High traffic bookmarking site. Has different sections like video.

30. Rambhai: Design wise the site is eye catching and also receives one of the highest traffic. Launched by one IIM Ahmedabad guy. Powered by pligg.

31. HotKlix: Hotklix is launched by Indiatimes. These days the Times group is trying to prowl on net and putting their hands on every area. However, given their media reach, Hotklix has not been that successful. Mostly receives traffic from mother sites like timesofindia.com and indiatimes.com.

32. Humsurfer: Site has high traffic and good content. Though layout may not be that good. Offers a lot of tools and features.

33. Indianpad: Probably the best site in terms of traffic, content and ethics. Your link should get high coverage. Indianpad do not allow more than 3 submission at a time, thereby preventing a lot of spam.
