SocialMatic – not quite impressed with

I got 3 or 4 emails from SocialMatic team few days back and finally joined the site today. On home page they say that:

But after joining realized the figure should be 21. Mistake on the home page!

It seems that people have not quite approved their aggressive marketing strategy. Read some feedbacks:


The concept behind SocialMatic is simple. Just add a site to SocialMatic and it will be added to the following list of social bookmarking sites. For this, users need to disclose username and password for all the bookmarking sites to SocialMatic.

  1. delirious
  2. bibsonomy
  3. faves
  4. xilinus
  5. buddymarks
  6. connectedy
  7. misterwong
  8. blinklist
  9. delicious
  10. yahoo
  11. blogmarks
  12. markaboo
  13. linkagogo
  14. backflip
  15. google
  16. magnolia
  17. linkroll
  18. propeller
  19. searchles
  20. linkatopia
  21. sphinn


I did not find any reason why they asked for my address in the registration form. When I went back to home page after logging in, I got logged out! I submitted one site without filling up the long username/password form and nothing happened. They need to improve a lot on both technical and marketing aspects if they wish to stay here. I am just going to forget about them after finishing this post.

First time here. Have been in the seo and content writing field for about 3 yrs now and have started a blog logging my experiences so that anyone else (prospective work at home moms ) could benefit from the info. Your blog here has some really informative content. Have bookmarked it already. Nice read.
