There is a small bookmarking widget below each product on Zazzle that will help you to quickly submit to hundreds of social bookmarking sites.
There are too many of social bookmarking sites and it's a waste of time and energy to submit to all of them. Below is the list of my favorite social bookmarking sites that you should submit your designs and stores to.

Hmm, it seems all posts on Digg include a video.
You have some great ideas here. I'll try to promote my Zazzle products more. I'll probably start with Digg. I see you put it at the top of the list. I only use SU of those five bookmarking sites you listed.
great article! check out my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/thatcrazyred...
Excellent ideas for promoting. One word of caution. For several months, I promoted like crazy on SU which resulted in dozens and dozens of Most Viewed ribbons and quite a few sales. Problem is, when SU catches on to what you're doing, they will penalize you. You'll find the number of visitors being sent dropping from dozens and even hundreds a day...down to 1 or 2. I suspect that if you limited this self promotion to one product a day, interpersed with other recommended pages, you might be able to continue doing it indefinitely. I was promoting 5-7 of my products each and every day. SU does, however, welcome promo blurbs on a pay-per-click basis. It was 5 cents per last time I checked.
@sheilamarie and @ohcaroline I'm glad that you find this article helpful. It's really important to promote your Zazzle store in order to make more sales and expose your Zazzle stores and products. SEO is also an important part of Zazzle income and I will make an article about SEO for Zazzle soon :) I hope these articles will help you to increase your Zazzle sales :)
I have to do more promoting of my Zazzle stores. Friends may visit but it's getting google visits that usually end up making sales. Thanks for putting together this list of all the avenues we need to take to get traffic to our Zazzle stores.
I am always looking for ways to promote my Zazzle products. Thanks. Sometimes I forget even the basics!
