There are a few disadvantages...first of all is that most of the social bookmarking links are no follow so you can't really and fully benefit. In terms of traffic this might be low quality or untargeted (obviously depending on the niche you deal with).

Yes we will get traffic but not targeted traffic. Some of the site wont give back links. Till now visitors from bookmarking sites haven't bought any products from our site. This clearly shows that we can use this one for brand awareness.

Social bookmarking has many advantages. It can help increase your site's traffic provided that your submitted link/story has eye-catchy title and description and with interesting and useful content. It can also help increase your site's backlinks provided that they are dofollow...

I think the disadvantage of social bookmarking is that they may increase the bounce rate of your site.

That explanation works for me... Especially, if you have a B2B website this traffic is mostly useless.
