When people bookmark your blog on Del.icio.us, they are indirectly giving important feedback about your site. The text notes and tags that people attach to your site while saving it on del.icio.us gives a fairly good idea about what they think of your blog.
And tracking this information is again very simple. Visit delicious.com/url and type the URL of your blog.
The page has a list of all delicious users who have bookmarked you, what tags they used to describe your site and user notes, if any.
At the bottom, you will see an Orange RSS icon - add it to your RSS reader and whenever people add you to their delicious favorites, the RSS reader will notify you.
Alternatively, you can subscribe to the following URL in any newsreader like Google Reader or Bloglines. [replace xyz.com with your blog URL]
http://del.icio.us/rss/url?url=http://xyz.com/

Is there a way to get results also for article pages without having to check for each URL ?

Now to get this across all the social bookmark services, kind of what Technorati does for the blogosphere, we need a service to do this for the bookmarkosphere.
The other thing I'd like to see is for the del.icio.us URL history to show you how many times any post from your domain has been bookmarked. At the moment you can only see a URL history for your home page or posts, etc...but what about all bookmarks of your domain full-stop...Spurl do this and also Simpy, see my post (sub heading called Site bookmarks):
Also check out the del.icio.us linkback bookmarklet, this will display the number of times a page has been bookmarked in del.icio.us along with comments:
