Not at all. Bookmarks are no indication of the quality of the content or a website as a whole.

If there were any truth to this, it'd be ridiculously easy to game the system - think of a large company with thousands of computers in their offices, they could have their IT team pre-install Chrome with any number of bookmarked links they want - way too easy.
