New algorithms based on Suzuki-Trotter decomposition of exponential operators are proposed for the numerical integration of motion equations for spin systems. The main advantage is the conservation of spin length and energy. The integration schemes (up to fourth-order) are compared to a fourth order predictor-corrector method. It is demonstrated that the new methods can be used with much larger time steps.
