17Jun I’ve Also Been Digg-ing
A useful resource for driving traffic to any website is www.digg.com. You sign up, and if you find an article you like, simply “digg it”, i.e. submit it to digg.com. A link to the page you have posted, along with a brief summary, then appears on Digg and can be read by other users. If they like the story they too can “digg it” which is much like voting an article or “liking” something in Facebook. Once your post has a certain number of diggs it is moved to the home page of the section you posted it in. If the article reaches a critical mass of diggs it is moved to the digg home page. When that happens, you can be sure of some major traffic.
I haven’t been getting very good results with my diggs and I know why. I haven’t yet invested enough time on the Digg site to build my network. As with all social networks, you need to invest some time, making friends, making comments on other people’s posts (intelligent comments- not spam) and getting to know- and work- the neighbourhood.
It’s an investment, ya digg?
