What About Digg

Published by majik at 11:21 am under Blogging Tip Edit This

How many times have you been on a forum and read something about a blogger’s post making the front page of digg? What is digg? Well it is another social media website. I have not been a member of digg for very long but have already had two posts of mine dugg. You may have even seen the badge on some websites with a number with diggs beside. That is the number of users that have thought the article needed some attention.

Basically the website allows you to see who’s posted what and how popular the article is.  Another thing to keep in mind while using the website is the number of friends you have and how active you are determines how much weight your “diggs” are given.  Submitting others posts helps you to create friendships within in the sight but also on other social networks.

Most people who blog join more than one site to help bring traffic to their page.  Some people even go as far as hosting their own forums.  I have seen a few websites that will allow you to host your own forum on your own domain, but none that are free so far.  Anyway if you want to help boost traffic to your blog joining this website is a good idea.  Just remember that with all social media websites, if you want people to view your opinions you need to stay relevant and active.
