Digg is a powerful online social networking community to promote your site.

How does Digg Work?

Someone will submit a specific url to digg. Once this is done it has been dugg. Other users can then digg it(positive vote) or bury it(negative). A new submission will stay on digg in the submitted category as long as there is enough diggs(compared to bury it’s) to keep it. Most submissions get just a handful of diggs with a big burst of traffic. Then it quickly tapers down and halts a few days later. You will have to either get lucky, seriously abuse the system, or have one very popular article to keep your submission to the top with tons of steady diggs for weeks.

Quality of Digg Traffic:

Most have reported that the Digg traffic, generally is the younger more immature crowd. They usually have a short attention span and don’t become subscribers or repeat visitors. I think humour and video type sites will do best on a site like Digg because of the audience demographics.

Integrating Digg into your website:

If you have a wordpress blog you can get a Digg it wordpress plugin.
