Digg is a ‘social news site’ that allows users to ‘digg’ (rate up) or ‘bury’ (rate down) websites. When a user ‘diggs’ a site they are also able to write a small review, letting other people know what they think and their experiences have been with the company. Other users of the site could then see what had recently been ‘dugg’ and then go on to rate it themselves. This would allow users of the site to share a site they found interesting with more people than might see it without it being ‘dugg’. The latest version of Digg now allows people to become friends with each other, and therefore follow what each other is ‘digging’ making the site even more of a social network.
Digg brings advantages to businesses by allowing them to ‘digg’ their own business and therefore this can bring it to the attention of other people. Digg can also bring SEO value to a business’s website. When a site is ‘dugg’ a link is put on the users profile that links to the page they have ‘dugg’. This then contributes to the external links going to the site and also helps to bring more traffic to the site via the Digg website.Our tip for Digg- Don’t become a Digg spammer. Just digg your site once using your own profile, over time interest will build around it and more and more people will visit. If you Digg using multiple profiles that is obvious to the Digg admin team they will remove all of the false accounts and you will have wasted your time.
