DIGG

[Sam1]

Has anyone used digg for marketing? I.e. submitting their articles to it? I found a forum article that way- a couple of people had joined because of it and made replies....

I am using it. But I am not getting expected traffic. Also the traffic I get is not steady!
May be I am doing it wrong!

I used to submit my articles to N4G, something similar to DIGG but for gaming articles, got a few visits, once my article was in the top 3 on the site,

Top 3?? WOW that's a fantastic achievement

Yeah it was, I was quite shocked when it got that high

Not really, twitter is for what people are having for lunch. DIGG does work quite well!

Digg is for sharing news stories, twitter is a micro blogger....

Not a lot of people use Digg though. At least, not those in the video game niche.

I always submit my posts here, and it actually makes a difference. There was a time I neglected posting here, and my stats were stagnant. After regularly posting there, I managed to get more visitors.

I think you'd have better luck in working with Reddit; niche subreddits all over the place and most are heavily trafficked.

Just don't come off as spammy, you'll get your ass handed to you.

Reddit is one of those places you should be very careful. If you are not sure about something, it better not to use reddit.
