It’s my dream to be Dugg. But I guess I’d better work on broadening my network of readers from a handful to a ton.

[...] When you have added a few starter articles, try to come up with an article that could generate a lot of attention/traffic. This is tough and is a hit and miss thing…so you’ll have to use trial and error till you get the feel of it. Again, Darren provides another article on this subject. [...]

I recently got dugg and I had a small factual error in my post. About 20 people sent me an email informing me of my error and I quickly fixed it :D

It’s like having 10,000 editors on your site.

Razib: Well, not just good writing, you have to kinda write stuff that’s more tailored to their tastes, I guess.

Very impressive stat. Sites like Digg given bloggers the best channel to promote their works. Of course, the writing has to be very good.

I just wish they would open up a bit more categories soon. Or at least more sub categories.

Shane I didn’t notice any traffic from netscape to that post – but thanks for putting it on.

btw – netscape is down for me at the moment – I’ve had lots of issues trying to log into it over the last few days.

What I am wondering is how many people visited your page from netscape, since I put it on netscape a day and a half before it was on Digg. Anyway I know Netscape is still in beta, so you might not have gotten a ton of hits. Don’t believe me check out this link.

I just got dugg yesterday and have received about 20,000 uniques in 3 days as a result. 1504 diggs and counting! ;)

If your blog gets too many hits and if it goes offline, try to use http://www.duggmirror.com/

DuggMirror automatically caches the URL of each story submitted to Digg. If a site goes down because of a server overload or for exceeding its bandwidth, you can use the [[Dugg]] link to access it. We recommend that you try the normal link first and then use the [[Dugg]] link if the site is not available.
