that might take care of people using digg spam as a method for backlink building, but it doesn't stop using digg as a method of traffic generation. well played by digg i say. will take care of a lot of senseless spamming.Comment

That's a joke right?
@ OP - This seems to be what everyone is aiming at these days. Keep all the traffic within their site.
I can see why Digg is doing it, keeps people on their site/other methods of displaying advertisements etc... but at the same time most if not all people who use Digg click links read/look then return to Digg for more links....
There are still other big link directorys to submit too who don't have this BS toolbar

My problem with it is the fact they will be ranking their site for your content. Their site carries a lot of weight in the search engines so if you make a blog post, and it's dugg, most likely they are going to outrank you for the content. Might even wipe your page out because of duplicate content.Comment

it's just a frame, use a framebreaker. if the framebreaker won't do the trick for you, use digg's authority to your advantage and build digg lp's specifically for ranking your digg url in the serps as you would a squidoo lense or a hubpages hub.
don't hate the game, play it...Comment

if Google had their shit together, Digg's techniques would be looked at as sort of a blackhat method and they would ban all but the homepage of Digg.com completely from the serps

I think it's great... Why the fuck should a company like Digg allow spammers to spam the shit out of their sites to make money? Do you let people spam your sites to make money? No... If you want to ride of their coat tails, play by their rules.Comment

Other than Spammers also submit good shit, and if you take the spammers away from Digg - All the good shit is going to be gone. Making them just another lame ass news source of the same repeated articles that everyone else has.
Anyone using Digg for traffic - Kinda retarded... but now that no value is passed, the entire thing is useless. News wise, Mixx and many others are better than Digg - but at least you could get 'other shit' with Digg - but that other shit, was spam.Last edited by TheDoc; 04-07-2009, 06:11 AM.

i think there's a lot of over reaction to this move by digg. no, this is not the 'end of digg'. it is not the end of spammers on digg, or the end of digg's usefulness to webmasters. or is it? the sky is falling!
over 500? lol...Comment

I read somewhere that between 30 to 50 sites 'monopolize' the digg frontpage.Comment

as someone who builds up retarded amounts of traffic quickly from viral content... i would say this doesn't matter at all. if you have anything worth sharing.. then digg is just a jumping off point and a way to get eyes and to get people sharing. the links are worth next to nothing anyway and are only indexed for a brief time and so on.Comment

Good point. Fresh and compelling content is the key. However, this does increase the size of the speed bump to get content viralized.as someone who builds up retarded amounts of traffic quickly from viral content... i would say this doesn't matter at all. if you have anything worth sharing.. then digg is just a jumping off point and a way to get eyes and to get people sharing. the links are worth next to nothing anyway and are only indexed for a brief time and so on.Comment
