All that traffic might be good for publishers and maybe those monetizing content with ads. Not so great for lead generation or sales though.
Look beyond the traffic my friend ;)
yes, look beyond the traffic and you'll see the links. hundreds of them!!
Yeah, but I've been sans Digg for over a year and have over 690k inbound links and counting with zero "bought" links. But that's just my site.
For others, ancillary traffic and links from Digg don't seem any better than those from other social news sites or good old link bait. Will someone please post/point to a specific case study or success story showing otherwise? That would be insightful.
BTW, congrats on yet another big hit with a MSM pub Chris!
Congrats to Chris being in major news media 2x this week.
Whether Digg is the bomb or Digg is NOT the bomb...at least they turn to our commumnity for MSM insight. Congrats to Greg and Chris.
