Digg is all the rage these days with everyone trying to make it to the front page to try and get more traffic to their sites. I’m a huge fan of Digg myself, visiting the site atleast 20 times a day. When digg started, the topics that made to the front page seemed to be very diverse but I have to say that nowadays things seem to be getting a bit repetitive. The stories making to to front page seem to do more and more with a handful of topics that are getting somewhat tiring.
After spending a little bit of time I came up with a list of things one has to do or the topics one can write about to make it to the front page. This is by no means a sure shot way but it does seem to have worked from what the numbers show.
- Add “AMAZING” to the title (more than 20 pages in the past 60 days)
- Apple related(25 in the past 2 days)
- Google related(10 in past 2 days)
- Gaming Consoles (PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 combined) related (28 in past 2 days)
- AJAX (5 in past 2 days)
- Firefox (3 in past 2 days)
- A “howto” for just about anything (23 in the last month)
- CSS related
Try it out for yourself. See how far you get. But don’t submit any junk articles. I’m sure you’ll get much more than the usual 8 – 12 Diggs I’ve previously gotten.
Digg if you agree.
