Does anyone know how long it takes for Digg and other social sites to show up in backlinks? I started creating diggs 6-7 weeks ago now and have also used other social sites (eg mixx, furl, propeller, mylinkvault). So far, only mixx has shown up on any backlinks to any of my sites. I have a similar question about ezines - how long before they show up? Do you have to link back to your ezine article with social sites etc for Google to crawl it or will G crawl it anyway in its own time?
Different social sites have different weight! The most weight site can let your backlinks be valid after 2 days,but other cannot!
Does anyone know how quickly digg and ezines show in backlinks? Do I need to bookmark ezines in order to get them indexed by Google or will they show up anyway
if you're talking about EZA (and most ezine sites) they will automatically get put into google because of the power that the sites have. But backlinking to your article will help its PR (and therefore the google love it passes on) and it will help it rise in the rankings, which is vital for bringing in traffic. So whilst you dont need to social bookmark, any extra traffic or dofollow links you use will be of benefit
totally depends on how visible your link is in Digg. Written once and dug once may never show up. Getting a 100 diggs from well connected seasoned diggers you'll see the impact within 24 hours.
My Diggs - submitted 6-9 weeks ago now - show up in Google if I put the text I used for them inside quotes but they don't show up on any backlinks anywhere. Is Digg useless for backlinks unless you get 100s of Diggs? Does anyone have any experience of submitted Diggs without lots of other Diggs and still getting backlinks?
