Fighting the Digg Mafia

    I've had a lot of trouble getting my articles to be dugg. The "friends" that I have all seem very apathetic in their help and as a result, my stuff just fades away into the upcoming page with little or no interest.

    The first rule to getting on the main page is to have solid, well written content. I know that and try to provide quality links as much as possible. I only select a few articles to try to Digg, but I still seem to get nowhere.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for helping to get some decent traffic using Digg?

    Also, has anyone noticed results other than a huge spike that then drops off to nothing? Is there any kind of a long tail with submitting to Digg?

    What you've got to do is write an article about Digg, or Kevin Rose, because Digg regulars like to read about themselves...

    You need to have a good PR at Digg or a fat wallet to make it to the front page.

    False. My 2nd time submitting to digg I made front page with 2100 diggs. No buying diggs or high PR. Just good content is all you need. ;)

    Yogesh, you don't need a good PR at digg or a fat wallet. You need a web site that doesn't suck. If you are bitter, thats your problem. If people liked your site, it would be dugg.
