Source : http://www.earnpros.us/2008/06/money-from-digg.html "Guess how much maximum money can a person generate if his story reaches frontpage and you would be surprised !" "A few of my stories have reached digg's <http://www.digg.com/> frontpage and on an average it generated about ~40-50$ whenever it reached." "The figure in my mind was that on a maximum a person could make around 300$ if his story reaches frontpage." "But there are many pros in the market who are raking in some really good money." "Shoemoney <http://www.shoemoney.com/> recently claimed on his blog that he generates on average 3,000$ per frontpage story which is awesome and about 10 times that i though you could make from advertising ." "But he isn't the only one , are many more who are tight lipped on the amount that they are making . For example Techcrunch <http://www.techcrunch.com/> generates about 15$ from every thousand pageviews which could mean that they generate more than 1500$ from a frontpage story ."
I knew that you got alot of traffic if you reached the front page, but I never thought you could generate thousands of dollars from this. I figured most of the traffic was from webmasters that wouldn't click the ads. But thats pretty impressive.
I can't believe that digg front page will fetch you this much $$$. How much a person will collect to make our story to hit the digg front page?
Your hosting has to also be apply to take all the traffic that will come from the front page all at once.
Hosting will take your 30-40 Dollars when ever you will reach on Digg's Front Page. In order to be on Diggs Front Page you need to have dedicated server hosting your site and not any ordinary shared hosting..
Thats a lot. From being on this forum everyday. For some one to get your front page of digg cost roughly $70. But that was a while back now and diggs are banned :-(
Interesting, I've been trying for a bit but haven't got my story on the front page. I've been close though!
I can believe the figures after all getting on the front page will get you a fair old amount of traffic.
One is quite fortunate to be on the Digg homepage! Must take a lot of work prior. But, seems well worth it.
Wow thats awesome.. I ONCE I got a lot of traffic from SU (over 20K unique a day) but the time the visitors spend on my page was awful like 30 sec to 2 min max, and the clicks was not so good at all.. I think im doing it wrong
Hello! I'm completely new to this Digg thing... Pardon my ignorance, but can anybody tell me how to do it? You can PM me if you like. Thanks!
