I've been recieving tons of traffic from Digg when I submit news and videos from my Gaming blog. However, now they've blocked my url saying I've spammed the submission system. I've tried del.icio.us , but I'm not getting anything from there. I'm wondering if any other bloggers have had success with other news submission sites and if so, please post a link, I'd really appreciate any advice, I'm new to the blog scene and really want this site to be successful.
I have had more success with Stumble Upon than any of the others. I hate digg because they have so any rules but allow crap to filter through. Try stumble upon.
Yes Digg does that to members that keep submitting stories to promote themselves. What you must do sometimes is submit articles that aren't for your promotion. But don't worry, in about 2-3 weeks Digg will unban your Ip address, and you can use them again.
Ah sorry didn't realize. Well, then the problem is alot easier to overcome. You can use sites like tinyurl.com that will change the url. Or set up a redirection page to your site.
That's what you get for spamming DIGG Stumble Upon is pretty good, probably the next best thing lately. Reddit is decent and Technorati is good for blogs.
Redirection pages like tinyurl arent allowed by Digg. Try and submit one and you will see. You will have to create a redirect on a different site! Once your URL is blocked you are in trouble. Were you digging each and every post? or just about every post?
I think sites have been unbaned before (johnchow.com), anwayz try stumble upon or reddit or even topix.net
