    This is not my website, but rather my own review of DiggFreak.com.

    I've had a really bad experience with them and am not about to waste 15 minutes of my time ranting about why you shouldn't be using them. I'll sum it up real short and hope I can save some users the trouble of dealing with the staff of this site.

    Type of site: Diggfreak is a Digg & Stumble Upon exchange website. You can earn votes for your own stories by Digging/Voting on other members' stories/articles.

    Short Story: First of all, I have used similar sites with great success. When dealing with Diggfreak I decided to purchase credits to have others digg my article. My articles are ALWAYS digg-worthy - that is something I am sure of before submitting them to the site, as to not contribute to trash being bumped up on a quality bookmarking site.

    I started my campaign and others began digging. The problem: Members are required to leave comments (unlike the other voting exchange sites) which inevitably led to ridiculously idiotic comments such as, "Nice article", "cool", "Great!" along with a slew of other fragmented phrases and one-word comments.

    I noticed this almost immediately after starting the campaign for my Digg article and contacted the administrator of DiggFreak and asked him to promptly remove my article from his site before Digg took it down. No response, the story was taken off of digg most certainly because of the dumbed down comments. I was left with 55 of my 100 credits gone for that particular story.

    I did happen to receive a response 5 days later after I filed a dispute with PayPal (how nice of him to finally get back to me). His reply was-

    PayPal - This is digital goods. Purchase was made, goods were delivered

    He flat our refused to refund all or part of my purchase. Obviously without any regard for customer satisfaction.

    I would not recommend this site for anyone. Two alternatives that actually work well and have stand up guys running them are subvert and profit and piqq.

    As for DiggFreak.com, I've obviously had my problems with them and can't imagine the owner of this site as being the type of person to take initiative in trying to resolve his/her customers' problems with his service. I wouldn't recommend this site to anyone.

    Mods; I believe this is in the correct category - if not, my apologies. Please let me know if it is moved.

    Truly sad, that you have the time in your life to write such things just because you wrote a crappy article and tried to scam digg.com using a service like diggfreak, you are a cheater and you deserve what you get. Trading diggs at http://www.diggfreak.com is a good experience for all the other users theres no other bad words about it online besides yours.
