Want To Learn How To Exploit Digg Comments For Traffic?
If you answered Yes, you came to the right place. One of the most underused techniques when it comes to generating traffic from Digg is comments.
Lets say you have a website you want to promote that you cant necessarily submit a bunch of posts from to hit the Digg front page. No problem! Now keep in mind that comments will send you traffic but nowhere near as much as a front page submission would generate.
Now for an example 
Lets say your promoting…. Netgear routers for whatever reason and your site / splog has all kinds of Netgear router information. Your first step is to pull up Google and construct a simple little query as follows: “[keyword] site:digg.com”. For us this looks like:
Okay, now as you can see from Google’s 238 results there are plenty of places to drop some comments. The next step is going to be finding pages that dont have too many comments on them. I would say a good rule of thumb is stay away from any pages that have the ‘click to see more comments’ bar as most people wont be finding your link. I have dropped links on pages with 30+ comments and still get 300+ hits a day from those pages. Its all about finding pages as close to the top of googles results as possible.
What this will insure is that not only will people browsing Digg see your links, but unsuspecting people who happen to find the Digg page from a search will also be greated with your link. The next step is to write out your comment. Simply dropping a link will not work. Try to intice people or provide them a little info on the site. In our Netgear Routers example you could use something as follows:
“Hey, this router has some major security issues. You can read about them at http://www.yournetgearblog.com and find more secure routers too!”
As you can see this idea is very simple but just requires a bit of enginuity and creativity to work well. I can tell you that if you hit terms that people are doing searches for (more than browsing Digg for) you can actualy get some very nice conversion rates. Another little hint I will let you in on is that to find these search pages keep in mind that you dont have to use pages that made the front page of Digg…
Now that you can exploit Digg comments, get out there and make some cash.
How can you tell what the exact search term was on google to arrive at the digg page as a search result?
Thanks buddy. This smells relaly cool idea to get more traffic. Now i am adding your web site to my rss reader. Hope i will read more useful articles from you.
