Getting Traffics From Social Media Sites

Social media marketing is the recent trend to drag visitors to your websites. Let’s be familiar with one of the most popular social media website "DIGG" where a user can submit news and other interesting stuffs, can make it popular and control it by a huge number of communities present on DIGG. News is submitted to various numbers of category and subcategory present on it. The most popular ones will go to the front page automatically. Users can give their vote on the topics by clicking DIGG button beside it. Doing it is very simple.

Looking for traffic then post new, interesting and unique stories. Once your story has gone to the home page you will get unique traffics over 10,000. You can find other website like propeller, yahoo buzz, Mixx, Technorati, Stumbleupon and so many others who are having same kind of function on Internet.

Collect the initial strategy - Once you have logged in first time just browse around the site for about a week and watch the activity of peoples, what kind of news were getting popular, give comments, participate in the discussion. Make your presence on digg.

Make Friends- One of the important factor is creating friends of similar kind of interest that you have. DIGG their stories and tell them to digg yours. You can do it by sending shouts. Another way to invite your friends is by clicking on "share this news" with all my friends. This may not be so effective like shouting a story but once you have more number of friends you can go for it. The more number of friends you have the more will be your digg. Be a friend of the popular users on digg, digg their stories without asking any thing in return. Promote your best online stories on digg.

Use of friend adding software- This is a software which adds friends randomly but you need to be very careful while using it other wise you might be caught by digg admin. Now when you have lot of friends invite them to digg your story of course your story must be unique and interesting for the readers. Stay in touch with friends to whom you have sent shout and who sent shout to you.

Commenting on Digg- Post your comments on popular stories having higher number of diggs also do not forget to leave your signature with link to yours.

"Digg This" Button - If you have a blog or article section, which has already a fair number of visitors. Keep a Digg this button on your posts.

Other Social Media site - Also don't forget about other social media sites participate on them also. It is easier for your stories to be on front page, as they are not having that kind of competition as digg has.

1.Digg Alerter - very handy application tool to track the status of your own stories. Shows you live dig numbers and where they are. Keep it running all day long to monitor your stories.

2. Digg This (a FireFox extension) - allows you to simply highlight text on any web page that you are on, then right click and directly submit that URL to digg, without having to fill up a large part of the digg submission form.

3. Smart Digg (a FireFox extension) - allows you to see if the web page that you are browsing on is already submitted to Digg, and if it is, how many Diggs it has received. Very handy tool if you are constantly researching for stories to submit to Digg.

4. Digg Button Animation Enabler - Excellent way to let you digg a friends story when you read it on his site, and if it has a Digg badge, without requiring you to visit Digg.com website to digg it... thus allowing remote diggs.

5. Google Reader Digg News - Excellent way to display Digg buttons, and Digg badge in your own news feed reader, so that you don’t have to visit digg each time you digg a story within your feed reader.

6. Feedit - Great way to display digg stories that hit the front page. It’s better than the digg feed because it has links to the full story, comments and submitter.

7. TINC - Who's digging you? - A great tool to find out who is digging your stories and provides links to their submissions and user profile in case you want to reciprocate.

8. Digg Comment Viewer - An excellent tool for people who comment frequently. I suggest you download this. It’s a far cleaner, better and more efficient way to see who is leaving what comments on your submissions and the posts ratings. You can easily click around to not only see your friends' comments but also what friends they have as well.

9. Social Blade FrontPage Data - Allows you to monitor the front page of Digg. It gives you the insight as to when a story reaches the tipping point, beyond which it quickly becomes popular. This information is priceless! It records the exact number of diggs when the story went popular as well as the percentage of your friends that dugg the story, along with the category and other elements.

10. Update Scanner - Lets you monitor when any page on the Internet has been updated. Especially useful for sites and pages that do not have RSS feeds. Monitoring a page, that regularly publishes good content, but that doesn’t have an RSS reader, will allow you to get to the story before other Diggers do!
