Digg.com: SEO Secret Weapon

Do you believe the myth that it may take months before you can get a new site to rank in Google?

It's a lie perpetuated by SEO experts who have something to sell you -- an ebook or URL submission service.

It may seem to have taken a long time to get indexed and searches from Google in the past, but today things are different.

There's a website that Google likes. Google likes it so much that new content posted to the site can get indexed immediately.

The website is Digg.com, a community of users who discover and share the content they've found on the web with each other.

To become a user and post content, you must first register. Although many people post stories found everywhere on the web, Digg does allow you to post some of your own content as long as you don't over do it.

You basically write a brief description of the article you have on your own site. The title of the story you post is a link that goes directly to the article page of your site.

Google will find your new content through this link and index it. Visitors from Google will then find your web page while doing their searches.

This all can happen within 24 hours, usually less... It sounds unbelievable because we've all been brainwashed to expect it to take much longer.

If your site has a topic people on Digg.com have an interest in, you should expect to also get traffic directly from them.

Users on Digg.com who like your post will visit your site and vote on it by giving it a Digg. The more Diggs you get, the potential for your story to move up or get promoted under its topic page on the Digg website increases.

If users don't like your story, they can bury it. It's the users or community who decide if a story should be promoted or buried. Digg does not use editors, because it believes it's voting and user-reporting system will determine what content should remain on the site. When you use Digg.com, it's important to follow their rules or TOS. Post unique quality content worth sharing and don't get caught spamming or creating multiple accounts.

Digg.com is just one of the many social networking sites out on the web.
