Author Topic: How to use Digg to promote Catholic Truth (Read 692 times)

Go to www.digg.com and sign up for a free account.

When you see a good article on Cathinfo, click the "Digg" icon (found at the bottom of every article)

Type in a title, and a description.

After submitting the article, it will appear in Digg's network which is viewed by millions of people. Imagine people finding Catholic information because you submitted a story!

Also, once an article has been submitted, you can give it more votes -- that's even easier than submitting the story. The more votes a story gets, the more visible it is.

I am having a very difficult time registering a story with digg. Should I right or left click the digg icon? There seems to be no place to type in a title or description.

Just click the main part that says "Digg".

Once on their website, there is a very clear space for title and description.

Here is what it looks like after you click the Digg icon (and assuming you are logged in as a Digg member):

These Digg buttons are making my pages load noticebly slower. I have time to look down to the status bar and see that what is loading (while I wait) has "digg" in the filename.

DOWN WITH DIGG! :smash-pc:

They're making my browser cease to respond when there's a whole page of them.

No more "whole pages of them" possible.

It now places the DIGG link at the bottom of each topic -- it's not after every post anymore.

That should improve things dramatically.
