Digg It?
I see a lot of people suggesting or trying digg as a way to generate traffic for a new site. In my experience, I don't know how effective this is. Certainly if you have a story that makes it to the front page it could generate some serious traffic.
Beyond that it might generate a trickle of one-time traffic. However, what is the long-term of even short-term benefit of this for a site? Seems to me not a whole lot. Especially since so many people do it now, and the people around Digg are very protective of the site these days and like to squash submissions that just come across as website promotions.
I am just wondering if it is really something a new website owner or novice should be worrying about. I don't think they are likely to see any substantial results and there are probably other ways for them to learn how to build traffic.
