Has this translated into a significant change in social news referrals for publishers? Anecdotally we’ve all seen Reddit gain in prominence at a time when Digg has struggled to maintain its relevancy. Conversely Digg dropped from 31+ million in 2009 down to 4.6 million visits in 2009 to 22.7 | SOSHABLE DECEMBER 20, 2011 4 Things We Expect to See from Digg in 2012 As the year comes to a close, Digg is far from dead and is poised for a rebound in 2012. Here’s what we expect (hope) to see from the social news giant: Nothing else will have any meaning if Digg doesn’t turn a profit by the middle of the year. If there’s one reason Digg brought in Matt Williams as CEO, it was his understanding of profitability and advertising development. Digg is heading in the right direction with 2 additions from 2011. Larger sites like Mashable don’t even have Digg buttons on their stories anymore. | | | | | | | ADAM SHERK DECEMBER 18, 2012 My Top Posts of 2012 on Inbound Marketing and Audience Development Social Media Questions Publishers Should Be Asking Themselves.

By way of background, here’s the 50-cent version of my Digg story: Account since 2007, active user since early 2008. 130,847 diggs, 18,960 comments, 3,466 submissions and 1,054 popular stories. Digg sxsw | SOSHABLE FEBRUARY 19, 2011 At Digg, There is Hope (and rightfully so) There seems to be a paradigm shift going on over at Digg that hearkens to the cries of users and publishers alike longing for the glory of old. It would appear that for the first time in over a year, Digg senior management is not only listening to the users, they’re acting upon what they’re hearing. Digg heard. The Future of Digg. Did you notice? | SPIN SUCKS AUGUST 9, 2012 Eight Common Blogging Mistakes I’m a fan of both Digg Digg and Jugnoo (client). There are content “farms” whose sole job is to move throughout the blogosphere and scrape (or steal) content they then publish on their own sites/blogs. This also creates a link that tells people where the content was first published, which makes the duplicate content OK in the eyes of Google. Disaster. | | | | | | | | | -
NOWSOURCING | FRIDAY, JULY 13, 2012 RIP Digg: Enter the New Social Media Frontier If you were a top Digg user, you had clout (not klout, that’s for newbies, stick with me here) in the newly emerging Web 2.0 There were other great sites like Netscape, Newsvine and Mixx where you could share content and gain eyeballs as a publisher. Digg, the once frontrunner of the pack, started mindlessly catering to the publishers only. And now Digg’s been sold. Digg has been sold to BetaWorks for 500k (ok maybe more like 16million if you count the IP rights with LinkedIn and Washington Post ). Early Times. world. People were happy. MORE >> -
SOSHABLE | TUESDAY, AUGUST 31, 2010 Digg Changes Coming Shortly? Things are looking up for Digg. Digg announced its new CEO. Kevin Rose announced upcoming changes to Digg. Reddit has not broken double-digit front page stories on Digg today (yet). While all of this may be humorous and somewhat sad, the first quote by the new Digg CEO is possibly telling as it’s the first time anyone at Digg acknowledged “content curation as a need at Digg. “The launch of version 4 was a big moment for Digg and I believe in the potential of this new platform.

LOUIS GRAY | SATURDAY, MARCH 19, 2011 For Digg and Other Web Services, 5 Years Can Be a Lifetime TechCrunch's Sarah Lacy practically writes an epitaph today for Digg following news that the company's cofounder Kevin Rose, the face of the company since its inception, had resigned to pursue a new and unannounced startup. The backdrop of her story is a detailed article she wrote on Rose and the Digg phenomenon back in 2006, when she, then writing for BusinessWeek, placed Kevin on the cover with a youthful grin and headline blaring how he was worth $60 million.
