10/27/06 12:34 AM: Top 7 ways to get a useless article Dugg

So lately there has been a flurry of lists getting frontpagged on the social news site, Digg. These range from top mistakes made by startups, to ways to launch a successful blog, and now how to generate high quantities of content for your blog

Personally, I don’t really dig digg. I don’t really read Slashdot anymore either, but tend to just look at top bookmarks on delicious or Technorati. But in any case, it seems clear there are some really easy ways to get an article on Digg.

1. Write a list that’s related in some way to blogging. Give it a title such as the top 10 ways to put annoying social bookmarking links on your site. These ideas can mostly be common sense, the idea is to put them all in one place. If you can, throw in some tips about making more money using Google Adsense. For a bonus, be sure to mention the terms RSS, Ajax, JavaScript, Ruby on Rails, CSS, or XML.

2. Write about how to make Mozilla Firefox do something, anything. Such as maybe, “How I downloaded Mozilla Firefox.”

3. Pay one of the top Diggers to post your article.

4. Find an article that has appeared on Digg before, take the content, put it on your blog and submit it.

5. Talk about the iPhone, the iTV, or Steve Jobs.

6. Find a “hidden feature” in GMail or any other Google Application.

7. Call something the next YouTube.

Just follow those steps, then sit back and watch a few thousand people come to your site. It’s likely maybe 1% will become repeat visitors. In the spirit of this article though, to sum up: a lot of users using Apple OS X on an Intel Mac will view your web 2.0 blog using Mozilla Firefox 2.0. These users will most likely belong to several social networking sites and some of them may be prominent Diggers trying to raise start-up capital for what might just be the next YouTube.
