Are You A Digg user?
If you are, you may want to read this post that I just read on the WebProNews site.
Apparently at least one top Digg user (dubbed “Digg Throat”) has been getting paid, and quite well I might add , to promote articles on Digg. For $700 dollars “Digg Throat” will submit your article for you and promote it. If it makes it to Diggs front page it will cost you another $500. “Digg Throat” claims that this is a relatively common practice among the Digg power user community and has no plans to stop the practice. Now this may seem like small price to pay for the amount of traffic that being on Diggs front page will bring, but it does seem to go against the whole premise of users determining the best content.
“Digg Throat” was interviewed by Khalid of the Invesp,com blog and you can read the entire interview there.
