After some playing around, I’ve found that submitting your stories to Reddit.com will send a lot more visitors to your site than Digg.com. So far, I’ve been experimenting with Digg, StumbleUpon, and recently Reddit. When I launched the new version of my site on the first of this month, I submitted most of my content to Digg, and got around 40 some unique visits to my website. So far, I’ve received 70 referral hits from Digg. StumbleUpon is not as impressive as it has only given me 16 visitors to this date. The surprising part came yesterday, when somebody (not me, but thanks to whoever it was) submitted one of my stories to Reddit, and I got a noticeable amount of hits from there.

Today I decided to try what I’ve done with Digg 2 weeks ago. I submitted most of my content to Reddit, and as a result my site has reached an all time high on the visitor count. Get ready for it: 1,031 unique visitors JUST TODAY! It went quite fast too, and it’s only 3 PM now, and I’m thinking about submitting some more of my content. On the other hand, I might want to save some for later, but my members and I can always write new Ramblings.

The sad part is that it’s not anything meaningful in terms of finance. It would have been nice if each one of those visitors earned me a bit of money. The next step, naturally, would be to put products on the site, and play the same strategies. If affiliate programs promise you a certain turnover rate, then it will only be better if you can get thousands of visitors to your website.

This social book-marking marketing is becoming interesting now, so I would like to see what the other experts here at WGG think about it. Please express it in comments here.
