Build your Own Digg Army Inside Digg itself

 Well, this post is not meant to teach you any tricks to game or cheat digg, but to help you get diggs from your friends. As I said earlier Digg is all about networking, you digg articles submitted by your friends and they’ll digg back. As simple as that.

You might be thinking “Isn’t it time consuming?”, nope it isn’t, you can digg all stories submitted by your friends from a single page itself (http://www.digg.com/users/<your username>/friends/submitted). Keep digging and wait for your friends to digg, that’s how it works. Most of the top digg aren’t uber geeks or hi-fi bloggers, their just gamers or someone like you and me, but they are well networked. So ask you friends to add your as their digg buddy.

PS: You can also add me as your friend on Digg

    So true. Digg is just another social networking site (in the form of bookmarks, of course), so it is logical that the more you network, the better you’ll do.

    Glad you’re my Digg buddy. :D

    I think whn digg was updated to v2 they have done an algorithm change so that friends voting for each other take longer time to show up on the front page

    Hardik: Maybe, but Digg what’s this to happen.

    BTW, have you added me to Digg?

    Have added you. It’s a good idea to start your own network, but Digg can be extremely irritating at times!

    Ajay: Yeah, I have added you as a Digg buddy long long time ago. Check your mutual friends
