How to Block Obnoxious Digg Shouts

ltdraper — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 22:00:00 +0100

Sometimes your Digg friends just don't know when to quit.

We've all seen the person that seems to have just discovered the shout button and sends us 20 spams, er shouts, a day. We've been smart enough to turn off the email notfication for new shouts, but it's still clogging up our shout pages.

We don't want to lose them as a friend, because frankly they send good stuff once in a while and they d [...]

You're going to want to install the PMS Digg Shouts Greasemonkey Script right away.

As we've said many times before, if you want to be effective on Digg, you need a large friend network. But more importantly, your
friends need to be the type of friends that will be receptive to your shouts and Digg your articles if they like them. And the best
way to have good friends is to be a good friend.

That means that you need to actively evaluate and Digg your incoming shouts. People [...]

Greasemonkey Script to Quickly Delete Your Shouts in Digg

Don — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:00:00 +0100

Sometimes you just slap your head because a very hard problem has such a simple answer.

If you use Digg, you're well aware how painful it is to delete your incoming shouts if you have a large number of friends. And of course,
if you're serious about promoting anything on Digg, you'll have a lot of friends. After a week of vacation over the 4th of July, I
recently came back to 50 pages of incoming shouts. That's a lot of clicking on the delete button and the "Are You Sure you want [...]

Converting Traffic to Value

admin — Mon, 10 Mar 2008 21:00:00 +0100

It is a truism that
"you have to have the right traffic" to convert. Convert people to what? Well, it depends:

RSS readers
Subscibers
Ad clicker-throughers
eBook downloads
And so on....

At the end of the day it is about converting people to a vaulable asset.

And I don't disagree with any of that because we have been experimen [...]

Yahoo Store SEO Analyzer

What if there was a free tool for your Yahoo Store that:

Suggests better keywords you could be using in each page in your store?
Shows your PageRank for every product in your store?
Shows your backlink counts for every product in your store?
Shows how well you're using meta tags for every product in your store?

Wouldn't you jump all over that?

Yahoo Stores are a powerful and relatively simple to use ecommerce solution but they [...]

SEO Tools or SEO Content

admin — Sun, 24 Feb 2008 21:00:00 +0100

This is a really interesting question. The two primary places I go to learn tips and tricks in the SEO world are the guys over at SEOMoz (disclaimer: we subscribe) and Aaron Wall of SEOBook fame. Ok, I have a bit of a crush on John Chow's business model and I think ShoeMoney, Dosh Dosh and a buncha others are awesome too.

Tools with Content the Key

But Rand and Aaron are also tool providers. But they're pretty clearly tool providers who are monetizing ot [...]

admin — Sun, 17 Feb 2008 09:00:00 +0100

We all know that efficient and wide ranging friending on Digg is a critical success factor (CSF) for digg story promotion. Yes, yes, I know, first you have to write the worlds most awesome link bait. But you still have to be able to get enough people to vote in the beginning to get it above the crowd.

I was gonna write something clever, but that picture just makes me clench, so let's go straight into..... [...]

This is a big weekend here at Promote My Site because we're moving servers, shuffling software around, changing DNS, upgrading this and that. Oh, and putting two free SEO Tools out. Phew. I'd be nervous but the technical guys threw me out at 5pm and locked the door behind me. All they'd say was: Don't Panic.

Impending Free Product Launch

admin — Sat, 19 Jan 2008 00:00:00 +0100

Everyone loves free, but not me. So when someone came up with a relatively easy to implement product we had two choices:

Put it on the post-launch list and get to it in a few months
Give it away for free now

Well, I don't believe in free, so we'll be 'giving' away this service, but there will be ads on the pages around this service. Not because a few thousand people seeing a page with advertising is going to generate major operating income, but because who can tr [...]
