How to Create and Promote a Link on Digg

The Digg social sharing website can be a useful tool for promoting links. Digg allows users to submit URLs and share the submissions on Facebook or Twitter, and other Digg visitors can vote on each link. Content can quickly gain exposure if many Digg users find the link useful or interesting.

Step 1

Browse to Digg.com and click the "Sign In" button. Select Facebook or Twitter as your login source. Enter your Facebook or Twitter user credentials and click "Log In."

Step 2

Click "Submit a Link." This option is located on the bottom of the Digg homepage. A submission form appears.

Step 3

Type the URL that you wish to promote on Digg. Include the address to the specific page you want to
share, such as "http://www.example.com/article.html," and click "Submit."

Step 4

Click on the "Search" bar. Enter the name of the link that you have shared and press "Enter." Locate the story on the list of results and click the "Share" button.

Step 5

Select "Tweet This" to share the link on Twitter, or select "Share to Facebook" to promote the page on your Facebook profile. The Digg story will appear to your followers on these social networking sites.
