How to cheat your way to the top of Digg.com
By Marcus Austin,
What you can expect
It really depends on the story and the popularity of digg on that day, a story might bring you a couple of thousand users per hour, or it might bring you much, much more, sites have seen an increase of 5-10,000 visitors per day and that will last for about five to seven days.
Ideally you want it to be on the front page when the US wakes up to get the maximum audience, so a front-page at the end of the day in the UK is ideal, unless you want a UK and European audience. In addition, Digg isn't so hot at the weekend so optimally you should try and get the pages up for the US Monday morning ie late Monday here. You'll probably also get some secondary hits from del.icio.us and other places which should prolong the effect to a week and possibly further.
