  10.11.07 | Permalink | 27 Comments

  Ever since Google came out openly with its stance about advertisers and link sellers who try to manipulate Google’s PageRank algorithm, there has been a great deal of unrest in the blogosphere. You can hear angry voices coming from virtually all directions.

  I really find it laughable that many of the well reputed bloggers have succumbed to the temptation of crying foul against Google. They think Google has penalized them for selling links, OK fair enough. Wait.. they also think that Google is manually penalizing their site to rank low in SERPs, and that Google has set spies to trawl through the world wide web to catch the criminals red-handed. This is where their paranoia becomes evident.

  09.25.07 | Permalink | 18 Comments

  Every blog has good and bad, pretty and ugly, and noble and ignoble features. If a blog provides quality content, I’ll probably ignore its less wonderful aspects, but things get worse when a blogger almost completely forgets the usability of his blog and does whatever random things come to his mind.

  Top 11 Digg-like Sites For Bloggers, Designers, And Web Developers

  09.19.07 | Permalink | 30 Comments

  Anyone who has tried to get to the Digg front page knows how hard it is to do that. You need a lot of friends, influence, and need to be a top member apart from writing quality content before you can dream of meeting success on Digg.

  On Digg-clones, on the other hand, it’s relatively easy to get the attention you deserve. Many niche specific Digg-style sites have emerged over the past few months where you can submit stories to be reviewed and voted by those who are interested in your content. Though, you may not get as much traffic from niche social media sites as you would from Digg, it’s worth having your content read by the like-minded people who are more likely to become your regular readers.

  Below is a list of 11 most popular Digg-like sites where bloggers, designers, and web developers can submit stories (their bog posts or whatever) to promote their content.
