Digg-like and collaboration tools

On news aggregators, you can either add an article or post a resume and link to an article from your website. The name Digg-like comes from ratings, as the original site, Digg was successful due to this principle.

After all, most of them allow visitors to assign a rating, which is done by clicking on the image representing the number of points received. Some sites allow you to place a similar button on your site, so your visitors, by clicking on the article, simultaneously increase the number of clicks indicated on the summary of the joint site. Almost all of these sites will add a back link to your site.

Digg-like at all, French or not, is losing speed to Twitter, which offers an unabashed alternative to discovering articles.

Bookmark

The idea of ​ ​ going public with your favorites and sharing them with others seems to have been found by the site del.icio.us, bought out by Yahoo and delicious.com. He made a lot of emulsions.
In fact, the idea of ​ ​ social bookmarking has become widespread and is found on social networks, and some diggy likes have a simulation job.

• Blogmarks.net
• Created in 2005. Provides APIs for developers to use data.
• Bookmarks.fr
• Quite rudimentary, however, gives quick visibility to your latest articles.
• Yoolink.fr

Digg-like, promotion and binding

Douglas and bookmark sites bring backlinks? Looking at the statistics of Google webmaster tools, you can find links from the following sites: Bluegger, Bookmarks, Diggons, Fuzz, Nuouz, Tapemoi.

These results should be weighed against several comments:

• Some sites only link to articles that go to Home (La One).
• The backlinks of such sites are often volatile: tickets are erased after one or more months to facilitate the database! (They are constantly on bookmarking sites such as Delicious and Stumbleupon).
• The PageRank contribution is zero, so the backlink weight is also zero.

Thus, diggy likes are an accessory for bringing a little traffic and making a statement, but can only become one of the foundations of SEO for news blogs whose interest in tickets is limited in time.

Only English diggy likes (that is, for a page written in English or on an image) bring an audience of up to 50,000 in one day for Digg or Reddit (in my own experience).

Critic

All sites mentioned in the previous chapter were closed due to spam. Not the brutal spam of webmasters who send all the articles on their site, but the more subtle of the groups of bloggers who advertise on social sites, as well as fake accounts.
In June 2012, Reddit banned links to such prestigious sites as Business Week, Physorg, The Atlantic, as they organized click-through networks to promote their articles.

In the Wikipedia article, we saw how you can manipulate the content of a joint site using multiple accounts. The same manipulations are performed on diggy likes, which bring the most visitors.
This practice may be responsible for the erosion of virtually all digg likes in French and extends to American sites such as Digg and Reddit as well.
However, you should not offer your tickets. If they are quality, they can appeal to readers and appear on One, then collect back links.

And it is not the owners of these sites who can blame them for this. In June 2012, Steve Huffman, one of the co-founders of Reddit, said that at its beginning the site was inhabited by hundreds of fake accounts, created by them only to create the impression that the site has contributors!

• Digg-like beads. Humor.

Digg, a very desirable house

The success of Digg, a US bookmark and news site that receives 10,000 applications a day and has 1 million visitors, has spawned many emulations that have achieved some success in France in particular.

The double collusion was uncovered in 2009. On the one hand, a group of "liberals," by which we mean those who want to change everything except what suits them, called "VestList," works together to promote articles by members of the group and bury articles from competing and especially conservative sites.
Before them act "conservatives," by which they meant those who do not want to change anything, except if it bothers them, formed a cartel in a group called Digg patriots, who work together to do the same in favor of conservative ideas. They bury liberal articles and skip the websites of club members to the "House."

According to Digg's statistical study, 46% of the articles that go to Home came from only 50 sites!
The list is given in the study, these are sites that are included in the whitelist (a preferential list compiled by the algorithm), which does not necessarily mean that their articles are better than others.

How to implement digg-like

On the network you can find all the source code of this type of site and many articles about their work.

• Marx. If you are a webmaster and are interested in the rating system used by the above sites, then this JavaScript case study with source code will allow you to install such a system on your site.
• Bookmarkly - full source code for the site bookmarkly.com .
• CMS Pligg and PHPDug also offer complete scoring software.
• Monocle is a link and news aggregator whose source code is available on GitHub and which provides a Reddit-like interface.
• Wordpress has an add-on that allows readers to assign articles to a note. Articles can be posted to non-visitors with editor status, see Wordpress and CMS article.

• Calculate positioning on Hacker News is a simple formula depending on the number of votes and the time elapsed since the submission. This article, how hacker news really works, is a study of the positioning formula that takes into account possible fines.
• Calculating the positioning on Reddit relative to H.N. further adds the effect of negative voices. Novelty is also a more important factor. Applications are often rejected by competitors to improve their communications, and thus end up in the spam basket.
