Unfortunately Digg banning is nothing new. John Chow has been banned from Digg for nearly two years now after getting something like 40 articles to the front page.

Even in the past six months or so, its become increasingly harder to get anything of my own from my tech site on the front page… so much so that I’ve pretty much given up hope in trying.

Good luck to the rest of you bloggers and making the front page – the traffic increase is crazy. Just make sure your server can handle it!

I agree with you, it’s not fair to discriminate against blogging content, ah well

Andreas… I don’t see a problem with that either.

Dena…I tried to comment on your site but it wouldn’t let me. I really like the colors and the new logo you had done. Nice!

Chris… Hey, you have some really nice competitors, wish mine would Digg my articles. LOL Have you written to the editors? They might let you back in.
It’s the ones who ask for a post to be dug saying they want to get on the front page that Digg is keeping an eye on. Good luck… hope you get back in.

My blog is banned from Digg because my competitors repeatedly submitted my posts. The system is very flawed.

It would be interesting to see how Digg like the Digg campaign at Entrecard: http://entrecard.com/blog/?p=409

Entrecard encourage people to add each others as friends and to Digg as you drop:
“We can all start digging the posts that we enjoy as we drop, and help bring even more traffic to each others blogs”

I don’t see any problem in this, but Digg may….

I think everybody want their site on diggs front page but some people just go about doing it the wrong way.

I personally would like my site on digg front page but at the same time I don’t care about digg.

Hi guys…
Digg’s been changing the rules without posting them… and a lot of banning going on with no explanation… they are accused of burying pages they don’t like too. Some people get back in to the system if they write to the editors, but some don’t even get a reply.

Have a great 4th of July Weekend (for those in the U.S.A.) and I hope everyone who is not in the USA has a great weekend too!

Wow. I will have to be a bit more selective with my digging from now on. I don’t want to get banned. But I think I agree with you about it being discriminatory what they were saying… who’s to say that their visitors dont want to hear about blogging?
