You have to give back more than you expect to get. How can any blogger expect others to post their links for them if they are unwilling to post others? The Google slapdown is coming and it usually comes just before Christmas. Google changes the algorithm to slapdown what everybody has been doing to spam the Google index. Sites that have been doing nothing but submitting their own content to get traffic on social bookmarking sites are going down the drain hard. If you change you ways now you may have a chance to avoid it. Keep submitting your own content to Digg and shouting your own links to get Diggs is going to really hurt you very soon. Don't believe me, read this, I wrote this case study 3 months ago, but no one listened. http://www.keywebdata.com/?p=79 Right after I published this article Digg deleted all my posts and accused KeyWebData of spam. Thanks Digg! Social marketing is about being social, so go be social. You have just described everything I have been talking about for months Nick. You have to give back more than you expect to get.
