Does Digg Really Offer Any True SEO Value?
Does Digg offer any true SEO Value? If you submit material into Digg the back link on Digg.com is a DOFOLLOW blog, so technically you get search engine friendly link. However, how much value really is placed on that link? I had someone tell me that Digg is a huge part of an SEO strategy, and quite honestly I just don’t buy it. I am sure there is some SEO value, but I don’t think there is much. What are your thoughts?

If you post something in your blog and have good title for SEO, the same title in Digg can give better rankings for that Digg page in Google than to your blog. This happened to my friends a lot of times, and so i suggest them to have a different and attractive title in Digg story rather than the same one.
Btw as people say, a backlink is backlink. If you are not talking about the quality, as Digg is an indirect link-farm.

Kinda like if John Chow or Shoemoney posted a link to a post I wrote and used the same title, they would rank higher than me, but someone would be more likely to click a link to their site than mine simply because of name recognition but then those same people would still end up on my site because that is where they were directed from the page that Google took them to. However, if all that came up on google was the link to my page they might click on something completely different or try a new search all together.
