    About 18 hours ago, one of my site made it to Digg's frontpage. 185K visitors since then. holy shit! I have appeared on Digg's frontpage on two previous occasion, but this one is the biggest.

    The graph above is not fully updated

    Total revenue from digg traffic = $130

    The best part is - I didn't submit it to digg. :)

    Something really silly - an image website. Never thought it would become so popular. social news sites like digg, stumbleupon etc are unpredictable.

    wow someone else must have submitted it to digg

    did you write an article or something? I would like to create something like that. With 185,000 visitors I would make a killing since I am making one sale per 250 visitors on average

    Digg is very nice.

    Even though one of my articles is not front page. Hundreds of unique visitors still come in as the Digg article is on the first page of google search.

    Congrats to you on front page!

    You won't get good conversion from digg traffic. Most of my revenue is from CPM ads.

    Whatever the conversion - it must feel GREAT to see this happen. Now, you should consider how to (a) replicate the event and (b) monetize it

    Be careful. If many people submit your website it might get banned from digg.

    Having success with Digg is something I've wanted for a long time on some of my sites but never really achieved. Well done!
