    I am just starting to learn about social bookmarking. I have just joined DIGG and summited a couple of articles. My questin is should I have a link on my site for DIGG. I see this on other sites. What is the purpose of the link ? Don't I want people to link back to my site from Digg. Not from my site to digg. Confused please help.

    Having a digg this button on your posts / pages makes it easy for users to digg the post / page. The more diggs that you have for a given page, the higher that it ranks on digg and subsequently, the more that the link on digg helps your website.

    How do you get the digg button ? Should it go on your main page as well as posts ?
    Also do I need a plugin for various bookmarking buttons ?

    Digg button on your site helps the user to digg your post. The higher the number of diggs your post gets, the higher it can show up in the highly traffiked site Digg. So it is conducive to have the button and theres the reason for it to appear on your wordpress pages.

    Bookmarks show how a site is perceived, and when these sites allow voting, they also show the engines or whatever classification system which monitors voting, how people feel about the quality of the site.

    Is digg filtering for content? I.e. if they don't like the page, to many submissions or whatever they perceive as spam.
