Yahoo Buzz vs. Digg

    Which one have you had more success with? I've used both, and I find Yahoo to be a little easier to get in with, probably because the site is newer. However, it seems that a successful Digg article can still drive more traffic. Thoughts?

    Digg is still better because of the traffic, even though I digged my site a couple month ago I still get traffic from it

    Either way if you have a huge server then go ahead and get on the front page because it will help you but many with the normal amount of hosting will get a large amount of terribly converting traffic that will use up every bit of your bandwidth.

    Digg gets far more traffic than Buzz... and Buzz is still in early stages. So, I vote for Digg.

    I haven't used Yahoo Buzz much, but Digg seems cool to me.

    Digg at this stage, and as for getting on the first page.....i have found it impossible , you will need at least 20 made up accounts

    I already tested Digg... even though im using Yahoo! Buzz, for me, Digg dominate over Yahoo! Buzz. But I think Yahoo! Buzz can still prove. (Anyway, its just newly launch by Yahoo)

    I personally prefer digg and have had great results with it, but it would be interesting to do a split test of the same site with the 2.

    I think you get more authority from being on the Yahoo! homepage, but you have better chances of making it to Digg's.

    I am partial to digg myself. Probably because I have been using the site for so long though.
