About three weeks ago, an older article of mine about setting up a RAID on a Mac got Dugg.
In case anyone's curious, the magnitude of the "Digg Effect" (the extra traffic from being on the front page of Digg) for this blog was about 6,000 visits over a few days. That's substantial, especially given that my baseline traffic is on the order of 100 visits/day. On the other hand, when I was slashdotted a few years ago, the traffic spike was more like 30,000 visitors over a couple days. Interestingly, there seems to be a sustained effect, in that I'm getting substantially more baseline traffic now than I did before being Dugg. I'm not sure if that's from people who decided to come back and visit again, or from the extra Google mojo from the extra linkage. Posted at 08:09 AM | Permalink | | | |
