There’s a new kid in town … Mixx.com, a Digg-like site that has all of the features of Digg but less of the headache. If you’ve been an active Digger, chances are you’ve gotten at least one Digg account banned. The admins of Digg are quite trigger happy when it comes to the ban button. It is against their terms of service to even submit a page that has affiliate links on it and they use this rule selectively to ban people who are submitting their own affiliate sites rather than the original article or video. By selectively, I mean .. well, it just depends on who you are, I guess. Try to find one article that makes the front page that isn’t hawking something and you will be hard pressed to find one. For instance, the new top story right now is hawking Ambien CR and is on the front page with only 37 Diggs … but I’m on my 3rd Digg account for submitting interesting articles from my blogs … go figure.

Mixx.com does not have a rule against sites with affiliate links … it does have rules against the usual … hate, porn, etc. The crowd over there is quite friendly. Being new, they are eager to vote on your newly submitted sites, without any enticement and eager to “friend” you as well. Check it out. May grow up to be a real traffic source. Add to any service
