Something I have learned from talking to folks from other websites is this: if you get coordination from your readers, getting them to vote for your materials at the linkfarms such as reddit, digg, and SU, you increase your site's traffic numbers by incredible numbers.

It is not that hard to do. SuperG added a "ShareThis" button at the bottom of each one of our posts, if one has an account on these services, all one has to do is go in there and click the particular service (you may also have to login if you have not already). If the post has not been submitted yet, it will submit it--if the post has already been submitted, it will give you the chance to vote it up. Simple.

So, folks, please help us out, click the above links or the "share this" button and vote up our work each time you can. It helps us get more eyes, which means more ad revenue to support the site.

All we need is about 65 people to digg this story, and that will result in about 4500 new sets of eyes to the site. Make it happen.

Update: 17 DIGGS AS OF 5p EDT. Come on folks, try to get it to 25 so it at least gets seen. 65-ish will get it on the front page. We have 24 hours to get it on to the front page from the time of submission.

Yes, it works cowpoke. I would think that with 25000 visitors a day we could get 65 folks to click a button--somewhat habitually. Perhaps not.
