Digg shortened urls

[brett]

Hi there

I've just started to use some social bookmarking (I'm new to this whole game), and so I have done a couple of "Diggs" to my website. One to the main page and one to a page within the site.

I just noticed a couple of things.

1) When I look at those entries in Digg they have shortened URLs back to my site. Is this a problem in terms of "link juice" or does that flow right through to my page.

2) Not only is there a shortened URL, but when you click on it my webpage seems to open in a frame - the shortened url is showing in the address bar and there is a Digg toolbar showing

3) As an experiment I went to add the site again, and it said it was "digging for submissions" and returned a couple of sites (not mine), but didn't tell me the site had already been submitted.

I'm just wondering whether I've done something wrong because the above seems a little odd to me.

Any help you can give a complete newbie to social bookmarking would be much appreciated!

Thanks
Brett

Hi Brett,

Digg is still one of the best places to get a quick ranking. Have you got an example link?

Post in here and I'll check it out.

Cheers

Hi Tim

Thanks for responding. I went to find the link and can actually see what's happening now...

When I'm logged in to the account I get a different experience to when I'm logged out. When I'm logged out there are no shortened urls and no frames. When I'm logged in things look a bit different.

So it all looks as I expected it would.

Thanks for your help
Brett
