Did Digg Change The Way Our Digg Links Work?

jasondinner · 01-25-2010, 09:08 AM

Up until this morning, when I would submit a link to Digg, I would get a Digg URL
which redirects to the actual url I submitted.

Now, those same links go to Digg's page where the story is listed and not
the actual page that was Dugg.

Is anyone else noticing this?

Thanks,
Jason

They have made changes, maybe this will help:

Yep I noticed this too Jason. I *think* it'll still be counted as a backlink? Anyway Digg's still one of the best (if not the best) social bookmarking site. I just bookmarked one of my pages and it shot straight to page one for the chosen keywords in 10 minutes. And my niche site is on page 2.

Thanks for the link, but it didn't say anything useful other than that big changes were coming.

I appreciate you for finding it though

I just dropped a couple of links at Digg and it seems to be working the same way it was last week. It takes me first to a summary page and after I click the link, it gives me the Digg page image for it.
