Hello, my name is BS Buster and I am here to debunk the nonsense from the world of Internet Business. If you are offended by my no nonsense business attitude then please leave this site and NEVER COME BACK. I don’t have time to suger coat my words for any sensitive webmasters, I make a LOT of money online and am a very busy person, so I will be direct and to the point, if you don’t like that then FxxK OFF!

Today I am going to set the record straight on making loads of money from Digg traffic.

A Load Of Bull: Digg Traffic Will Make You RICH

Says who?: I have seen many webmasters complain that they were on the Digg main page and didn’t make much money. From reading forums I have also seen many people think that featuring on the Digg main page is a great way to make a lot of money.

So what?: This is complete BS! Now before you get upset with my claims, I should point out that I believe being on Digg can make you a LOT of money, but that money will not be from Digg readers clicking on your ads.

In December I was featured on Digg, Reddit and Slashdot main pages, my post had over 1200 Diggs and the traffic was incredibly high. Guess how much I made from Adsense from over 150,000 visitors? $46.18

Many newbies focus so much on instant revenue from Adsense etc that they miss the REAL value of being Dugg….. LINKS.

Oh links, lovely links. I love backlinks and so should you! During my Digg experience I received backlinks from hundreds of sites, including many authority sites. I really could not put an exact value on these links, but it is a LOT more than the $46.18 I made from Adsense. If I had to choose between $5,000 in Adsense or hundreds of quality backlinks I would choose the links EVERYTIME.

Anyone focusing on short term Adsense gain is quite simply an idiot! I even had some people claim that my Digg experience was a failure because I didn’t make much money. These people are clearly idiots who will never be successful online. That particular site now ranks much higher for thousands of terms, it has numerous PR5 inner pages, has a top 38,000 Alexa rating and has a loyal readerbase.

Summary: So if you are ever lucky/clever enough to get on the Digg main page then don’t judge your success on Adsense revenue. Being featured on Digg is a great base to make long term profits, but it is not a get rich quick scheme.

    I have trouble getting high on digg in the first place. Anyway, thanks for the info.

    I love reading stories like this… they make complete common sense. It’s obvious that more traffic would equate at least some increase in money. But people don’t realize that it won’t be TONS.

This is a viral video from Youtube that is getting a lot of attention.

I will let the author set the scene:

It was back in Oct 2005.

My wedding was about a month to go and I decided to make a memorable event for my future wife. But, I and she were working and due to preparation of wedding, I didn’t have enough budgets for expensive proposal. While I was considering for the event, I remembered what she said in the past. “Wow it would be great if I can get a chance to go in the room with full of yellow post it just like Sang Sang Plus” (Sang Sang Plus is one of the famous talk show (TV program) in Korea and they prepare a room with full of yellow post it – questions from fans to famous celebrity)

I wrote all the happy memories that I had with my wife in 5,940 post it. It took me 4 days & 5 nights to write everything and post it in the bathroom. (I tried main living room first, but, due to surface of wallpaper, I had to change the place) Once we back from honeymoon, we took all the post it off and kept it in the box until now.
