How to Delete A Digg Account
Digg is one of the older social media websites out there. Before Facebook and Twitter was even a blip on the social media map, Digg was the go-to website. Users would Digg a link and if the link was popular, others would Digg it as well. The best Diggs were featured on the front page of the website where massive amounts of traffic was pushed to the link. Digg is still up and running today, but the site looks and works quite a bit differently than it did in the beginning. Despite the downturn in popularity, Digg is still a place where people share links to increase traffic.
