I got banned from digg for doing exchanges on the Digital Point Forums, let that be a lesson to you all! if your even arsed if you get banned, because basically I’m not because you had to get about 2000+ votes to get on page 1! Obviously getting that amount of digg those persons are more than likely using a digg voter ring anyway. Enough about that….
Sphinn is a new network like digg I have been using and what I have seen so far is great. You only need about 20+ votes to get on page one and most of the sphinn users are bloggers, so when you get a vote from sphinn you potentially get a new reader as bloggers are more likely to add your blog to their rss reader in my opinion.
I know what your thinking “I won’t get the same amount of traffic from sphinn as I will from digg”
Well you have to think about the quality of the traffic you will get from sphinn rather than digg as like I said most of the users are bloggers. I think I’ve had more traffic from sphinn than I did get from digg even with getting people to vote me up on digg, because digg is so big even if you get 30 diggs you wont get that much traffic. and hey you can always use both services!
Everyone who blogs is always trying to promote their blog, so I suggest if your not using sphinn to start using it!

Hey, I quit Digg long ago but still just submit some story to get few visitors if possible. I heard about Phinn but haven’t really tried it (only 20 votes?! Cool).

Digg is not a place that you can influence the results, so I think leaving the people of Digg to choose you is better.
I prefer using networks like stumbleupon, dzone and of course Sphinn. It is great if your content is web marketing related.

What kind of blogs can join SPhinn do they have to be techie or internet marketing related

They must be internet marketing related. BTW do not expect huge traffic from Sphinn. This site has low traffic but very targeted. That means that if you go to homepage many top marketers will read your content.
