If you have a Digg button or link on your site, which one do you use and why?

I have had an on, off, on currently off relationship but am considering going back on again regards my own site.

A link to your site so I can take a look would be appreciated.

Cheers

I put a digg button on blog posts which I think are good so they might get dugg. But I don't have a generic one. If it's good enough, they'll submit me :)

I don't use digg, thank you very much.

Only if referrer is digg itself. All the other visitors don't get to see it.

I don't use the official Digg button. I just use the Share This plugin for my blog for the social bookmarking aspect.

I've found that DIgg can drive a good burst of traffic but it's generally not good quality traffic with regards to ad revenue or constructive blog comments so I don't bother with the buttons.

From a marketing perspective you're better off aggressively going after the Digg traffic from multiple directions when it makes sense because the associated offer is so sharp that your bound to see a good amount of sales/clicks.

We dropped the Digg into the Note heading but it's not really the optimal spot to put it, and it's going in a new place in the next version of 9rules coming in 2010.

Thanks all - that pretty much sums up my experience. When I posted mostly reviews I didn't bother with DIGG, but when I moved to more personal stuff I thought I should re-consider.

I hate people that 'chase' DIGGS but feel that it is a beast best embraced - not because I think a successful DIGG will result in increased traffic, but as part of an overall 'strategy' to develop traffic to the next level I think I need to be more involved.

I use the awesome large Digg button that Guy Kawasaki uses. It looks the sexiest
