You wait some more and you see the post only got 3 diggs and is slipping into the abyss. Then it is time you give BloggingZoom a try.

Why is BloggingZoom Better?

Readers don’t stop at the title. If they like the brief description of your article they WILL click through to your site. Most people, including me, go to look at the blog post and read it on the author’s site. This allows my visit to be logged on Mybloglog widget or BlogCatalog widget. It also allows me to comment on the post and interact with the author. Most of the time the author will visit my site via the comment link I left on his/her site.

D-ADD: Digg’s Attention Deficit Disorder

Visits from Digg users last typically under 10 seconds. Its impossible read a 400 word article (the average article size) in that time frame. It’s consistent with what Digg users are accustomed to. They scroll by 10 articles every minute and within 15 minutes they would probably judge 50 or more submissions. That’s all the time they have to decide – to digg or not to digg. BloggingZoom users, on the other hand, visit the blog for 2 to 3 minute on average. This seems to be the sweet spot and shows that the visitor is genuinely interested in the post and read through to the end.

Which Bloggers Zoom?

BloggingZoom is an infant compared to other established ‘Digg’ like sites. It is the most prominent site designed especially for bloggers where blog posts don’t have to compete with CNN articles or PayPerPost reviews. BloggingZoom has great potential and is receiving good reviews from several top bloggers. Check out reviews of BloggingZoom from the ultimate list of reviews compiled by Coutrney Tuttle.

Conclusion

BloggingZoom is created by bloggers for the general use of the blogging community. This is reflected in the sites design and the traffic that I have seen so far. The visitors that come in via zooms are mostly bloggers who interact by leaving comments or trackbacks. This generates targeted traffic from other bloggers and increases the awareness of your site.
