Digg saturation: Patrick from Blogstorm came up with a way to rank websites using a Digg saturation value that he come up with by searching Google with a specific URI. Apparently Google really likes sites that are Dugg.

That’s a good news, and this is probably a good metric… at least for USA and english-speaking countries.. I doubt that digg effect would be a good metric for european and non english sites/blogs, just because the main part of average users don’t even know digg!
Mark, can you point me to an article about – or the source of – this statement? Apart from the fact that Digg.com has a high Google PR I see no reason that Google would favour sites that are dugg.
If so, the same method to test your site’s saturation could be applied to any high ranking site.

Okay ignore that comment. I should really have read the article you linked to before commenting
Google tells me if couldn’t find anything. Oh well, One of these days I’ll get digged pretty good.
Interesting news. Thanks Mark.
And oh yeah, woohoo! 1 hit!
