Digg effect - Effect of ranking on digg homepage

Written by Search Engine Genie @ 11:10 AM permanent link on Thursday, June 05, 2008 | Post a Comment |

Digg killed my friends server. Few day's back one of my friend's article featured of Digg homepage. Within few minutes his server can't withstand the massive traffic and was down for 5 hours. Is Digg homepage ranking worth anyone else had that experience?

Please share it here

Actually, when the article first went popular it did take down the server for about 10 minutes. However I happened to be working at the time and when I noticed it I put up a static version of the page and then it ran like a champ.

I need to go through and trim down my site to get rid of some of the bloat. I’m sure the server could handle it if I just optimized a little bit.
