MY XIMMY EXPERIENCE
In this blog series, I'll be neat picking on the best things we can do to help the Ximmy community in general.
Digg Your Ximmy Post is part 2 in this series. The first was about Inviting Friends which you can review HERE.
Part 2 focuses on helping promote the Ximmy community using other social review/voting sites.
As most of us already know, Ximmy was patterned after the very popular social review/voting site known as Digg. However, unlike Digg, Ximmy users are rewarded for participating in the community.
It was already discussed in part 1, of this series, that the life blood of all online communities is in its members. The more the members, the more alive the community becomes.
In order to gain more members, Ximmy.com's exposure should be enhanced. One way of enhancing Ximmy's exposure is to submit posts in Ximmy to other social review/voting sites.
Primary focus should be given to the Digg site for the simple reason that it's users will have no difficulty understanding the Ximmy concept. However, all social review/voting sites should be viable prospects for enhancing the Ximmy exposure.
The question that might be looming now in your minds is how. How are we to promote our posts to other social review sites?
The answer to that question is simple and has been right in front of us every time we view the different submissions at Ximmy.com. If you look closely at a page with existing post made by members, you'll see that there are several links just below the description of every submission made, one of which is the Add this link to... button. If you click on this button you'll see several links that will pop out. You can see a screen shot of it below.
In the screen shot above you can see that there are 6 "Add to" links there: del-icio.us; digg; reddit; pligg; myweb2; and, bookmarks. Clicking any one of those will send you to the posting area of the corresponding site.
If you are not a member yet of that posting site, you need to register first to become a member and then continue adding the Ximmy post there.
That's it. It's that simple. Short and sweet. By adding it to the new site, you have enhanced the exposure of Ximmy.com to a greater number of audience.
