Gasp! Someone's getting paid to promote stories on Digg and if they
land on the Digg home page, that person gets paid more, reports
WebProNews.
Invesp even paid this person for an interview, saying:
… whether you agree with this user or not, what he describes are
common practices. Love them or hate them, they do exist. I think the
Digg system and its lack of transparency will always foster such
behavior.
Now that's even easier money than the Digg gig. Of course the site
frowns on such things, but considering that marketing folks are
looking for any angle, is anyone surprised?
