Digg Unbans SEO News Blog!

I survive from a vicious caugh to awaken to some good news. It seems Digg has decided to unban many domains that were unjoustly banned which includes SEO news blog. SEO news blog was banned on December 14th 2006 now two months and some later I am unbanned.

Pronet to my best knowledge was first to discover that we were unbanned and published a list of the unbanned domains so far. Also I’d like to thank Skitzzo from seorefugee and Muhammad Saleem from pronet for e-mailing me and letting me know.

Now the reason for these unbannings stems from digg updating it’s algorithm and has taken control of what they call “grouping” behavior or where groups of Digg accounts are controlled or effectively controlled by a person or group and can push stories to the home page or get them buried. This was what happened to anything remotely close to having to do with SEO on Digg.

I’d like to thank the guys at digg for taking care of this and also the SEO community for banding together and not staying quiet while this was going on.

Thank You
