Digg effect hits NetworthIQ (almost)
It’s been a few months since we were in the NY Times, so I guess we were due for another traffic spike. Today, somebody by the name of Mark Millerton wrote an article listing his top 10 Web 2.0 sites and we made the cut!
6. NetWorthIQ - Wanna know how filthy rich you aren’t? NetWorthIQ allows you to enter in your debts, assets, cash, etc. and track your net worth over time. The site is easy to use and you can even compare yourself to other people your age, location, education level, etc. The graphs are pretty and the site really sets itself apart from the Web 2.0 pack.
Thanks Mark! Turns out that this article made the front page of Digg, which if you follow the web much, you’ll know that getting on the front page of Digg is a ticket to a huge surge in traffic. Though the Digg effect for us was indirect, it is still significant (too early to tell how it stacks up to the NY Times traffic, I’ll do a comparision after the smoke settles).
Welcome all newcomers, we’re happy to have you. This should bring my goal of 2000 users by the end of the year within reach.
