Submitting a favorite video to Digg.com is a great way to dramatically increase that video's exposure. If you are sure you've found a real treasure, then posting it on Digg.com will make it easily accessible for viewing by the entire Digg.com community.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Program for viewing videos on your computer, like RealPlayer or QuickTime
  • Internet access
  • Computer

Step1
Peruse the wide selection of videos available for viewing on the Internet, or create your own.
Step2
Decide what video or videos you would like to submit to Digg.com.
Step3
Go to Digg.com and log in to your account (see the Resources section below).
Step4
Click on 'Videos.'
Step5
Click on 'Submit a New Video.'
Step6
Read the submission guidelines to make sure you are doing everything correctly. Digg.com gives you the opportunity to read these guidelines before you submit your video.
Step7
Enter the URL for the video into the provided field.
Step8
Click 'Continue.'
Step9
Write a quick title and description for your video. Make the title catchy and the description short but informative. You want Digg.com users to want to view your video, so tell them why they should. You only get 75 characters for your title and 350 characters for your description, so don't try to write 'War and Peace.'
Step10
Choose a category for your video. Digg.com will provide you with a nice selection of categories and you can click the circle beside the one where you want your video to live. Make sure your video really does fit the category you select, or another user might tag your video as spam.
Step11
Click 'Submit Story' and you have just submitted a video to Digg.com. Congratulations!
