Q8igg- Digg Like Site for Kuwait
Q8igg, pronounced Kuwaitig, is a new Digg like site for Kuwait. The site, still in Beta, allows you to post news, articles, and your favorite links. The name of the site comes as you might guess from the word Kuwait + igg, which is the common trailing trend for Digg like sites these days. Why is it different than Digg? Well we noticed that if you submit Kuwait related content to Digg, there is a very small chance it will get any attention. However with this site, it’s mostly about Kuwait, and Kuwaiti community votes for the good news to bubble up.
The way it works is very simple. You just need to go through the quick registration process, and submit the link you want. Once you do so, it will appear on the Up Coming news. If enough people vote for the news (Q8igg it), it will come up in the Published News area. If you like the site, make sure you checkout the Tools section to see how you can incorporate voting widgets on your site or blog. You can easily add them to your blog post so that people submit your content to Q8igg.
That’s only half the good news though. By registering and submitting news to Q8igg, you get the chance to display your own ads on the news page that you submit. All you need is your own Google Adsense account. Provide your account number in the profile page and you’re good to go. All Google Ads revenue on the news page is yours. Why would we do that? Well, we like the concept of sharing revenue with the site content generators, who are you at the end. We gave it a thorough thought as we didn’t want money to overcome quality. We hope though that by giving you this opportunity it will encourage more and more quality posts to come. I am not %100 sure, but I think we are here the first site here in Kuwait that offers revenue sharing with it’s community.
Please note that we are still in Beta. So please bare with us, and help us improve by submitting your favorite stories, giving us your comments and feedback, and spreading the word about it. And remember, a community site is only as good as it’s members.
Happy posting.
