Digg & Stumble for Money
There are a few ways that you can make money by digging and stumbling articles. I see this go on a lot over at Digital Point forums. First you can sell your services in the Buy, Sell, or Trade category over at Digital Point. There are a few threads that you might have seen if you've been there such as "100 Social Bookmarks for $5." Most of these threads get hundreds of responses which means that at least a few people are making hundreds of dollars digging & stumbling articles.
Since your services might get lost in the shuffle the easiest way to stand out is to get creative. Instead of offering "50 diggs for $3" how about "Get on the front page of Digg for $20!" Obviously you can't make that claim unless you can deliver - but if you can deliver, you can make a lot of money. Some people have gotten 40,000 hits from the front page of digg. You can't buy that kind of traffic. Or can you?
Another way you can make money is selling Diggboss points. Diggboss gives you 1 point for every digg and stumble you make, and it costs two points to get a digg or stumble in return. You can also sell these on Digitalpoint, or through the Diggboss chat and forums. I know those of you who stumbled across this post are probably shaking your head at me, but just because I write about a site doesn't mean I endorse it. Also keep in mind that you don't have to digg or stumble any articles you don't want to - they actually encourage you to only digg the ones you like.
Last but not least you can use different revenue-sharing social bookmarking sites to do your personal bookmarking. There are sites that offer a share of adsense profits on your bookmark pages. I reviewed the two most popular ones on my post "Social Bookmarking Sites with Revenue Share."

Digital Point has been my chief source of income (from the internet, that is) since I came across it. Great post, Crystal.
yes, digg and stumble is not all about business, but then at Dp you can make money out of anything!
