      I submitted all my hubs to Digg.  Waiting for results.  I'll keep you posted.

    It just helps your page in getting ranked higher in search engines. Don't expect any traffic from digg on submission of your Hub links. It's a back-link seo technique .

      I figured as much.  Any other tips for back linking or traffic generating?

      For Back-linking you can use your hub links embedded into appropriate words, which can be either a blog or any other discussion. (digg, delicious, Pinterest, etc for back linking)

    I used Digg briefly, and it sent me a bit of traffic, but then I read through the full terms of service again and discovered that by linking to my hubs, I was dedicating them to the public domain where anyone can reuse them for any reason without my permission.

    It used to be when Digg was an indexing site.  But they changed their format about a year ago and are now a news feature site, so if they don't feature your Hubs, I don't think anyone will see them via Digg.  I have pretty much given up on Digg.

    Didn't helped me much. I am using it from 2 months now & it is no where in my traffic sources. Stumbleupon is a better option

      You will only see traffic from Digg if they feature your Hub.  Most submissions are ignored.  I agree, I like Stumbleupon better.

      My only problem with Stumble is that traffic only usually stays on your page for seconds which is bad for panda.
