CONTEXT: There’s a lot of SEO heads lurking around sites like Digg and Reddit. While I must admit that I am more of a Reddit user, people from Digg message me from time to time. Here’s a conversation I just had with “Ashley Lombardi, a 20 year-old female from the United States who joined Digg on July 21st, 2009″
(10:46:31 AM) ashleyl845669: heyy : )
(10:46:58 AM) pixelatedjamie: :[
(10:47:18 AM) ashleyl845669: Watsup, I am kind of new to digg and I came across your profile, and you looked cool so I added you heh : )
(10:47:22 AM) ashleyl845669: whats with the sadface
(10:47:43 AM) pixelatedjamie: what's your digg profile?
(10:47:58 AM) ashleyl845669: http://digg.com/users/AshleyL108 add me : )
(10:48:17 AM) pixelatedjamie: lol
(10:48:19 AM) pixelatedjamie: what site do you work for?
(10:49:17 AM) ashleyl845669: Um abercrombie
(10:49:21 AM) ashleyl845669: but not the site the store?
(10:49:42 AM) pixelatedjamie: so you saw my profile and you thought i was cool?
(10:49:49 AM) pixelatedjamie: what was cool about my digg profile?
(10:49:55 AM) pixelatedjamie: and do you even remember what my digg profile is?
(10:51:49 AM) pixelatedjamie: figured you wouldn't have a quick answer.
(10:51:53 AM) pixelatedjamie: here is a tip, seo man:
(10:52:03 AM) pixelatedjamie: the cute girl in a profile picture thing doesn't work so well anymore - especially when you add almost 250 people in six days
(10:52:40 AM) pixelatedjamie: it's disgustingly blatant
(10:52:46 AM) pixelatedjamie: good effort, though, um, ashley.
(10:53:20 AM) ashleyl845669: Huh,heyy : )
(10:53:45 AM) pixelatedjamie: another thing, seo guy
(10:53:55 AM) pixelatedjamie: guys are more fascinated with females who actually have brains
(10:54:01 AM) pixelatedjamie: not camwhores who "work at abercrombie"
(10:54:07 AM) pixelatedjamie: you might want to take another angle
(10:54:20 AM) ashleyl845669: haha Why are yyou saying all these mean things to me...
(10:54:53 AM) pixelatedjamie: what's my profile name, ashley?
(10:54:56 AM) pixelatedjamie: and what makes me so "cool"?
(10:55:24 AM) pixelatedjamie: do you only operate on weekdays from 9am - 6pm?
(10:55:41 AM) pixelatedjamie: shouldn't you be selling jeans or something?
(10:57:02 AM) pixelatedjamie: not sure what to say?
(10:57:03 AM) pixelatedjamie: lol
(10:58:19 AM) pixelatedjamie: OH
(10:58:20 AM) pixelatedjamie: another thing
(10:58:25 AM) pixelatedjamie: it's insulting to other female users on digg
(10:58:37 AM) pixelatedjamie: that you would think that a girl like your "ashley" character would exist on a social media site
(10:58:51 AM) pixelatedjamie: women on digg would not say this:
(10:58:59 AM) pixelatedjamie: "I love twilight! Whose your favorite character! mine is edwardddd"
(10:59:08 AM) pixelatedjamie: women on digg are too intelligent for that.
(10:59:16 AM) pixelatedjamie: seo guy, you didn't really think this through.
(10:59:28 AM) pixelatedjamie: "ewww spiders creep me outt"
(10:59:30 AM) pixelatedjamie: insulting.
(10:59:36 AM) pixelatedjamie: "The first one was so amazing, the second one was eh, Meagan Fox keeps getting prettier I am so jealous... but the story is sucking more and more..."
(10:59:37 AM) pixelatedjamie: disgusting.
(10:59:50 AM) pixelatedjamie: do you notice how all of your comments are buried?
(10:59:59 AM) pixelatedjamie: it's because people can see through your fabricated character
(11:00:01 AM) pixelatedjamie: you need another angle.
(11:01:07 AM) pixelatedjamie: i'm giving you golden advice, man
(11:01:14 AM) pixelatedjamie: this ashley lombardi character is not going to work
(11:02:02 AM) pixelatedjamie: those chicks don't use digg; they're busy sucking off the guys they randomly met at bars
(11:02:23 AM) pixelatedjamie: and the fact that you would actually insert that type of character into a community like digg is downright insulting
(11:11:33 AM) pixelatedjamie: nothing to say?
(11:11:53 AM) pixelatedjamie: that's a shame, i thought your profile was pretty cool ;]
and the winner is……..?
