How-To Sk-rt! Digg-ing Just for Women

Update: [Day 2] Their my #2 referrer (home page)! I also, got the highest RSS subscribers in the last 2 days too
[Day 1] Nearly 12-hours after this post went live, all 3 links: Sk-rt.com’s Up & Coming, comment link and Front Page are all listed in my Top 25 referrers to this site! And, they by-passed some mighty-well-established, long-standing, referrers too! And, because my target market are ‘women entrepreneurs’ I’ve seen a *very nice* increase in ezine and RSS subscribers, and page views! So…these sk-rt chicks are sticking around for the long-haul baby! Not, like any other social networking/bookmarking site I’ve seen to date! “Impressed” is a HUGE understatement!
Sk-rt.com – From Start-Up to Success!
First of all…what is it!?
Plain and simple, sk*rt is the female version of Digg. sk*rt is the place to find and/or link to anything and everything on the Web that you’d like to share with other women. If sk*rt users like what you submit, they’ll vote for it. The more votes, the more likely your link will make it to the front page. Links on the front page are seen by everybody and get lots of love. The front page content is ever-changing and always cool.
Of course, no one person can keep track of every cool thing out there. So sk*rt users bring the content. Vote for the content. Determine what’s good and what’s bad. sk*rt works to make sure you don’t miss any of the good stuff.
And, well…I’m hooked!
I’ve been there over 2-hours now, building my network, voting, commenting, and making suggestions to the developers (hey, man woman…they just launched and I LOVE it that much, that I totally want them to rock this web and be the first social media/networking/bookmarking site for every online woman!).
Rather then tell you all the reasons I love it! First, I’m going to tell you the *best*, easiest, fastest and most profitable way to get started, and add my commentary throughout!
So, let’s get to Net-work Missy!
1. Get Started With Sk-rt.com here.
Better yet, watch their YouTube video with a quick 5.5-minute tour, where and how-to register, submit a webpage, and start voting with the “Love It!” button.
[I can't embed the YouTube script without totally messing up my layout, so hop over at the Get Started Page and scroll down to the bottom for the video, Okay!?]
2. Build Your Profile Page…Yes, “Add me, PonnSabra, as your friend” while you’re there. It is SO quick and easy, there’s not many fields at all! It literally took be 2-minutes, only because I can’t seem to type any faster than 55 words per minute
Urghhh
3. Start voting, commenting, etc. With the Chance to Win Cool Prizes at the same time!
Yes, I love contests, so don’t make my mistake, I was browsing, voting, etc. and then, found the FREE Giveaways! Do this first!
Start voting on the Up & Coming Posts, then the Popular ones.
You’re helping new members get their new webpage submissions seen via Up & Coming (new posts), then giving credit to the Popular ones (ones with the most “Love It’s” and most attention), while entering your chance to win some cool free gifts! Its a win-win-win scenario going on! Very ingenious, eh?
4. Add Sk-rt to Your Site. And Email them so You Can Win Big!
5. What’s the Scoop on Sk-rt.com?
- Here’s Frequently Asked Questions.
- The 4 chicks you took an idea sparked by the Super Bowl 2007, to blossom to what they are today!
- Day 2 of their Launch, Digg brought their servers down! [By the way, look at the count of digg on June 6th "413", today its still increasing, I dugg it at 494"]
- They were growing SO fast that on Day 3 of their launch, they already needed to update to a high-capacity server!
- As if you haven’t figured it out already, many of these links directed you to Sk-rt.com Blog. While not updated often, I’m glad to report the Founding Chicks are *Active* Members of their own community!
5. Become Active, Help Promote and Share Helpful Advice.
- I just submitted my first webpage. [Plezzz "Love It" Up too...
One more will bring this to the Front Page too?!]- [We're on the Front Page now! Thanks Much my dear! Sat. the 16th (So, obviously submissions and loving-it up doesn't have to be within 24-hours or a limited timeframe...hmm, totally rockin'

[Yes, a selfless little plug. I just found out my June column was recently published at WomenEntrepreneur.com, and its mighty timely: Top 10 Online Networking Ideas...Please "Love It" Up...]
- Anyways, as the YouTube video, submitting a webpage is timely, and I couldn’t install my bookmarklet…this is definitely an area to improve. For user-ease and convenience.
- I haven’t figured the Top User category. From what I can tell, this is not the “Top User” list, its the database in numeric-alphabetical order of all their users…maybe this category needs to be better defined or renamed.
- In the past week, I had 3 online woman business owners, asking if I’ve heard of Sk-rt.com. While my Profile will show I registered back in June, I didn’t do anything about it.
I knew it was a woman’s community…and everyone knows “Power Networker Ponn” has been all around with Our Social Media/Bookmarking/Networking Challenge….of course, I also cater to women…so “What’s my thoughts/opinions?” They all asked!
Here’s my answer: Sk-rt.com Rocks! The Founding Chicks are SO way up my alley! They are truly Empowered Women Entrepreneurs who know how to Act when the time was right and the need was calling!
I *will* be *very* active with Sk-rt.com…probably 2nd to my beloved StumbleUpon, only because of the convenience of the StumbleUpon ToolBar!
- Given that I network primarily online for business, and online business colleagues contacted me…I’d really love Sk-rt.com to consider a “business” or “internet” category aside from “World Wise” which combines news, ideas, and internet.
