If someone Digg’s me, I don’t mind, but StumbleUpon is better quality traffic, and lasting traffic, so I tend to prefer it.

@Vladen I know what you mean. I haven’t had my shared account shut down yet, but I believe I’ve come close. I had a huge StumbleUpon spike awhile back, with my “Don’t Block Firefox” post that really touched a nerve with a lot of people, and was timely enough. And anyway, I’ve seen plenty of shared hosting setups taken down by Digg. :)

Under heavy traffic your website can became unreachable, and as it happened to me a few months ago, your hoster will deactivate your account, because of High CPU utilisation (over 60%). So I prefer organic traffic, which is less demanding…

It tends to draw audiences who are actually interested in your content, rather than just passing by. Also, stumbleupon generates more steady traffic in the long run too. Digg is for instant explosion.just my $0.02.
