I guess I just don't get the point of voting up stories if people aren't actually reading them. In looking at some of the stuff I have submitted (yes I will submit some of my own content, I know.. I know) I might have 20+ votes and only a handful of views. However, with that being said, I enjoy spending time on there. I am finding that I am submitting more to their than I have any other social media site except for stumbleupon... -Kevin Hey Jay,

"REALITY CHECK" There are marketers and SEO enthusiasts who would dis-agree, and that's fine. To each his own. Mixx for me is not about "Hey let's see how many people I can get to read my blog" If your content is good on your blog, then, people will read it. Mixx is about content sharing. Spammers will quickly be shown the door and have thier keys taken away. The community is awesome. The layout is 100% better then Digg. (If you watch you will see where Digg is taking ideas from Mixx and integrating them into Digg) Now here is the other side of the coin. Mixx, while still in it's infancy has better growth numbers then Digg did at the time of it's launch. So, that being said, if Mixx continues on it's current growth path, has the extreme potential to be a big Social Media player. Mixx is a site to keep an eye on, that's for sure. Hey guys,

The only part of what you said that I would take issue with is that regarding traffic. While admittedly, I don't submit my own content that often; I have been seeing substantial increases in the actual votes-visits ratio over the past few months. While Mixx is in no rush to attract spammers, the site does hold the potential to deliver traffic if the topic is of high-interest to the community. Nice post!

While testing I found out that it's such a good site that I just stayed and used it manifold other ways. Now I already have a really active group on Mixx: SEO 2.0 which I read first, even before Sphinn. Mixx is just too good to fail while Digg will be sold to the highest corporate bidder and maybe become even worse. Mixx is not for traffic yet, at least not for massive front page traffic.
