The easiest way to think about Spotplex is as a Digg-like site. Instead of the crowds voting on interesting content by clicking a button, with Spotplex, they vote with their eyeballs – that is to say, users vote implicitly by what they choose to read. The key to the Spotplex service lies in its widget. The Spotplex widget collects page data from blogs, and sends these figures back to the Spotplex home base, where hottest articles are aggregated across a number of categories such as Tech, Business, Sports, etc.

So why would a blogger choose to install the Spotplex widget? Simple. Not only will Spotplex widget display which of your posts are drawing the most interest within a set time, Spotplex will also ensure your blog’s posts are put into circulation on the Spotplex destination site, and can earn additional exposure for your blog.

I really like this widget. I understand the value for any blog that uses it. I appreciate the potential future benefit of driving additional traffic to a blog via the Spotplex destination site. This is cool, and I would suggest everyone to try it out.

It is easy and simple, so nobody has to do anything that they were not doing anyway for the service to work.
