    Default How to gain traffic through stumble upon?

    A lot of people says in different forums I have visited that they gain traffic through stumble upon . I do have stumble upon but I rarely use them I once when I need to stumble something but I would like to asked if what you should do to gain traffic from it. Do we need to gain loads of friends to gain traffic from it?

    I've never had much luck with any social bookmarking sites.
    Gaining friends would be the obvious answer, but it wouldn't take StumbleUpon long to realise that your mates were doing all your Stumbles.
    Stick to SE traffic methinks.

    Two good points right there. I've had one article I wrote stumbled naturally and it brought lots of traffic but not much revenue because social bookmarking isn't really high converting.

    I, too, prefer to stick to the better converting and more relevant SE traffic.

    @Vectro is right. Still to building your traffic from SE and less from social networking sites. Over 94% of those prepared to buy anything will come from search engines, while the rest are just curiously following links across sites.

    I don't waste my time chasing those traffic instead I focus on optimizing and getting my site on the first page on the big 'G's SERP.

    In stumbleupon you have to add more friends but if you have an article or blogs stumble it and share to your friends to be reviewed and stumbled. If you have thousand of friends you'll get immediately a thousand traffic in a minute but the disadvantage is if you will get banned. I don't like SU now because there are so many spammers.

    How about email blasting? Does it pays off? Like sending emails to thousand(probably 50k) of people? what is the clikthrough rate? will it ever increasy your traffic?

    I really like this discussion because I have also heard many times about social media but this has not much conversion rate but even then people emphasize on using these medias to increase traffic. instead of this if u go for online discount coupons site for shopping items then you ll get more serious traffic.

    Actually I didnt know that we need to add more friends in stumble upon ..I have loads of friends before but it seems like it has been banned for I dont know the reason probably I have stumbled some site which is prohibited by stumble upon...I really dont have a lot of friends there so I guess that is the reason why I got no traffic

    E-mail blasts also have a low conversion rate from my experience. I still have a small e-mail list of people who want fresh proxies, but I don't think it will really pay off until it grows to thousands of users.

    I also agree with this. It is better if you apply data mining/analysis technique to attract the targeted traffic in social bookmarking sights. If so many people readily see your link but does not really looking for anything related to it but have clicked on it anyway will be considered a bad traffic. In search engines, they type in keywords because that is what they really are looking for so if they stumbled on your blog from that search, there is a big possiblity that they will stay longer, read more, book mark your page and will keep on coming back

    I'm getting a good traffic in stumbleupon if you interact to the community by keep on reviewing some website and share it to your friends.. Keep on adding friends and not share your links at all. Maybe 3 times to 5 times a day is good enough!

    I have the same experience with you. I use the stumble and digg. but only digg that provides traffic although not much. But it's still interesting, do not understand how other people get that much traffic from these social bookmarking. maybe someone will share tips for success using stumble?

    Its a social network site, so activities in there are usually based on interactions with other users. your submission won't be successful if you don't have friends over the network.

    If you build your network of friends you can get a short term traffic spike but thats about it. Plus, there is always the danger of getting banned if they look at your mutual stumbling etc. There is plenty of other ways to generate decent traffic.

    You will not get a good traffic in stumbleupon if you don't interact and add friends. Just handle it naturally like twitter, the more followers you have the more chances to be visited your links.

    hello,
    i never got much traffic through stumble upon, yes some clicks here and there after spending lot of time on it. But yes, with twitter and blog catalog there is complete different story.
    I saw one reply asking about email blasting, but it also waste of time, no one will click your link other than your friends..hahaha...

    I'm really getting traffic with it. As long as you participate and share your story in all your friends. So having a lot of friends is a must.
