StumbleUpon: Improving Your Fan Network and Increasing Traffic

Posted by reviews on Nov 15, 2007

StumbleUpon is a wonderful thing. You can find all sorts of sites, pages, photos, videos, and games that would otherwise go unnoticed or not found when using your typical search engines. Use the Search in StumbleUpon and you can find gems of sites that you would very likely not find, as they could be buried deep into the pages of Google or Yahoo!.

Another benefit of StumbleUpon is the amount of traffic that can find your pages and sites. If you have something that you would like shared, you can add it to StumbleUpon when you or another stumbler discovers it and reviews it. From that point on that page, image, or video is on the StumbleUpon network.

This leads us to the next point.

Ways to improve your network of Fans:

  1. Create a StumbleUpon blog and have thoughtful, entertaining, funny, or simply fun content.
  2. Use the StumbleUpon PhotoBlog It! option to blog about a great photo that you have found. Do this by Right-clicking on the photo and choose StumbleUpon PhotoBlog It! Then comment on the photo you have found.
  3. Join various groups, such as Stumblers, StumbleUpon, or StumbleUpon Tweaks and Tricks (to improve your StumbleUpon layout and add features!)
  4. Read the StumbleUpon tweaks on The Prawn website.
  5. Also, you can improve you chances of meeting other like minded people by adding various interests to your profile. There are tons of interests to choose!

    So if I add a page, you say I’ll actually get traffic from it?

    Yes, you would definitely get traffic. As long as your page is stumbled and reviewed by people with many fans. The important thing is to NOT have poorly designed, uninteresting pages that are stumbled.

    StumbleUpon is good for a sudden burst of traffic. However the traffic from stumbleupon do not last at all. I see tons of ppl selling StumbleUpon Proxy Traffic services but these traffic goes to a sudden bang and within a few days they just die down almost completely. As much as these sites are good for traffic, don’t take them for good long term traffic.
