Stumble to Traffic Heaven
Stumble Upon is probably the most popular social networking tool these days. If not, it certainly accounts for a good amount of traffic for bloggers in all niches. It would be easy to get blinded and start stumbling like mad in the hopes of getting a slice of this. But using Stumble Upon does require some finesse and personal engagement in order to work.
See, you won’t become a power stumbler if you keep stumbling your own posts. Far from it actually, the stumble community hates those who keep giving themselves the thumbs up but fail to take some time out to vote for others (stumble).
There is no secret in becoming a top stumbler, it is a simple as to become a frequent daily user and involving yourself into the community. It is as easy as signing up for a free account, then installing the Stumble Upon toolbar. Once you got this, you are set to stumble to your hearts content.
While browsing the Internet you can click on the thumbs up if you like a site very well, or else you click on the thumbs down. Personally I never use the thumbs down feature, if I don’t like what I see, I simply stumble on. Via your Stumble Upon admin (which sits in your toolbar) you can navigate to your own page. This will give you an easy overview as to how many stumbles you have done so far, how many friends you have, how many reviews, etc.
Once you have some fans, you can choose to add them to your friends list which will allow you to send your favourite posts to your friends to stumble for you and vice versa. Just be careful, as I think the maximum amount of friends you can have in your Stumble Upon profile is 200. It pays to be choosy here.
Stumble Upon is a fantastic social networking site that will bring you lost of daily traffic if used properly. By joining various stumble interest groups you will also get wider exposure. If you use Stumble Upon with a daily dose of excitement, you will see results.
Happy stumbling
