Yesterday I got over 1k uniques from Stumble Upon...

exactly the point. Some of the visitors, if they like your site, they will stay and come back again. It's allways a good source of possible returning visitors.

 

Good work, Looks like stumble upon worked well for you. I might give it a try

 

agreed traffic is traffic - I only say what I say because it will throw off adsense CTR and page stats - I am more concerned about stats that is y I find it "ehh" - when I first got to it I was really surprised but further study showed me its "ehh" - again traffic is traffic

 

very interesting tips in there, I think I will try some of those suggestions out this weekend

 

I sent 30$ worth of stumbles through without one stick. I won't be doing that again!

 

Kind of stupid, I suppose, but I never really thought of stumbling posts or subpages like you would on Digg or del.icio.us or something. I'll try that technique sometime.

 

StumbleUpon always works for me, well the idea is to stumble the inner pages also beside the main page and make sure you have interesting content. Video or pictures are great for stumbleupon also, I don't bother about the revenue from social networking since that's not my purpose in submitting my site to SB sites such as Stumble Upon.

 

When launching a new site, SU is a great tool. It's always a challenge building up returning visitors. But the more people you can introduce your site to, the better a chance your site will be successful.

 

I always wondered what type of traffic they drove, 1k isnt to bad

 

no, you're thinking of myspace

isn't there like 1.117 million "will stumble for free" threads in the freebies section? I guess I need to try that sometime!

 

Congratulation that that's a lot of uniques hits

 

Stumble is nice, but there are also other social bookmarking sites you can be taking advantage of as well!

 

I like Reddit. It doesn't drive much traffic unless you've got a really great article or content but with a solid headline (title) you can get an INSTANT 50-150 visitors.

My best for 1 day at Reddit is a little over 200, which still isn't too bad considering I didn't pay for it. The quality wasn't as high as with stumble upon though (higher bounce rates, less time on site).

 

Thanks for the tips. I'm on it already.

 

whats stumble upon. is it like i scratch urs u scratch mine

 

It's more like an erotic massage with scented oil and greasy, long haired girls (in a good way)... you should try it.

 

I have tried stumble in the past. I never found it to convert to money. Maybe I'll try it again. It can't hurt.

cool gotta be alot better then adwords. that sucks $5 a day for 12 visitors .

 

Great work. I recently have had my best day with SU, 3500 uniques.
