I got flagged on stumbleupon?

    I think that stumbleupon is a great way to increase your traffic. Everything went well at the beginning, I received 11k visitors in the first month, all from StumbleUpon. But now the things just don't work. I don't know why. Is it possible to have a flag or something? It's not something visible but the things just don't work now.
    I tried to make another account. Same ... nothing changed, still no traffic. So I think that the flag is on the website not on the account.

    From that 11k visits only 10$ in adsense. I think it works better with a CPM.

    You may have been flagged as a user, or had your site rated adult. If you were flagged as a user, and you created a new account at the same IP address, chances are you're flagged on the new account too. If your site was rated adult you can request a re-rating. Check out their FAQ:

    http://www.stumbleupon.com/faq.html

    I probably missed a few other possibilities but the FAQ is fairly complete.

    SU works great for CPM. Not bad for adsesne too.

    I guess you didn't lose much. SU traffic has been difficult to monetize in my own experience.

    I didn't lose that much but I'm frustrated because I can't understand what the problem is. I have a great profile with many fans and still no traffic.
