    Do you have dynamic page titles? Did you do deep link building?

    Maybe if you posted your url it'll be easier to suggest you what to do. You should probably concentrate more on good quality content than just take your time to build links. If you have good content people will keep coming.

    Apart from submitting to directories and waiting for high result you could use other ways to get traffic, bookmarking for example.

    Try to social bookmarks your non indexed page, a stumble will also help.

    Hope this help :)

    I think SU traffic is not too targeted, but it's also depends on your content. In my experience, SU is good for luring the spiders come to your site. After you stumble your site, ping your SU blog with Kping.com, I usually use this in my new site, and it usually works.

    Depends on your definition of "targeted".

    SU users are mostly looking for entertainment.
    They "stumble" from one website to another.

    If your content is interesting to them, they will return.
    But if your website is boring (for them), they will just leave and never return.

    So.... Do you think SU users will be interested in a b2b website?
    Personally I don't think so.

    Some people submit their business/make money online website to SU, get some traffic, and because the visitors don't convert they say SU traffic is not targeted.

    Interesting content + some stumbles = traffic explosion


    Conclusion: IMO, StumbleUpon is not the right method to promote your website, due to the nature of SU users and your website (they are not the right combination). You might be better off with AdWords.

    While SU may not be the perfect medium for building targeted traffic, my experience is that every little bit helps.
