    You’ll get traffic, but chances are not much revenue. Stumblers are people bored looking for entertainment. If they have no reason to click they won't. If you have good content and just want to get the word out that you exist, I would try it... But you can do it free...Just sign up and stumble your site :D

    I have tried Stumble Ads but am really not sold on them. You do get a bunch of traffic from them but once your money runs out and it can quite quickly your traffic spike will stop.

    I would actually put the money into a targeted Google Adwords campaign. The money would be better spent that way in my opinion.

    Yup been using them for years. A lot of stumblers are kids or cheap adults though so do not look for much revenue. Plus Stumble hardly ever approves business sites so make sure your site actually offers something entertaining to the stumblers or it would be rejected. Recently I stopped using Stumble since $100 gets used up in an hour from people viewing your site for half a second.

    Alright thanks for that..I just wondered because it seems a good deal cuz don't all the people who visit the site (paid) count as a thumbs up, plus targettiing age groups is an option as well? (or am I being crazy)..But, thanks for the heads up. I truly appreciate it.

    If you can't get stumbled automatically, then $0.05 per click seems rather alot, but then again, you do have the chance of getting your links in stumblers personal / profile pages and some of them has an alright PR and gets some alright traffic alone.
