Personal Development for Smart People Forums - View Single Post - Drive Free Traffic to Your Site or Blog with Stumble Upon

Hi All,

I do use the Stumbleupon method to drive traffic to my site, on occasion.

But, I do not, however, find that it has great sticking power.

(Plus if you stumble the same site too many times they block you from stumbling it any further.)

When I look at my stats a see a temporary astronomical boost is visitors, but if I investigate a bit deeper I find that few to none of those stumblers hang around long enough to have read the content.

It also does not appear to garner many loyal fans. It has resulted in a few. But with a sticking power of about 10-20 per thousand, is it really a viable option for getting yourself known?

Yes it is kinda fun, but not a great marketing strategy.

Topic-specific forums seem to work much better.

Blessings on All Your Endeavors,
