We have been doing alot of testing lately with stumbleupon - we feel out of most of the social sites stumble has the means to bring in the most targetted traffic on a long term basis. We all know about the digg effect but how long does that last it will probably bring you a heck of alot of traffic all in the space of a few hours - while this is good in some ways such as the backlinks we feel that the stuble effect is a much more pleasant one.
If anyone reading does not know what stumbleupon is, its basically a (well how shall we put it), ok as people say a social websites where its members download a toolbar and can stumble a page they can either click on like or dislike the more positive stumbles your site gets the more it will be featured in the tagged category thus bringing in more targetted traffic. Its abit like the old traffic exchange sites where you used to view people sites and earn credits the more credits you earned the more visitors you got.
The best thing about stumbleupon is the vast amount of backlinks that it creates, every review will be picked up by search engines especially Google almost immediatly increasing your link juice. We will write a full review of stumbleupon.com in the near future - but we’d just thought we would let you know its a very positive effect using this site
Our quick top tips are be an active member this plays a big role in your campaign, also try to build up your friends base. To get you started a good website to use is stumblexchange, its a website where you can exchange stumbles with other users.
