Do Use Stumbleupon?

[dmcbane]

I've read that StumbledUpon frowns on people submitting their own sites and penalizes for it. Most of the blog posts I've submitted have received a few views at the most and some none at all, so there may be some truth to that. Does anyone know for sure?

StumbleUpon is very good to generate instant traffic to your website. Use the stumble option when you log in to the website. You comment and other option, interact with the other stumbler to see thee best results.

The traffic from stumbleupon is just that...no conversions here, this is probably the dumbest social media site on the web

Where you read that?

I'm curious to find out more about this.

Nope, the only "unpopular" social site I've used was Bebo.

I found it!!

Can I use StumbleUpon to promote my web page?

I have used it for one of my YouTube videos and it consistently brings in about 1k views a month for being on Stumble. I've had a lot of other things fail too btw. That video now has over 60k views.

if you are looking for just traffic..stumble upon is useful abit...but if would like to market some products online...then...don't waste your time there..

It generates traffic but conversion can be poor

[expertseo]

Yes stumble upon helps to increase traffic but it increase bounce rate.

[arish]

Yes of-course. Stumble upon get high traffic for the website.. Lots of members registered and sharing their good information. No waiting.. Just Register instantly.

I never really got into stumble. I feel like it's for people with too much time on their hands. Plus who wants to randomly find things, as opposed to just searching for exactly what you want all the time.

I started using it but I don't think there are many visitors flowing from it.

but SumbleUpon has many interesting sites, but like Aw1 said stumbling is for people who have too much time

[dmcbane]

I also don't get many visitors when I submit one of my posts to StumbleUpon. I think you need to have some people 'thumbs up' your submission so that it continues to be shown to others, but I'm not sure. I seems like no one really knows exactly how the site works.
