Stumble Your Way to Higher Traffic
Friday, October 12th, 2007 @ 8:54 pm
I’m doing it, stumbling my way to higher traffic. It should work shouldn’t it? Top stumblers recieve hundreds of profile views a week, and a lot of them promote their own websites.
I created my profile and started stumbling right away because I have a lot of ground to cover. The top stumbler likes over 22,000 pages, 1000 videos, 2000 photos, has 700 fans and recieved 185 reviews… so It will be a while before I get there.
My profile is here, I reviewed 5 websites already, and hope to review and favorite popular websites that I can get traffic from. So if you want to find good blogs or websites that you can get additional traffic from by commenting on them then subscribe to my stumble favorites here.

I don’t believe that traffic can do much to your website.. since those views are not targeted.. they just walk into your site and then leaves, few will subscribe to the feed.

Ah, yes, but this is Web 2.0. People are into branding themselves, thats why blogs and social networking websites are so huge! You’ve got mega giants out there on T.V. telling you they are an expert in their field and millions listen to every word, on the internet we have the same thing, we’ve got bloggers writing posts everyday sharing their infinite knowledge on their area of expertise. In terms of personal branding stumbleupon is a great tool because you get to share what websites you like, where you get information, and shed a little more of your expertise. You get to promote yourself on stumbleupon, not just your website. You can target yourself to the audience you are seeking if you favorite websites that deal with your expertise/blog/website. If they like what you like on stumbleupon they’ll probably like what you have to say on your blog or website. A fan on stumble is a fan of you, and a fan of you will subscribe to your feed.
