I recently joined SU and I have yet to figure out what to do with it. I just did it and put it on a shelf so to speak. I will have to get back into this and read more about stumbling. Thanks

@TheContestBlogger - Early mistakes can definitely be rectified. I know because I made those same early mistakes but now SU accounts for over 60% of my traffic referrals. I still Stumble my own pages sometimes and when I do, SU actually starts sending me traffic - rather than taking it away! But when I do stumble a page of my own I make sure that I stumble 5-10 other pages as well. Thus, my own pages only make up a very small percent of all my stumbles. It also helps to discover new pages and become friends with other stumblers who share your interests. @Eric - Mine is albie34423.

That’s interesting. StumbleUpon is something I have heard of a lot but have not really used yet. Great tips! I especially like the part about how to attract more StumbleUpon visitors to my site. I’m definitely going to check out this out myself! Keep It SEO Simples last blog post..Application Letter For Copywriting Position

Hi, you have really great tips there. You perfectly explained the mindset of professional stumblers, like they never stay more than a few minutes and they never explore deeply into a site. Like Denise said, I believe it is true that your 'juice' or influence in the SU network will increase or decrease depending on your activity, whether you're actively stumbling or do you always stumble your own site. I made the mistake of stumbling my own pages, I wonder whether the early mistakes can be rectified by being a more responsible and active stumbler. I am lucky though, never had too many people thumbing down what I submitted. TheContestBloggers last blog post..Workout IQ Contest

Hey,

Just wondering with all this SU talk, what is everyone’s stumble page. Maybe we could at least check each others sites out. And maybe add each other as friends or something. Just a thought.

Stumbleupon Rocks!

I like to hear SU experiences. CPU overload sucks but it happens to the best of us.

For a while I was stumbling some of my own pages and not much else – my SU traffic slowed eventually to zero. Then I began actually using the service the way it was meant to use – I stumbled pages, thumbed up what I liked, added friends, stumbled through their pages, etc. Now SU is my #1 source of traffic by a long shot. I have even had my site shut down temporarily twice due to sudden bursts of SU traffic heating up the CPU on my shared hosting account (wish I could afford a dedicated server…).

“Make sure that you only Stumble the best pages on your domain.”

Good point…I don’t stumble all of my pages. Just the ones that I think a stumbler might actually pause to read.

The few things that I have found with stumble is just like anything else with SEO. I feel that you have to make it first natural and with in your scheme of your pages and niche. Of course it's going to stick out like a sore thumb if you have been stumbling sites all about SEO and than you through in something about a celebrity. Second, just be real with what you have and make it fun. The best part that I have found about stumbleupon is that really is a lot of fun and that's what keep people coming back and keep on stumbling. Lastly, I found that images are king on stumbleupon it's a very image driven social site. So I found the most success with quality and relative stumbles with great images will bring and keep bringing the stumblers back for more. Just my two cents of how to keep SEO simple stupid!
