How to Guarantee Page Views Using StumbleUpon

StumbleUpon, Source of Guaranteed Page Views

StumbleUpon 

     StumbleUpon has been great. Currently, we have so few page views that what StumbleUpon does contribute seems to quantify a large portion of our total traffic. So, It is reasonable to suggest that the effect would not be so influential on a larger blog, but the concept of guaranteed page views or traffic, no matter how small, still applies. StumbleUpon works but displaying user uploaded content to subscribers. This is in essence force feeding pages to StumbleUpon users. Users can choose what type of content they want to be given but beyond that they have little influence. Thus they have no idea whether they are going to be shown something from Problogger.net or from my site and thus have to be submitted as traffic to my blog. Now, they can down vote my content, but because StumbleUpon has to show the content to others users to avoid biases I am guaranteed more views regardless of the quality of the content. One would hope though that your content was good enough that it generated some positive feedback, but this is irrelevant being that the point is that by submitting your content to StumbleUpon you are guaranteed a certain number of views. 

The image above illustrates how influential StumbleUpon is in generating Traffic to the blog

    Currently, according to the blog's stats page StumbleUpon makes up my largest referrer, thus I recommend using StumbleUpon to generate a very small stream of traffic. To make uploading you pages to StumbleUpon I recommend that you download the StumbleUpon browser add-on so you can upload your content more easily. 


Thanks Again
