Generating Massive Traffic from StumbleUpon

StumbleUpon is a large social network that caters to people who are fans of discovering new sites and sharing what they have stumbled to their peers and friends.

You can derive massive amount of traffic from StumbleUpon if done right. As with my experience I generated at most 170 unique views from it in just 3 hours by just favoriting one of my blog post. The only problem is that most of the traffic will never come back. You have to submit your every post so that interested stumblers will visit it.

However, it is advisable that before you promote your own site or blog post you should first take the time to enhance your profile and make friends with other stumblers. You should at least take the time to stumble or even comment about the sites, photos, and videos that other stumblers have favorited or discovered. In this way, you will create trustworthiness and not be seen as opportunist.

If you have the knack in writing then you can write high quality and entertaining content then try submitting it to stumble upon and you will see how people will feast on it. Try to write something that appeal to the emotion, feelings, or something that is of human interest. This will bring you even thousands of unique hits in just one day.
