StumbleUpon: Unconventional Way of Driving Traffic

December 21, 2007SEO'dNo Comments

As we go deeper and deeper in the Web 2.0 era, new traffic strategies come out everyday. One exciting way to drive organic traffic to your website is using StumbleUpon. StumbleUpon is a web 2.0 community that allows people to find terrific sites in their interest categories based on what the community has voted for. In essence, StumbleUpon is Viral Marketing 2.0. With StumbleUpon you could also advertise your site for $0.05 per impression which is pretty cheap. The ingenious aspect of this model is that you are not relying on a 35 word headline to define what your site is. On StumbleUpon your site will be your listing, and once you get people to your website, you can expect your traffic to grow exponentially if you offer quality content. I have seen sites that have increased their traffic by anywhere between 2 to 4 X, which is pretty good considering how cheap it is to get an StumbleUpon campaign up and running. Not a conventional SEO method, but it is well worth it!
