Many Bloggers do not even know what StumbleUpon is. I get about 50% of my traffic from StumbleUpon. Last night I had over 20 blog views within minutes from StumbleUpon, and it was after midnight.
StumbleUpon is similar to Pinterest. They recommend content to users who can increase your traffic.
The downside there is a dislike button. So make sure your blog post has no grammatical errors or pop-up ads.
Start Stumbling great content.
Many Facebook blogger support groups include StumbleUpon threads that will enable you to have your post Stumbled many times. That increases your reach.
Start following other Stumblers that post content you like. StumbleUpon is a social media website after all. Make sure to like their posts. Create lists and add blog posts you love to them and add a few of yours.
Stumbling is a breeze in the Chrome browser there is an add-on that enables you to Stumble even if the page does not have a StumbleUpon Button.
You are doing yourself a real disservice if you do not have a StumbleUpon Button on your blog in the toolbar. Many blogger networking and sharing groups do StumbleUpon promos, and when you do not have a stumble button, this is annoying to other bloggers who have to Stumble your post manually.
When you start blogging, you have to network with other bloggers, or you won't make it. Rarely do any blogs become successful overnight. You must participate in sharing groups if you don't have a Stumble button and a blogger with 10,000 subscribers decides to skip your post because of this your only hurting your self.
StumbleUpon works best when many users stumble your content. So do not post in the same Stumble threads in the same group every day or your visibility could decrease. Join multiple promotional groups and rotate the days you post your StumbleUpon link in each one.
It also helps to know when to Stumble your blog. I live in California, and I've noticed when I post at two am here when its five am on the east coast I get more organic StumbleUpon clicks. Try Stumbling at various times of the day to see which is best for your blog.
Early in the morning, how to posts seem to do well. I posted on how to look Fab in Five, and it exploded. Recipes for some do well around five when people are getting off work and planning dinner.
Now you know my tips. Use the Stumble button and add-on. Find out when to Stumble your particular niche. Follow others and interact with them. Join Facebook promotional groups that will get you a head start on Stumbling.
Go ahead and start Stumbling.
