StumbleUpon Traffic...

Recently one of my tutorials got "stumbled" by someone and during that day my traffic exploded with people using StumbleUpon. At the peak I had 266 from it over a time period of 5 minutes, and over the day I accumulated 100s of visitors.

Now I have not had a visitor from StumbleUpon since that day... so how exactly does the traffic work because I got the impression that it would keep getting stumbled over time? Do I need to maintain a certain amount of thumbs up to keep getting traffic or something?

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.

Some how your site gets listed on as a hot site or something. This has happen to me a couple of times but it only lasted a day each.

I think when someone stumbles your site it becomes "newly stumbled" or something to that effect and hundreds or possibly thousands of people see it and click on it. I find stumble upon traffic or any other social bookmark traffic is hard to monetize. I also find the traffic to be hardly quality at all and they usually stay on the site anywhere from 0 seconds to 1 min on average.

StumbleUpon isn't that great for recurrent visitor, all it does is drive a one-day spike of visitors to your site who may never visit again.

Keep in mind that alot of your SU traffic is generated through your tags and how relevant those initial visitors deem your content
