· #1 | | NamePros Member | 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.

| 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.

· #6 | | NamePros Member | 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. | |
