Stumbled Lately? Share Your Best Stumbles

I can’t express how much I truly love StumbleUpon.

If you’re not familiar with StumbleUpon it’s a service that helps you share interesting websites and discover new ones. So rather than searching for quality sites, you are taken directly to them from suggestions from the community. Pages submitted to the site have been recommended by friends or websurfers with interests similar to yours, with nearly 500 topics to choose from.

You can rate websites with a simple 2 rating system, it’s either a thumbs up or thumbs down / . Downloading the StumbleUpon toolbar (works on both IE and Firefox) will give you an easy way to thumbs up () a website and automatically share it with the community.

StumbleUpon has been very kind to my sites and can deliver around 50-60% of my daily traffic. Submitting your site to StumbleUpon will give you lots of traffic and if you get a lot of thumbs up, you could get even more.

Why else should you use StumbleUpon?

  1. To Increase Traffic
  2. To Increase Exposure
  3. To Increase RSS Subscribers
  4. To Find More Interesting Sites

It’s fun to use their service not only for traffic reasons but to find new sites. I found some good ones ones the other day that I wanted to share with you:

So have you stumbled lately? If so, share your best stumbles!
