StumbleUpon Two-Step
StumbleUpon can be an enormous traffic generator for bloggers and marketers. I use it all the time to market my content and that of colleagues. And I just tested what I call the StumbleUpon Two-Step technique of driving traffic, and it also worked well to drive traffic. Let’s review how I did it.
Recently I launched a PRWEB release about Holiday For Charity. In the release, I had links back to my blog for additional details about the story. I used these tags in the release: holiday, charity, cause marketing, charitable giving, holiday for charity, holiday spending, donation, gift, ad agency, and pr firm.
A month after launching the release, I gave it a thumbs up on StumbleUpon, placed it in the living category and used the cause marketing and charity tags. I had 118 - and still counting - visits referred by that Stumbled url. Based on my PRWEB statistics for the release, I had more than 200 visits from Stumblers on the day I thumbed it up. So, a very high percentage of visitors to the release made the leap to my blog, too.
I have some ideas to test that may bring even more traffic by the two-step method. Do you have any ideas on how to use this or other Stumble techniques? Post your thoughts.
