StumbleUpon can rival Digg?

February 23, 2007 · 7 comments

I just can’t believe that in ONE day my subscriber base has grown from 17 to 476 !

Thank you everyone!

I did some Google Analytics and found that the huge traffic was generated through StumbleUpon!.
This Link got Stumbled and has generated and is generating >8K Traffic per Day.
I thought you have to be ‘Dugged’ to achieve such!

Most of the Feeds are Firefox Live Bookmarks, Yet Analytics showed the browser versions as 2.0 as the majority. So I hope this gives the traffic a little bit more stickiness.

History:

1 – Digg
2 – Read article about Firefox Extensions from Digg
3 – Install STUMBLE
4 – Stumble your site..

In a way Stumble and Digg complement each other

AI – I don’t really think they complement each other.

StumbleUpon traffic is generated by people who actually want to discover something new, and will poke around a site just to see what it’s about.

You’ll find a lot of those ‘Firefox Live Bookmarks’ will quickly disappear, but you should be left with more subscribers at the end of it, so it’s always good.

I love it when someone stumbles one of my posts, and it takes off :-)

Agree we have never “really” been dug but we did join Stumble to see what everyone was raving about and were blown away by the thousands of hits we had and keep getting daily.
