Comments on: Why StumbleUpon Sends More Traffic Than Digg

Good insight! Traffic and links are good, but since I have little to offer the Digg demographic, I suppose the traffic would be more challenging to manage than profitable.

if you can write fresh articles fast and then quickly submit them to lots of big article directories, then your site will surely be indexed a whole lot faster.

Great post,

Right now I am not really getting a lot of traffic form either digg or stumbleupon but I am working on it and I hope I can get it done.

Digg has good traffic, I agreed.

However, I have learned from online forums that article submission is the best method to get indexed faster on Google. Mr. G. loves it. Other Search engines will index your site if you have more and more back links.

Anyway, you can write fresh articles and submit them to big article directories, your site will be indexed faster.

Thanks.

I think digg’s traffic is great. It is about 8 times comparing to splashdot. Digg is popular to the world including Western, Eastern, and Asian countries.

Thanks for sharing this great article.

I like Stumble Upon but I think I like Digg better because it makes my sites rank higher for the keywords I use.

I posted a satire article titled “Research finds Nickelback Caused Global Warming”. And it got well over 30,000 visitors in less than 24 hours.

I’m expecting it to hit the 40,000 / 50,000 mark by this afternoon when it will be 24 hours.

At the time of posting this comment I’ve received thus far in under 24 hours.

Pageviews: 30,353
Unique pageviews: 21,271
Time on page: 00:01:30
Bounce Rate: 60.96%

I absolutely love Stumbleupon.

Nah, SU is by far better… It has very active and friendly community as well.

Stumbleupon is still the undisputed king of push button traffic. It doesn’t come without some initial setup first though. Many people make the false assumption that they can sign up, submit their own site and sit back while the visitors come rolling in. Actually it takes setting up your profile and adding friends who share the same interests as you to get thing rolling. By carefully coordinating your submissions and using the power of your friend network you can begin to see massive results. Tip: Use the Send to: function to leverage your friends and get momentum.

Stumble brings in big traffic spikes on a couple of days a month but digg seems to be more consistent.

When it spikes, SU really rocks – most of the time tests my hosting service to the peak as well.

SU does bring great traffic but it doesn’t convert the way I would like it to. Digg on the other hand helps me get a good ranking in Google unlike SU.

I noticed the same trend actually, SU is more consistent but Digg provides me with the great random people.

Interesting

StumbleUpon is the best, I was on Digg 5hours/per day working articles up in the digg front pages and in the last 2months i found that my articles aren’t being dugg and none of my 800+ friends were ever online. I went to alexa.com and looked at digg’s traffic and found-out that there traffic has dropped over half.

I wrote a article on the decrease of traffic at digg on my website:

WHY IS THE TRAFFIC FOR DIGG.COM DOWN BY OVER 70% SINCE JUNE 2008

A great article, Darren.

My family asked me last night “Why use StumbleUpon?”, so today I decided to really research why one should use it and really give it a go myself (I use it, but haven’t really explored it). I have used Digg and do use it, but after playing with SU for a few hours, I’ve noticed I bounce less (as you mentioned too) than when I do when viewing Digg articles.

Great

I am already on Digg, but will be going to StumbleUpon straightaway!
