The users are generally more focused on quality content, rather than spamming the system….

The biggest thing SU has going for it, is that it’s fun, unlike many of the others.

Definately Stumbleupon, its gives you a better quality of targeted traffic. You can get visitors really quickly when one of your pages is stumbled and its always people who want to see your site because they have likeminded interests.

I wish there was another site that was as good and as easy to use as Stumbleupon, not only do you get all the above, you get to find out about other fantastic sites you may not have found.

So far I have been receiving a lot more traffic from Digg than on StumbleUpon. Because of this I’ve focused more on posting for Digg but I’ll make sure to put some emphasis into StumbleUpon with the hope of getting some great traffic on there since other people have good results.

I love Stumbleupon, because the more you put into it, the more you get back. You get to discover lots of interesting sites and you become your own judge, too� It’s really a very reliable service.

Stumbleupon is fun, the people are great and the traffic is amazing. The rest don’t even compare.

I just started a blog, and have only advertised it through StumbleUpon. First month or so, my highest # of visitors was around 80. Today, I hit about 700, after putting several of my posts on SU. I didn’t get too many comments or anything, but the increase of traffic was amazing. I just hope they stay. ;)

Let them eat cake!

If your users have voted StumbleUpon as their social bookmarking tool of choice, why doesn’t the cute StumbleIt link enjoy prominence under “Share this”, “What’s next” along with Digg & Delicious?

A food blogging friend and I have been analyzing the traffic we get from these services. SU provides far and above more visitors than any other. I can get thousands of visitors from them in a day. The problem is the stickiness of the SU visitors. They helicopter in, then out. They don’t stick around, they don’t click on ads. My CTR on my ads go down considerably on the days I get a lot of traffic from SU. I think del.icio.us is a much better source for quality traffic, at least to my site.

For me, Stumbleupon generates more traffic than any other social site. But it seems to be pretty worthless traffic. I’m looking for leads, and I only seem to get those through the Google search results.

I had originally voted for Digg because I wasn’t really familiar with the other choices. But just last week when I had some free time, I decided to try out StumbleUpon. Of course the first thing I did when I signed up was stumble various posts on my own blog O:-) But other people have stumbled my blog also and SU has been the top referrer to my blog every day for the past week; and surprising with only a 30% bounce rate according to Analytics. SU is also a good way to find new websites on topics I never knew existed. Overall StumbleUpon has been great for me! I know the poll is already closed and that I had originally voted for Digg, but StumbleUpon now gets my vote!

Stumbleupon has always been one of my favorites in social bookmarking.. And is one of the easiest ways to get instant traffic.
Not always the traffic comes and leaves in a minute. If your content is matching and upto their expectation, you can get some good subscribers to your blog too :)

One of the most important elements of SU, and why it’s probably so popular amongst problogger readers, is the element of personalization. Just like the best blogs showcase a person’s individuality, SU also affords that ability.

I agree with the first comment, definately. StumbleUpon has simply been my best traffic referrer, among all the SBsite I use.

Great information (as usual).
Thanks!
