I only Stumble my own posts when I am particularly satisfied with them ... not all that often. Hopefully the SU self-stumble cap is not a life-time cap, but one pro-rated over time ... say 24 Stumbles from the same domain per rolling 12 month period. At the current time, I'd be happy to write two SU-good posts per month ... nay, I'd be ecstatic! But, if I did - and if SU allowed me to post just the first 12 of them - I'd expect that the blog would be so popular that I wouldn't have to self-promote on SU any more. How many blogs do you know that kick out a 'defining' post every two weeks? Not many. Ernest Hemingway, eat your heart out! As a SU user, I stay ... sometimes for hours ... on the blogs / sites that have useful content. I will even leave them open overnight if I can't finish them all in one session. OTOH, I'm amscray out of there if the site is junk. That is, if I am greeted by porn, flashing advs., stolen graphics (and nothing but!), all YouTube links, slow-pokey Flash content and so on. I will stay only slightly longer if the style is okay but the writing is junk. While I can appreciate that English is not the first language of many bloggers, it is my ONLY language and if you want to capture my eyeballs, you'll have to do well by it. There seems to be no real limit to how many ways there are to create junk and foist it on an unsuspecting planet. I’m thinking that SU has a useful limit for self-stumbling.

The people do not stay on the site for no time before hitting "stumble" again and if they do they almost never click ads or even come back. I have been told its the same with digg. Numbers are just numbers and people get all excited that they got 1000 page views a hour from stumbleupon but if they did not click one ad then what? I would rather have 600 page views a month and 2000 bucks sold of ads than to have 1 million page views and not a dime. I use stumbleupon quite often but there is one thing I have noticed.
