The Beginner’s Guide to Advertising on StumbleUpon
Friday, October 31st, 2008Out of all the social media websites, StumbleUpon is my favorite. Not only do I enjoy using StumbleUpon, but in terms of sending traffic, I don’t think any of the other social media websites can compare. While Digg can send a huge flood of traffic over the course of a couple of days (which can bring down your website’s server if you’re not prepared), StumbleUpon can continue sending a steady stream of traffic for even weeks or months. For example, my 50 Simple Tips for Improving Your Website post was submitted over a month ago, but it’s been reviewed twice in the last day.
One thing that many people don’t know about StumbleUpon is that they allow advertising. Although I’ve heard people complain that StumbleUpon advertising is too expensive (the cost is $0.05 per visitor that sees your page), they are obviously missing the point of how to maximize a StumbleUpon advertising campaign.
