StumbleUpon Traffic - Part 2


How Can StumbleUpon Benefit You?


If you are looking to send a surge of traffic to a new website or blog, Stumbleupons advertising options may be a lucrative and easy way to achieve instant results.

StumbleUpon Ads allows webmasters to submit a page on their sites or blogs that is shown to StumbleUpon users as they stumble through a series of websites. It has quickly become a popular choice for bloggers who wish to advertise their new blogs, as the traffic received is purely organic, the best type of traffic you can get.

The cost is also quite reasonable at just 5 cents per impression, meaning, for as little as $5.00 in advertising credit, you can receive 100 Stumble Upon users visit and review your website.

It’s also an easy advertising vehicle, in fact, it doesn’t even require you to manually create advertisements, but instead, you simply select a website URL that you would like the traffic directed to.

Advertising with StumbleUpon is also quite flexible. You can target your pages to be seen throughout specific categories, or base it on demographics. This enables you to really target who sees specific pages .

As for price setting, you can choose your maximum daily spending limit, to ensure that you stay within your intended budget, and best of all, you can pay using either a credit card or via Paypal, if you choose.

Note: If you are particularly careful when creating your ad campaigns and target your visitors as best as you can, expect to receive a lot more traffic then you actually paid for. The more people who like your website when they visit (and therefore “Stumble! – it”) the more traffic you will continue to get, at no extra cost. Therefore, be careful when targeting specific categories, groups or demographics.

As an advertiser, you will be given full stats including a visible chart on how many visitors actually viewed your website, how many gave you a “Thumbs Up!” (or down) and so on. This helps you test the effectiveness of your ad-copy and modify if needed.

It’s truly a great source of traffic. In fact, traffic is quite long term. I am still receiving traffic for web pages that I stumbled weeks ago.
