    Stumbleupon is great if you have neat and helpful content or if you just want to explore things - it's a great Social Media website.

    None of my links seem to get any likes. I think I might be ghost banned or something. Reddit is way better for me.

    I agree. StumbleUpon provides legitimate traffic. It introduces your website, especially when you write a helpful post which will help you acquire new readers and fans.

    Not really, it is not the super power it once was and sure it may bring a lot of visitors but not quality visitors, the average time they spend on sites is like 15 seconds....that's terrible!

      That's a good point. If they're in Stumbler Mode, the chances that they'll stay on your site for any length of time are low.

      Agree. When you share your page it gets quick visitors but adds in the bounce rate. Unless you really have a good content then it's a plus. But I still use stumbleupon as a social bookmarking site. You can add more niche social media to your campaign. It is best to use social media giants to drive high traffic to your site.

    I read somewhere that google adsense does not support this type of traffics. For this reason I don't use stumbleupon for my adsense blog. But it is good source of traffic for my another blog.

    I agree it can generate loads of traffic, but the traffic quality hasn't been nearly as good as most other sources. Otherwise I'd use it more, including the paid option.

    I love Stumbleupon! I browse the site mainly for the beautiful nature pictures as I'm a big nature lover. I also love the life quotes and book recommendations I got from there. Overall, some of the most amazing content I've seen about the topics that interest me came from Stumbleupon.

    I think it's great for curating content to share to your audience as well for getting inspirations for blog posts/articles. It's certanly useful for content creators and social media managers like me. If you're going to use it for promoting your product or service, the key is to not be pushy but post really quality post that Stumblers will love.
