StumbleUpon Traffic Tactics
This is a web search engine with an escalating number of member
usages that directs traffic to your site when it picks up on content that
is recommended to the users. It allows users to discover and rate
your web pages, photos and videos drawing from their interests and tastes.
This is a peer sourced based social networking program where the principles
can be applied to gain traffic to your business or marketing web page in
order to be seen.
Tool bars are present for many widgets for other social or advertising networks which re-direct users to the sites you want them to see
and gets your name and offerings out to them. It does this by filtering and
combining similar opinions of interests and personal preferences to create
web communities. This virtual web community, based on similar
interests, fans out rapidly and causes others to ‘Stumble Upon’ what you
have to
offer.
One way to look at it is if driving through road construction is
sending you on an alternate route, this guides you to where the user wants to
go based on their basic interest and can turn the detour into a sale or
another client when they go through your website.
This site is spreading rapidly going from peer to peer and friend
to friend. It has a use rating feature by doing thumbs up or thumbs down so if
you have a good website, hopefully when they are directed to it they like
what they see. Users are also able to rate on what they are re-directed to
by making comments or using discussion boards that also takes their common
themes of interest and uses them to connect others to your site. So
basically ‘word of mouth’ is what causes this networking service to grow and
guides more of the media trafficking to your site.
