Get More StumbleUpon Traffic

[Matthew Sherborne]

The best way to get more StumbleUpon traffic is to increase your high profile friends count. Here's the whitehat method I use to get more website visitors by building a bigger network of top ranking Stumble users.

Before you attempt to locate these friends and friend them in the hopes that they will add you as their friend in return you should do a few things.

Start by first sprucing up your profile with artwork, pictures or photography to make your StumbleUpon profile visually appealing. This way you don't look like you just started out on the site. StumbleUpon users want to make sure that you are active on the site before they will add you. This gives their Stumbles more exposure.

Second, you may want to build up your friends count by visiting other Stumble profiles. Give them a thumbs up, then review their page. Then add them as a friend and send them a comment, saying something that you liked about they website or stumbles. Make sure to say, I added you as a friend, and compliment them.

Once you've build up your Stumble profile with some pictures, votes and friends you should attempt to get on the good side of the top Stumblers. You can find the top StumbleUpon users at:

StumbleUpon » Top Stumblers

or at the StumbleRank site: StumbleRank - Ranking Top StumbleUpon Users for Fun and Competition

You want to look for users who have less then 200 friends so they can add you back.(If they have over 200 friends they can not add you back and you will not benefit from the relationship)

Follow the steps laid out above to friend the top users who still have space available. Remember to be yourself. Social networking is all about being real and forming relationships. Make sure to visit your friends occasionally and keep the friendship going.

Now on the blackhat side of things...If your looking to quickly build the power of your Stumble profile. Nothing beats a pretty face and spruced up profile. Think profile pic of girl with a lollypop, etc. Embellish your profile with some more graphics of cute girls in different levels of undress on your profile pages. Never use naked pics in order to abide by the terms of a normal profile, which you want.

It's a sad but true fact that this is the fastest way to grow a popular Stumble page with the least amount of effort. Now go forth and generate a whole lot of completely untargeted Stumble traffic!
