StumbleUpon Day

by Lyndon Antcliff on January 16, 2008

I’ve decided to make today Stumbleupon day, I’m going to Stumble more pages than ever before and review a ton of Stumblers.

Let me know if you want your stumble blog reviewed in the comments below with a link to your stumble blog, this may mean other people will visit your blog.

I think this will help me connect with new Stumblers, I think I have stumbled most of my network, this will help me fill in the gap.

You don’t have to stumble me back, this is not what this is about.

Have you noticed whilst Stumbleupon encourages networking, digg is anti networking. I honestly think Stumble will triumph over digg because of this. Stumble respects its users as it lives and dies by them, whilst digg seems to mistrust its users, even those who have helped build their business by banning them. Can you believe that.

Anyway, this is not intending to be an anti digg post, I still get great benefit from getting clients to the front page. I am trying out a new coffee, Cart Noir, and it has fired up the furnace so to speak.

Would like to post more but have a ton of client work to be getting on with, now where is that second cup?

This is an awesome idea Lyndon… I’d like to become a “courtisan” too :P

Will be passing round the “pay it forward” vibe today :)

Wow – I don’t think I’ve ever seen link-bait quite this effective.

Bravo.

damn. belated. ah well. caught it on the reader a day late. Great idea though. let’s just hope this little stunt doesn’t get everyone kicked off stumble. then we’d have to send them an email begging for forgiveness.

Will you be doing this on the regular? I think it would be fun to do this and perhaps blog about some of the best ideas. There’s always plenty to post about after some time a-stumblin.

rock on. :)

Oh, I like that idea. Too bad I missed it. Maybe I’ll pick a day next week and make it MY Stumble Upon day and do the same as you.

Feel free to check out my website (blog). I’d also love to know hw to get the “Stumble This!” icon (not just text but a “hot linked” graphic onto my sidebar! Stumble Upon’s directions are confusing!

Thyanks,

Carol

stumble is way better than digg in my opinion.

As always, an exceptional idea for a post and, as always, I don’t read it until weeks after! (been busy with ace new client).

http://www.CutTheMustardInternet.com is a blog turned website of my new independant SEO consultancy (I’m leaving the full service agency game for good!) that I’ve just transferred over from my blogger account. I’ve started to build an SEO trust directory on it:
http://cutthemustardinternet.com/seo-recommended/
The idea being that only the original members can place other trusted members on there. Happy stumbling!

I love SU. I’m the primary admin for 1389 Blog – Antijihadist Tech – our primary focus is promoting freedom of speech and the press for the counterterrorist community. We also track the effort to combat e-jihadists, other “hard news” stories not adequately covered elsewhere, and some tech tips.

We have found that SU is great for building traffic to our articles, for making new friends, even for locating potential blog contributors. The problems that are inherent in Digg don’t even come up in SU.

Stop by and visit me on SU – I’m 1389ad.
