Install that toolbar and start stumbling onto other websites, and be sure to give your rating for each one that the program throws out at you. Take the time to fully personalize your account, joining those communities that are closest to your personal and business interests.

It was absolutely crazy. I still don't know what I did and I've been trying to duplicate the process ever since, but I still get around 30-70 uniques a day.  I know it's been said a million times, but the trick is to  a) Enjoy Stumbleupon  b) Stumble your friend's stumbles c) Stumble within your niche d) make sure the contest you put is attention grabbing.  Stumbling is like flipping the remote; you have just seconds to grab people's attention. Since I have a dog blog, I make sure I stumble pages that have great pictures, and most importantly, that they are visible above the fold.

A social approach developing soft conversions and nurturing them into hard ones through fostering relationships would be my advice.

I hate how you have to "Sign Up Through Facebook" crap for EVERYTHING these days! It was better when it wasnt affilated with facebook and you can instantly look at random sites w/o signing in to your facebook account where everyone can see wtf your doing!! I still like stumble upon but i just dont like the facebook login BS thats on it. omg! that’s hella lame. I hate how you have to “Sign Up Through Facebook” crap for EVERYTHING these days!
