My traffic isn't particularly impressive (it's okay, just not great) but today I have a huge spike and I finally figured out one of my pages which has been limping along traffic-wise is getting most of its visits today from StumbleUpon. Very cool! And it was someone else who "StumbledUpon" it.
Usually it gets maybe 2 - 5 visits a day, and right now it's up around 125. Nice!
Very good, Karen!
SU can be a great traffic generator. You should have an account there and enter your articles, every once in a while.
But be careful - if you enter only your works, and never look at and rate (thumbs up or down) other people's sites, you may get kicked out for a year. Happened to me in my first Squidoo year.
I had tried occasionally adding a Squidoo lens to StumbleUpon, without any success (I know I didn't take too much time to rate other sites -- I did some though), so I gave up on it. It is another good tool though, if I use it intelligently :-)
It'll be interesting to see how long this current burst of traffic lasts (this morning it's back down again, for now).
Congratulations, Karen! What a nice thing to discover.
Thanks -- it looks like the effect lasted just one day, but still it was fun while it lasted

Hahahah it happens usually like this but still someone at least is noticing your work :)
