Want traffic to your website? Here's a little trick

I'm a big fan of Stumbleupon. My user name is johngrif. I found a great article on tricks you can use to get more traffic to your website by using SU.

A little background: Stumbleupon is dedicated to letting people share the sites they love with others, and letting people discover new websites with a “random” kind of feature. Basically, it lets you select categories you’re interested in, and it’ll display other sites people have recommended within that category.

Some of Michelle MacPhearsons' tips are here.

**** HOT TIPS ****

Forward this blog entry to your friends, fans, whomever! Tell them to install the StumbleUpon toolbar and give your site a big “Thumbs Up!” The more thumbs up you get, the more often your page will be seen by other StumbleUpon users interested in your category.

It’s a good idea to rate some other websites as well - maybe some you frequent, friend’s pages, or just hit the “Stumble” button on the toolbar and click “Thumbs Up” or “Thumbs Down” on what comes up.

Finally, don’t overlook the possibility of rating not just your homepage, but inside pages of your site as well. If they’ve got interesting content others would appreciate, Stumble them!

I hope this little traffic tip gives you a boost in your daily website visitors! Remember to categorize your site properly, it really helps in getting others to click the “Thumbs Up” button!

Let me know if it works for you.
