The Best Method To Thank Your Blog’s Stumbler Is
In last few days I have been receiving huge traffic for my homepage and the credit goes to the generous stumble upon users who gave thumbs-up votes to my blog’s homepage in regular intervals. Few days back Caroline wrote why she thanks the stumblers who stumble her blog and after 2 days she was there writing an article about the kind of abusive response which she received from few people on the idea of thanking (even though I appreciate the idea of thanking those who like your content..common sense!)
In last 2-3 days I have earned around 8 thumps-up for my homepage and the traffic has been proportional. So I thought why not link back to those who have stumbled my blog instead of filling there message box in there stumble upon account.
So why should you thank your stumblers?
More thumps-up votes you get for your blog, proportionally more traffic you get from stumble upon. But thumps-down could result in killing of traffic too, so better have good content before thinking about stumble upon traffic.
Moreover thanking the people who appreciate your blog means making friends online which are bound to bring in ‘word of mouth’ publicity for your blog.
Summary
Instead of messaging the people who stumble your blog better send them some link love. They will appreciate it. Atleast I would if someone links to my blog
So here goes the list of people who recently stumbled my blog’s homepage and some articles.
