Thumbs up on Stumbleupon and stock market update 9-19-07 9:30am

Posted on Sep 19, 2007 by CHESSNOID in Uncategorized | 2 Comments

Today was a big surprise in my volume of readers passing through. There was a huge spike in traffic. I checked out my statistics and the majority is coming from Stumbleupon on my business article on the stock market and housing bust. I really don’t understand how it directs traffic to my site. I stumbled a few times and it is like speedreading the internet. I do like it that I am able to find lots of things I do like, but it makes you realize how vastly infinite the internet truly is. I wish I understood the stumbleupon so I could duplicate what I did to repeat the traffic. My best guess of why it is happening is because a very generous high ranking stumbler gave me a thumbs up and that is sending me stumblers. Again, just a guess from an amateur blogger. Thanks for everyone visiting and reading. I do appreciate it and I hope you enjoyed reading my blog.

    it’s amazing when you have a stumblespike eh?
    I had one for my master chief post and managed to catch the tail end of it with a screen recorder while I was using a live stats plugin… 141 visitors were on the site at the same time! lol I’ll make a post about it later this week.

    I’ve seen on of your posts when I stumbled before so it means you’re getting seen!

    Hi Andy, It is a blessing from the blog traffic gods and I can only appreciate it while it lasts. ;)
    If I could duplicate whatever I did, then that would be even better.
