StumbleUpon BlackHat Trick

Subscribe in a reader Internet Business November 30th, 2007

People can be mad about this or whatever but it does work, sometimes. Use at your own risk. For the people that read, “blackhat”, please do not get all worked up. That term does not neccessarily mean it is illegal. This is a very simple way to drive traffic to your site and of course you are expoiting the system, so its not illegal. After I show you how to do this, I will show you how to automate it.

First, if you have not signed up with stumbleupon.com, go now and get your free account and then activate your toolbar. The site is pretty simple and should take you around 20 minutes or so to figure everything out if you have never been there before.

The manual way to get traffic is to mutually stumble a person’s site. You basically stumble a site you do like and they stumble yours back. To find people who want to do this just head over to: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=105

Blackhat Stumble

Before anything, I will say that it does not matter which method you use if your site has poor quality content. If you are just promoting affiliate programs, I would suggest that you write a very high quality report and publish that on a neat and clean .html page. The whole purpose of stumble upon is to get that “thumbs up” for your site or post so more people want to look at it. So make sure your content has a high percieved value before starting this manual method.

To sum up, this method has intentions of bribing other people to stumble your site and give you a thumbs up. You will need a bonus to give them after they’ve stumbled your site. Bonuses such as free reports, software, videos, scripts or ebooks.

Now the real trick here is to automate it. This will make this manual method explode and drive some good traffic to your site. Here is how it works…

1. You download and install the script to your server
2. You create a bonus that people can give away as a bribe
3. You then ask people to stumble upon a few pages on your website but no more than 10 pages.
4. After stumbling, they submit thier stumbleupon username through that form from the script.
5. The script then crawls thier stumbleupon.com page to verify that indeed they did stumble your site.
6. Then after all that is verified, you then are redirected to the bonus page for thier hard work!
You will need a php and MysQL database to install the script. If you don’t know how to do this, then outsource this task to someone for like $15. The link for that script is http://www.suhack.com
