The bounce rate from stumbleupon visits is typically about twice as high as other internet ad referrals.

You can buy your way into people's "Stumble" buttons so they see your site. Of course it's up to you to capture the eyeballs (subscribe?) but at least it's guaranteed traffic. The reason this is great is that if people "thumbs up" your page it will be sent to other users, and you don't pay for those other views. Therefore, if your page really is stumble-worthy, you get many more views than those you paid for. A good technique with SU is to sign up for their paid program.

Also it is not smart just to stumble your own stuff. The most popular sites on Stumble Upon are humor based and video based. For your ad agency perhaps a viral video keeping your agency in the background will work nicely. Like any social site you have to provide interesting content before you will gain any following.

I had never heard about StumbleUpon until one referrer sent 71 views to my site in one day. Problem is, it happened that time and hasn't happened since. How can I get that to happen again? Any ideas?
