It's about target marketing. If you 'blast' your message out to everyone - that's what you'll get. Buy a random email list and expecting results? Think again. Target. Target. Target.

Also, for anyone who has used Stumbleupon, it is a cool service for discovering new content. But usually the traffic you get to your website is really untargeted and never converts.

Thanks. Both comments helped. I didn't understand that StumbleUpon generates traffic that's often too diverse.

Very funny cartoon. True in so many ways.

They need to have stumbledupon for specific industries or vertical markets. I want to know stuff about more specific subjects

Gotta agree, we get 15% of our blog visitors from stumple upon, but they are just that - visitors. Sticky content or not, they look at the one page they have been offered to view and then leave. Pest control is a very niche market I suppose!
