I agree with a few that making "Loyal" visitors is the real job... There's no point in getting Higher Bounce rates. That actual hurts you by purchasing more bandwidth and also hurts the revenue stream as in case of Adsense you'll get more Impressions and very few clicks and that'll drop your eCPM to which you'll be ashamed of :) Very Nice Article…

Sending out your new article to all your stumblefriends SHOULD result in enhanced pageviews but it often doesn't. So, how do you get your posts to the attention of non-friends? If the only answer is "create good content", then that has to be a good thing!

I am just waiting for someone to come out with a StumbleUpon Anonymous social networking site for those of us that can't seem to go a day without stumbling. I actually find myself using Stumble Upon as a bookmarking tool the more involved I get. It is one of the best ways to see what my favorites are reading as well as writing so in terms of "fake" traffic, it's not all fake. It is addictive.

The issue isn't the same as with performance enhancing drugs because they are used against the rules to create unfair advantages in competition. There are no rules in online promotion. It's not like someone's out there saying "No fair, that traffic isn't real, like mine!" Also, the traffic is real. The point of blogging and participating in the online community is to get viewers. The problem I would think arises when one can't convert the new traffic into loyal readers or whatever the main goal of the blog has, if one becomes too focussed on getting traffic that the content suffers. Then it does become create long-term damage in exchange for short-term perceived benefit. Did that make sense at all? Peace.
