StumbleUpon is a free social bookmarking site that allows users to “stumble” websites they want to share with and recommend to others.

Here’s a video overview of how it works:

StumbleUpon is a great way to share sites you like and generate traffic once you get started.  It’s also a fun way to find (or stumble upon!) web pages about topics you’re interested in that you might not find otherwise.

If you’re interested but not sure how to get started, here’s a quick, basic guide to help you get started on StumbleUpon?  Check out this free report from Sue Painter, The Confident Marketer:

You’ll also get a subscription to her newsletter when you request the free report, but don’t worry – you can always unsubscribe (but I bet you’ll stay subscribed, she shares good info!).

I recommend installing the Firefox StumbleUpon toolbar to make it easier to remember to Stumble websites while you’re surfing.  You can get it here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/138/
