The Pros and Cons About Paid StumbleUpon Ad Campaigns

Alfonso Coley
Don't believe the hype about StumbleUpon ad campaigns presumed to boost your page views, and promote your articles. Many website owners and people that own Domain Blogs would be better off promoting their work through the Google book marking system, or just tweaking your Domain Blog with interesting and engaging subject matter.

Reason #1: Reputation Blockers: Have you ever wondered why the next guy gets ahead in page views and your site or articles move like a bed of turtles stuck in the sand? There may be much more to the game of a StumbleUpon Ad Campaign than this site leads one to believe. In reality, you may feel giddy with excitement by paying for a StumbleUpon Ad Campaign, only later to become very disappointed to find that there are haters on the StumbleUpon network that can do you more harm than good. Little do most people know, StumbleUpon has no policy to protect an Ad Campaigner from those stumblers who are well connected in the community. Many of these veteran stumblers are not that friendly pertaining to helping a fellow new writer or Bloggers vying for recognition in the community. Scores of these folks support and thumb up who they like, which plays favorite to those stumblers who achieve page view heaven.

Reason #2: Jealous Cyber Space Haters: For any Bloggers or writers who place their work on the World Wide Web, it may be discomforting to know that everyone is not your friend. As a mater of fact the same goes for many people involved in the StumbleUpon community. If you have a moderate or large number of stumblers giving you thumbs down on any one of your articles, it will affect your overall ranking in the StumbleUpon community, which in turn gives you a bad reputation, and hurts your ad campaign.

Reason #3: Negative vs. Positive Results: If you are not familiar with how a StumbleUpon Ad Campaign works for writers and Bloggers, then refer to the above two statements that will save you a lot of misery. Just before the close of 2010 I cancelled my StumbleUpon profile, and cancelled my StumbleUpon Ad Campaign in less than two weeks of being affiliated with the program. I once believed in my naïve perception that all content is set apart by what it has to offer to its readers, and I once believed that spammers that try to ruin your reputation and steal your content was something that happened to only a few people. As I began to understand how the net works and how StumbleUpon Ad Campaigns can do more harm than good for the honest and hardworking writers. I began to open my eyes to learn that there are many factors that may place your rankings way below other websites, your content, and Domain Blogs.

Favoritism and cyber space haters do exist on the World Wide Web, and it can be detrimental in ones effort to make a living, and lead a productive writing life. From my personal experience, I would not recommend the StumbleUpon Ad Campaign to any writer or Bloggers whom are looking to increase their monthly page views, or readership.

I would highly recommend do your research before you partake in a StumbleUpon Ad Campaign, because you do not want to get spammed for doing something you love.

It seems as though the majority of articles relating to negative reactions to StumbleUpon Ad Campaigns are almost now nonexistent in Google search, and page ranking. This article is from my personal experience with the StumbleUpon Ad Campaign program, and in now way will I advise or counsel anyone not to join, due to the fact that each person's experience will differ how they will be accepted in the community.
