Good info here! I am trying to figure out how to get more attention to my niche blog and I have been looking into social networks.

Stumble traffic is a huge burst of traffic. I have had several posts of mine stumbled upon. I just don’t feel right stumbling my own posts.

If you have a good article, stumble it! People will come and your stat will be off the roof! It is amazing. Nhuong Son's last blog post..2000 Ec Contest [Revised]

This looks great. I have been using the Share plugin, but I like the more visual nature of this one.

Unfortunately, I am finding that many of the social networking spikes are short-lived, and often do not translate to more comments, participation, ad clicks or RSS subscribers. They seem to come, and then bounce right out.

Thanks for the heads up on this plugin.

Ben,
Looks like a great plugin. I often wonder though about stumbleupon traffic. You get this huge spike but do people stay long on one’s site?

How do you compare these social networking links with the one I have : the bookmark one which does the same thing?

I think everyone should ditch the ShareThis plugin, if they're using it. It's too much of a bloat and contacting the sharethis.com site is a bottleneck for page rendering. Rudy's last blog post..How to Become a Better Blogger

Well Joost, I wouldn’t want to make you feel old. Again Great work, I am also trying Rank Tracker, and so far I am liking it very much. Now if I only knew more about SEO.

I totally agree! Entrecard is another traffic booster and so does piqq.us Bendz's last blog post..Dropping
