    Hi there,

    I had submitted my site to stumble and digg and was getting a few hits from them, loads from stumble though.

    And then i found out the more diggs and stumbles the more hits you will get, so i googled it to get some free ones and i came across this site.]

    http://piqqus.com/

    It is really good! You basically exchange diggs and stumbles. It is also all auto mated :)

    Finally the good thing about it is that becuase the validation for stumbleupon takes about 20 mins, instead of getting the three you payed for you could get like 7 or 8!

    Great site, highly recommend it.

    Stumble isn't targeted enough for me. They may be interested in that topic but they aren't researching it at the moment therefore they aren't in the mindset to buy.

    stumble was never considered as a helpful tool for boosting sales, was it?:confused: I'll tell you more: it's useless for ecommerce sites. But why "thumbs down"? It's working for some sites and blogs..

    You think Piqq is new? Here's a protip - it used to be called diggboss.

    Don't waste your time. Digg bans your site if you use it and the stumbles aren't worth anything because they aren't "organic" (found using the "Stumble!" button).

    Spammy site will be banned even without using Piqqus.

    Let's say you have a quality site, and your competitor submits your quality site to Digg and promote it using Piqqus. Do you think your quality site will be banned because of this? There is nothing you can do to prevent someone else from submitting your website. In the end, it is the content that matters, not whether you use Piqqus or not.

    Also, Piqqus inserts random URLs in their URL list every once and then, so members will never know which URLs are member-submitted or randomly-selected.

    Regarding the stumbles:
    Are you saying that if a website was not found using the "Stumble!" button on the SU toolbar, the thumbs given to that website are not "organic"? Think again, this is clearly a flawed logic...

    Hey thanks for the traffic tip, Anytime something new seems to work it is worth a try no matter how long it lasts as long as it is acceptable to search engines, Squidoo was worthless a while back too. Thanks Again

    IMO
    Stumble traffic is useless coz the visitor will not convert to returning visitor
    So its not worth for the time

    Unfortunately there's nothing you can do to prevent someone else from submitting YOUR website using Piqqus. Will your website be banned then? Because someone else submitted your website using Piqqus? In the end your website will be judged by its content.

    If you're saying that sites never barred from a service because somone other than the site's webmaster is spamming it, that's clearly not true.
    For example, I believe I'm right in thinking that digitalpoint is barred from stumbleupon - but it's not because Shawn's been spamming it,now is it.

    magda: I never said that. Please re-read.

    If you find anything I said is not true, please quote the exact sentence(s)...
