		<description>You might have been better off buying stumbles at that rate, and setting up cpm ads so that you get money regardless of if they click anything.</description>

		<description>The same thing happened to me. I'm not sure how they calculate that you pay for a certain amount of visitors yet deliver less than promised.

You should email this post to Stumble and let them know what people are saying about their Stumble paid advertising experience.

Stumble is better for promoting than it is for sales for sure.</description>

		<description>Hey Collin,

I used Stumbleupon.com for my past work, http://bedzine.com and received the same results.  Zero sales for $500 of advertising.  But you can't blame it on StumbleUpon.  They simply don't have the "concentrated" audience you need for your product.  

I have, however, created a new site called http://sitehoppin.com that you can promote your new sites.

Basically it's a del.ici.ous and Stumbleupon.com mashed up together, it's still in works but you can use it while we develop the technology.  We are trying to aim for Web 2.5 where you combine the best technologies and make something new.</description>

		<description>I had pretty similar results that &lt;a href="http://www.iamjacksdesign.com/blog/my-experience-with-stumbleupon-advertising/" rel="nofollow"&gt;I wrote about on my site&lt;/a&gt;. I don't think I, or you for that matter, were scammed though. I think it just further proves that StumbleUpon traffic isn't all that great whether or not you pay for it.</description>
