Who Stumbles ChrisBlogging?
Since starting this blog, I have become well aware that StumbleUpon is a great service. After all, there are certain days when a post of mine gets Stumbled, which results in my traffic doubling at the very least. The question I have is: how do I know who is stumbling my content?
From checking out my stats it is easy to see what post has been stumbled, and how much traffic it has sent me. But more importantly, is there anyway for me to determine who did the stumbling? The reason I ask is that I would really like to return the favor if at all possible. I would hate to think that somebody has thought enough to recommend my posts time after time, but I do not even take the time to read their blog.
So, I ask: is there anyway for me to determine who is stumbling my posts? If there is no way of doing this, leave a comment or send an email letting me know who you are!

I’m curious to know this, too, Chris. I know a lot of bloggers have great success with StumbleUpon, but I haven’t mastered it yet.

If you have the StumbleUpon toolbar, you can navigate to a page, click on the little speech bubble icon and it will take you to a SU page that says that your page is there. Click on the reviews link to see who has reviewed your page and you will also be able to see other people who have liked it. I guess you could also get the same result by typing the URL and searching on the SU site, though I haven’t tried that.

SHH is right. I assume you also need to be a StumbleUpon member, but I don’t know that for certain as I got the toolbar when I signed up. I don’t know whether or not you can get the toolbar without being a member.
Before that, I also had no idea how to find who stumbled my posts. One or two I knew because the stumbler told me, but on the rest I had no way of knowing.

Thanks guys and gals! I always wondered about this, and now I have a better idea of what is going on with StumbleUpon. I cant say enough for how well this service works!
