StumbleUpon is pretty effective. For my meobi blog, i actually submit to stumble upon and it can bring about 30-40+ visitors everyday... now still testing it (3rd day a after submitting the link)

No need, just register an account, then login, go to "submit new" tab install the stumble upon tool bar (u gonna use this pretty often), go to your post, press the "thumbs up" button, if this link is not yet submited to StumbleUpon (SU) it will ask u to type ur post link, title, add description and submit.

but then, i have no idea how other ppl able to see the submitted link on stumble upon website. i tried to search and play around for hours and i couldn't see my own link lol.

ops, wrong info, i changed the instruction (might not be the best way but thats how i do it) in the previous post.

SU ur own blog? if u installed the tool bar...

1. log in SU
2. press the "thumbs up" button (u only can do it once) and it will be stumbled
3. repeat step 2 for home page and every individual post page u have.
4. check ur traffic after that

btw, SU is very focus on US users, so i dont know if this can increase ur sales / NN earnings or not. It depends on ur niche and ur target viewer

how they know it is our own blog? check the "website" link and the link we stumble?

i would suggest go for certain combination of keywords.

i use my blog as example, if i search my blog with "anime mobile wallpaper", the site will end up in 8th page in google ranking (yea this is pretty bad). But if u use combination of common keywords + specific keywords it will easily bring u up to the top. my blog will be listed 3rd in google if i search with "moyashimon mobile wallpaper" or 7th position with "moyashimon wallpaper". (FYI moyashimon is an anime title).

instead of compete with thousands of wallpaper site out there, i rather go for "anime title"+"mobile"+"wallpaper" combination. it provides more possibility for user that looking for specific info, rather than just stuck with "anime wallpaper". I would like to know more about SEO if more guru willing to share the tips (i'm very new in blogging field).

It is more like to use the keyword in few position on ur website:

1. page title / website title
2. web url
3. <h1> header
4. first paragraph of you body content
5. for blog, add more tag with keywords.

this is the basic idea. i find this article is quite useful, u can have a look here

As i know using small part of video / scene for review is ok as long as it doesn't cause any damage to the copyright owner. else most of the fans need to be jailed.

yes. it is because when user search for info, they dont search multiple niche in the same time. usually they will focus on 1 thing, like car, in order for the user to be happy and come back for more car info, the site is better to be specialize in the thing. other content means nothing but crap to the visitor
