Dear fans and readers,

Did you notice? Stumbleupon is gone, and no they did not take over your account and so you will have to start from scratch. Kind of rediculous to handle and treat your customers like this.

Stumbleupon was a place to share your content, like many other places. Now as it is gone I ask myself if I even should take the time to join this new company if I need to start from scratch...

As I launched last Friday, I am having my hands full now to fix many little issues and pubilish an article every day, so I was not much here in Wealthy Affiliiate for you my fans and friends. I will see how I can make up some time.

Who of you has experience with this new platform Mix? Can you recommend it?

I did have the account with Stumbleupon. No experience with The Mix so far.

Yup, but if you go there now, it will tell you it does not exist anymore and the new one is Mix....

I never used stumbled upon but I’m going to check out mix.
Thanks!

Yes, Mia, that is the way, I will check it out and compare and see if it can help in bringing more traffic. :))

Hi, Stefan. I've never heard of it, so therefore, won't miss it!

If it grows like Twitter and brings traffic, would you not want to join in time?

Probably if I was farther along in my training. Have had so much time and energy tied up in the preparation and sale of my house and packing to move I haven't progressed very far. And I'm a social mediaphobe besides. I know I'll need to get over that, and I'm working on it, but certainly haven't arrived at a comfort level yet!

Yeah I got you, since I am launched I even have more on my plate and more responsibility to keep the website in order to build it out.

You will get there, first take care of your private things, so you will your head clear of that and can better concentrate on your business.

Stefan

You're right, Stefan. Thanks.

:))

Hey Stefan,
Thanks for this information. I never used this platform anyway so I guess I won't be missing it to much.

Tried and True

Elaine

Well that is the question here, if it can bring value to our business Elaine. :))

I did not actually use stumble upon because I was too busy working with the bigger social media platforms so it was only last about 2 weeks ago I went looking for the smaller things which led me to stumble upon and the news it was moving to mix.com.

I have started adding and interacting and all I know so far is I am having good interaction with my posts...its way to soon to know anything else.

I personally like mix though and outside the couple articles, I am posting a day from existing content the interaction does not require me to do much else that I wouldn't do already.

I like looking around the internet and reading interesting things so I simply added mix to my evening "poke around the internet in the evening routine and am having fun with it so I a content to give it time to see if it becomes worth it.

Thank you for sharing Christina,

Well I started first to build out my social platforms with many followers and since I am launched now, I have to decide if Mix can be a part of the social network I already have.

It takes time to manage and share your posts on social media, crucial, because in those last few days, 95% of traffic comes in through social media.

It will take some time before the posts will attract readers through the search engines.

I will give it a try this week.

Stefan, ToLiNoLi :))

That's a newsflash.... thanks kindly for posting / sharing ... :)

Yes, that is what I do, for you my dear fans and readers. :))

Interesting about stumbled upon!

Yeah, you did not accidentally stumble upon my post, didn't you? :P

Yours is one of the good posts i mine for Stefan!

I can say the same about you, but you write so many that I can't possible read them all. Add some more fun to it and you will get my attention lol :P

Careful what you wish for. If I stop the presses I may not be able to start them again.

Keep them coming Mike, don't stop the press. :))

Wow! Thanks for the news Stefan.
I missed that. That's a shame. You used to get good strong backlinks from Stumbleupon.

I will have to see what Mix is all about

Yeah, I hear you. Let me know what you thinkg.

No experience here, sorry. Good luck.

Thanks, for you too. :))

I have published some 3 articles there and still trying things out. Don't really master it yet, but I hope by the time I'm done with a minimum of 7, using it will be easier.

Sounds difficult, how would you compare it to other platforms?

Wow your question motivated me to go back to that platform to figure out some things.

Seriously it looks promising and easier to use than the original Stumbleupon. I've created some new collections and even deleted the old ones because I didn't know what I was doing at first. It was very easy to do so.

But the only problem I have for now is how to upload photos for my posts. Perhaps there's yet another button that I have to discover, will let you know when I find it.

I kinda like the place. It's very easy to use.

Cool, thanks, appreciate you are sharing this, now I am interested too. :))
