Hey Randy, your post made me think of something you didn’t even mention…

When I clicked this link over from Sphinn (or somewhere like that) I recognized your picture as “that guy from DigiPoint that gives no-nonsense advice.”

So yeah, its definitely got me thinking more about personal branding and building trust! I’m not sure if those signature links do much either, but there’s still a place for forums (and I’m hoping someday vB will have some user-specific RSS feeds so the forum thing can go live with the aggregators and lifestreams of the net)

Nice tips.

Why haven’t you included Digg/StumbleUpon. Those websites can give you huge hits of traffic and some do convert.

Stumbleupon is a good source of traffic – but it’s usually short-lived (like an hour or two). IF you can make it to the front page of Digg it can send you traffic for years.. i still get several hundred visitors/day from a page that was on the front page of Digg 2 years ago.. But making it to the front page of Digg is NOT an easy thing to do.

In my experience though, Digg and stumble traffic do NOT convert very well, if at all..
