Each one succeeded beyond the clicks I paid for, but I have found that my network of friends can provide even better support than the paid clicks.

However, there's a lot more that could be added to this discussion. We've been using SU to drive traffic to our clients' websites with great results (no advertising.) True, a lot of this has to do with the initial Stumbler's weight within the SU community. However, I'm of the belief that finding the right tags/topics will create a natural stumble effect. For example, we have a client that has a simple online tool/application geared towards the construction/DIY crowd. Similar (or better) tools can be found on hundreds of other websites. However, by targeting this crowd with specific tags/topics we were able to generate 6000+ visitors over 30+ days. Additionally, this has been high quality traffic (conversions, time on site, bounce rates, etc.) See: http://www.dynamicsus.com/Stumble_Traffic.gif Good analysis.
