This post is for those who are out to hate on all the SEO and internet marketers. Fellow Stumblers, THIS IS REAL SPAMMING!!! You will never find a legit SEO or internet marketer spamming the system in this way. These are the real people you should hate, and boycott. These are the people that you should be directing all your hate mail and spammy comments. I am an internet marketer, and this is shameful and gives all of us a bad reputation. Please do not ever associate this type of crap, with someone who has only legitimate intentions, such as myself, on the StumbleUpon website.
This is not SEO…
This is not MARKETING…
This is how you really abuse the system =(
