BlogSpot Country Domains Blocked By StumbleUpon

We've seen a few recent reports, in Blogger Help Forum: Get Help with an Issue, about problems getting StumbleUpon to accept Blogger blogs.
Every time I try to put a blog into StumbleUpon, it replies that it does not accept Blogger site submissions.
And the URL, when stated, will be a non "BlogSpot.com" country code alias.

StumbleUpon Support has provided an official response, shedding some light.

In StumbleUpon Help: Blogspot.com.[country] submissions - Unable to add, we see an Official Response.
We have, at this time, excluded content from the various blogspot.xxx country domains from being added to StumbleUpon.
If you're trying to add your blog to StumbleUpon, and you're seeing
We don't accept submissions from this site.
Just provide the "blogspot.com" URL alias for your non custom domain published blog, when submitting to StumbleUpon. That is where the Blogger traffic goes, any way. If your blog is published to a custom domain, you'll see no problem.

StumbleUpon is simply one more Internet service that does not support the Canonical tag, as used by Blogger in their BlogSpot country code aliased URLs.

Add A Custom Redirect, If You Change A Post URL

When you rename a blog, the most that you can do, to keep the old URL useful, is to setup a stub post , with a clickable link to the new URL. Yo! The blog is now at xxxxxxx.blogspot.com!! Blogger forbids gateway blogs, and similar blog to blog redirections . When you rename a post, you can setup a custom redirect - and automatically redirect your readers to the post, under its new URL. You should take advantage of this option, if you change a post URL.

Jump Break Is Visible Only In An Index Page

Some blog owners are unsure what a Jump Break looks like, when applied to their blogs. Occasionally, in Blogger Help Forum: Get Help with an Issue , we see the confusion. Where's the Jump Break? or I added a Jump Break to several posts, but it never shows up! When asked for a screen print of what they're seeing, they may provide a image of the post, in the Post Editor Preview window - or possibly, the published post, but in post page view.
