What are some reasonable goals of for new hubbers?
I have only been on HubPages for a couple weeks and active of only the later part getting my account setup and learning the system. As a new member what to the veterns recommend for goals or targets? I am thinking about X hubs in X days, X% traffic growth in X weeks, reach 1000 page views in Y months, reach 10000 page views by Z, etc.
I know things like traffic growth takes time and content but starting with a reasonable goal in mind is more likely to keep me focused so I'm trying to understand what is reasonable.
Thanks!
I not a veteran by any means having only been writing for 9 months on HP's but the goals I set for myself were 10,000 page views by my 50th hub article. To have 100 hub articles by the end of a year and to make sure all of my Hubs were over 100 PV's.
I'm currently sitting at 87 Hub articles, I reached 10,000 PV's on my 53rd Hub article however I'm now over 24,000 page views. Of those 87 only nine are below 100 PV's.
Of the nine stinker's all but one are over 85 PV's and six are over 95 so they will get there soon. Learn about RSS feeds, follow advice and READ the Help pages, use back links on all hubs.
Try to write a master piece every time but settle for progress and try to have some fun, stay positive!
It has been an awesome experience for me!
I'd like to add that often times I take my writing far too seriously and probable myself too, after all it is only one persons opinion and in the big scheme of things means very little.
Try to do the 30 hubs/30 days challenge. It is a great way to get yourself started. Especially if you write 3-4 hubs around a topic because then you can link them together increasing your rank with google and your page views. (I never really paid much attention to the other stuff. I just try to write hubs about things I enjoy and see what happens.)

I finally wrote 200 hubs and I've surpassed 100,000 page views. My 200th hub linked together many of my hubs pertaining to small businesses. It's gratifying to know I finally reached another milestone. Thanks to the many of you Hubbers who have served as inspiration during my time here.

I just wanted to have a tiny celebration at having hit my first milestone, 1,000 page views...It took around 15 hubs, 8 days and a fair bit of promotion to get there, but I'm really pleased.I mainly shared on Google+ and Twitter and also answered questions on the forums here, HupHopped and...

You have 1k likes on Facebook. I think that did it.

I am very excited to claim this many page views! I have been on HP for over a year, and to many, this # may seem somewhat pitiful, but it's hard work to become known on any writing site, and I am thrilled that my words have been viewed over 7,000 times!I really love this site.

How long did it take you to get to 100,000 page views?I enjoyed the answers to my question about how long it took people to get to 10,000 page views I thought I'd take it a step further. How long were you on HubPages and how many hub did you have when you reached 100K?

Just completed my 30 hubs in 26 days days, but still slightly short of my target of 1,000 page views in 30 days (currently at 901).Going to go back through by early hubs and tidy up and add links before moving on to add more hubs - next target 50 hubs by the 1st Feb.David
