What about the idea of adding a translation widget?
Although hugpages is only English language, I see there is some traffic from non-English speaking countries. A translation widget would help to attract more international traffic, despite the fact, as the saying goes, that much may get lost in the translation.
Do you think this is a viable option?
Yeah Im curious too - Ive never seen significant traffic from non-English speaking countries. There are heaps of translation engines on the internet -you just cut and paste in the results are generally dreadful
That is why I asked. I get a little traffic from France when I have written about a restaurant in France that no one else has done - I just added a French translation to the page.
And dribs and drabs from other places so I wondered where this foreign traffic was from.
You are right, it is just dribs and drabs. I think a got a few visitors from Brazil and Italy.
But I was just thinking whether it would be useful as a way to generate more interest.
The translation engines' output is not satisfactory - or at least I haven't seen one that does a decent job. But the reader using it will expect that.

My HP traffic down since last three to four days and it's a matter of great concern for me. I have already written 50 hubs for the contest but still I am not seeing the traffic that I was seeing post google algorithm change. Is there anyone else who is facing the same problems. I have started...

I have kept quiet about this for a while now, but after the Panda update I saw my traffic drop a little then normalize (as expected after any Google update).However since I made the changes required by Hubpages (and I assume changes enforced upon everybody else) I have seen steadily declining...

Hello,It is my humble suggestion if "Payoneer" is also included as a payment method. It will attract a large number of writers from those countries where PayPal is not functional. It is one of the hurdles that we face here on HubPages. Kindest regards,Huma Gul

I created my hub one weak back. But still it is under verification. No Adsense ads are appearing on my hub. Can any body suggest me why?

Huge quantity of widgets are available in the web that can support our hubs. Can any one suggest how can we add some widgets to our hubs. If hubpages do not support widgets from out side, I request the hubpages administrator to add widget capsule too. Jyoti Kothari
