    I have seen a 50% drop in my traffic, the lowest it has been in months. I was wondering if anyone else was seeing the same results. Thanks.

      I havent had that problem as I am just back after a long disgusting divorce and getting my new life in order .... but  I remember from when I was writing on hubpages last year or so that sometimes the time of year ... day.... etc effects traffic

      Many of my other blogger friends on FB have reported fall in traffic since yesterday. Looks like another Panda rampage.

      My overall traffic has been dropping for a couple of weeks. One hub is doing well and carrying the load for all that have been dropping. It, standing alone, out of 60 hubs, equals 50 percent of my views. Without that one, well, I would be back to pork and beans, cold, as I could not afford to heat them! smile

    I believe the last few runs of Panda have been on the 22nd of each month, so hold on to your hats, this might mean another one is due this weekend or shortly after.

    Mine is sucking along. On some days it doesn't suck as bad as it does on the days it does suck.  But it still sucks compared to last August when it wasn't sucking as bad as it sucks now.  tongue

    I'm seeing a large drop in traffic. Some 60% decrease in traffic. Very discouraging ...

    Yep. I'm seeing a pretty healthy drop in traffic that started about two days ago.

    I saw a big drop in my traffic yesterday as well - 50% from the day before. Today is not any better.  I am hoping it is the nice weather - maybe everyone is spring cleaning or getting ready for a game.  Maybe there is a big holiday that I didn't know about. Hopefully it will spring back up to normal and even higher levels soon.

    Yup, same here. Nice to know that it isn't just me though. Still, discouraging.

    Okay, I give, what is the Panda thing Hub writers keep mentioning?  I'm guessing it  has something to do with Google?

      Spot on. Just Google 'Google Panda'. It was the name of a major Google algorithm change.

        And Panda is from the last name of an Indian "Pandu" who was a big factor behind the first Panda update smile

    Yes, big drop in traffic.  I'm sorry it's happening to others here, too, but comforted that I'm not experiencing it all alone.

    Last Wednesday or thereabouts I was darn near a happy camper. Today, however, my stats are bouncing around just above a new yearly low. Tough town the internet.

    Mine has settled out now, but still about 30% down. That is better then %55 though.

    From 130 a day a day or two ago, to 3 in the last 24 hours.  All my hubs seem to be out of Google as well (or at least out of the top 200 for keywords they were targeting).

    Just when I thought I was starting to get the hang of hubpages!
