I have no idea whether tweaking helps or not - but every time I discover some new tip about Hubbing, I go back and apply it to my Hubs. Some of the "tweaks" I've done include:
1. Making sure every one of my Hubs has at least one photo and one Youtube clip.
2. Moving my first photo down so there's enough space for an ad in the top right hand corner of all my Hubs.
3. Including links to my other related Hubs in the body of the text.
4. Changing all my Amazon capsules to specific products (with a description) instead of keywords
5. Adding a News capsule to keep the content fresh.
6. (Still working on this one) Adding a links capsule with 10 links out to related external sites.
improving titles help
keywords

I just read this Hub - worth reading and learning from, Karpouzian!
If you get this one figured out, I'll have to check back and see how you did it. So far, a couple of my oldest Hubs still earn the most pennies...the ones I've tweaked haven't done squat...and some of the newer ones are getting good traffic but zero clicks.
It's a conspiracy, I tells ya!
Either that, or I maybe should take a class on How To Write....
I always tweak my hubs that are getting little reads with Title changes, extra pics or videos or text and always get extra reads !
Maybe doing keyword research using Googles keyword tool. You may find that a keyword that was doing great when you wrote the hub needs to be tweaked to make it more profitable. For instance maybe "Patio Umbrellas" was huge last year but "Outdoor Umbrella" is the top earner this year. Just a couple of wording changes may make a difference.

An ongoing topic I've seen over the years I've been on Hubpages is "How do I make my low traffic hubs better."I saw it again today in a Hub Pro thread (if you haven't already, should definitely opt in - it was a fantastic experience.)My best advice to anyone who is writing online is:If it...

Greetings fellow hubbers! My hub about chronic pain used to have a nice score in the 80's and since tweaking it a few weeks ago, the score is stuck in the 70's. I think it was over-tweaked and now I'm at a loss as to how to fix it. Please, I humbly ask for your opinions to give it the "Extreme...

I keep on getting hubs idled despite tweaking them, changing titles and adding better keywords. I have got used to moving them to other sites such as Wizzley, Xobba and InfoBarrel but it seems to be an ongoing problem. If I keep on moving my idled hubs eventually I will hardly have any left!

I never thought I would ask that but having just looked at the large number of hubs now classified as Idle in my account why should I write any more, and what am I do with all of those already here? A lot of them are good quality writings I know because they had previously been published in hard...

I just modified the two recipe hubs I had to include the new recipe capsules, hoping they would look like all the other recipes that pop up in results, and maybe I have to wait a little bit of time, but...It only seems to show your picture in the search results if you have the image right at the...

Do you go back and update your hubs frequently (e.g you just published a new related hub so you go back and update the others)?Do you do this incessantly?Or do you just "fire and forget" and move to the next hub?Just wondering...
