Here are my 459454 questions. I'm a hubpages noob.
Why am I getting next to no traffic?
Is it because I have only been on the site for three days?
And is my profile score of 67 good for three days?
My articles are for pretty much everyone on earth
I just published one about optimizing computer performance and that targets anybody on the internet...
Why do I only have 50 views on my 8 hubs?
And why do their scores seem to rise and fall in a seemingly random manner?
Why is my score going up? Who decided it would go up all of a sudden?
How do I actually generate income from all of this? I love writing but I also love getting paid for it!
Thanks to anyone who gives me any kind of information I can use!
T I M E !
It takes time. It can take four to eight months to work up enough presence to generate an income. Feel blessed you have fifty views. Get accepted with Kontera and Amazon. That would be a good start.
Good luck! Welcome to HubPages

You have just started, it takes time and work to gain more traffic, also, the subjects you are writing about are very competitive, so you have to build better websites than more competition.
And why do their scores seem to rise and fall in a seemingly random manner?
Hub scores are based on a lot of different factors, don't worry about them too much.
Why is my score going up? Who decided it would go up all of a sudden? votes, traffic, content, and more, from what I understand!
How do I actually generate income from all of this? I love writing but I also love getting paid for it!
Sign up with the advertiser programs, Google Adsense, Amazon, eBay, and Kontera, you will earn through these.

If four months is the standard, I'm going for a month before I get decent traffic. bump
Patience, patience, patience, patience
And just keep writing good quality, original content
Traffic will come in time

HI. I sorta like HP. I find some of what the rest of the people here have to say interesting. But let's be honest. I'm hear for the backlinks. I am writing hubs as part of my SEO. Problem is I can't get my score over 66 much less up to the 75 mark and I'm getting tired of it. I hop hubs every day,...

Aside from sharing my article links on Facebook, what are some tried and true ways of increasing traffic/reads to our articles? I'm new; 3 weeks in, have 10 published and featured articles so far. I'm trying to figure out what the number on my profile photo means exactly. I know...

I'm finding it difficult to reach 100 hayz, my highest so far was 99 few weeks ago, and last week 98, now I'm stuck with 94-96. When I posts hubs sprinkled with research my author score gets hurt and wounded but we need traffic to boost our stock right, and research is the best way to accomplish...

My traffic is way down this year, and even worse than two years ago. I'm feeling a little uneasy about the whole Maven takeover thing and am wondering if I should even bother putting my time and effort into writing more articles. Gut instinct tells me HP days are numbered. I really hope I'm wrong.

So other than the fact that Google has apparently decided I am a crappy writer and my traffic is down from 17k a day to maybe 1600... with a similar decline in income... Do we yet know why this happened? Feeling a little bitter. Have had to take on enough clients that I rarely have time to...

Hi,I have noticed that my analytics if showing good traffic to my hubs, but my adsense is not showing any clicks to my hubs ever since I started. I do not understand how I can have a decent amount of traffic and yet no clicks. Could I have adsense set up wrong with hubpages? ...
