Traffic from Hubpages

Hubpages will give you about 50% of your traffic to your hubs. The other 50%, well you need to come up with that on your own. Hubpages will list your Article on Google 2 days after it was published. From there, it is your job to make it reach the top of googles pagerank. Depending on how much time you put into marketing your hubpages will result in your traffic. I have some tips and tricks to help bring you in as many readers as possible.


Search Engine Optimization/Keywords

This is probably the most important way when getting traffic to your hubpage. This is the best way to get traffic from search engines. There are people who do SEO marketing for a living. But this is something you can do on your own. Spend some time using keywords to target search engines. Make as many meta tags as possible. Once you have meta tags, make sure you use those tags in your content plenty of times and in your summary. This will attract search engine's to your article and give you a higher rank with them.


Article Directory

There are many ways to promote your articles on the internet, but the easiest and least time consuming way is to submit your articles to directories. This will let people find your article link and bring in a substantial amount of readers. Here are some popular free article directories to submit to.
