I am soo happy, I have reached 500,000 views. I am aiming for 1 million before the end of the year. How many views do you have and what are your expectations? Tips on how to drive more traffic and increase the $$$$$ are also welcome.
Congratulations. With 500,000 views, how much have you cashed out, Patkay?
At least nowadays I get payout every month. I relly on HP Ad Program. I have not cashed out that much but is something above 500 $.
How long does it take to make your first payment and how much you earn monthly?
It took me around 7 months to reach my first payout. My earnings vary between $ 50 - 70. But there is a time I had a good month with a cool $100.
Hello Patkay and congratulations on hitting the half million views mark. I still believe there ought to be a milestone marker between 100,000 and 1,000,000 views. Some people don't care but I do! And it is a long long wait in between.
Glad to hear you're making money. My views are slowly inching upward from the 100,000 mark. It is around 133,000 at this point and I'm noticing that most views are coming from Google, Ask and Bing now rather than internally. YEA!
Yes, I'm getting a small payout from the HP ad program. Still waiting on the Google Adsense since I have yet to reach the $100 mark. (I'm at $97 now so maybe a couple of more years. LOL)
PegCole17, a couple of years before you catch up with the 3 dollars to make a payout ... I wish google adsense was much better than this. I am glad that HP came up with their HP ads otherwise I would still be waiting for my first payout.
I can see you are also doing great and I agree with you that we need an accolade in between problably at 500,000. Thanks for your visit.
Congratulations, Paykay!
Isn't it wonderful when you finally reach that tipping point and begin to see significant traffic?? I'm so happy for you.
Sure Simone Smith, it is a wonderful thing. I recall when I started writing at HP I was wondering if anyone would bother reading my articles. HP has taught me a lot, I enjoy being here, thanks to the HP team and everyone else who have made it happen.
Good to know, congrats for this achievement. I am new but I want to earn money through my hubs, I've just about 200 views and no money
Sana Ratio, keep on writing, money will start coming once your daily traffic increases. Thanks for your time.
Thank you Patkay,
But, have you seen my hub profile score, it's only 8 now. I don't know how to increase this score buy I'm trying my best.
Hey way to go, how about recomending Clickbank products or a webpage in where you are recomending a Clickbank, CJ or Amazon product?!
Hi thanks troy0619, I have not used both clickbank and amazon products, not that I do not like them but because I do not know how to go about it.
Oh my God you could be right now making thousands of dollars with that sort of high volume visits. Just do what I do. Here are my steps. Let me know if you need any help. http://troy0619.hubpages.com/hub/Clickb … aking-tips
You can't use Clickbank on HP, they banned it ages ago.
No but you can still add a link to a webpage in where you are selling or recomending a clickbank product
True although it is important to be careful because according to the FAQ's section, hubs written purely as a teaser to get a reader to go to another site are against the rules
Well done Patkay. That is a great achievement. I think 500,000 deserves an accolade.
Awesome! Congratulations in reaching 500,000 views, Patkay. I'm happy for you. Here's to more traffic your way... Cheers!
Congratulations Patkay, you have resurrected my hope in the possibility of getting some extra income from Hub Pages. Nice of you to share such inspiring information:)
Congratulations, Patkay on your great progress. That is wonderful. I'm approaching 8,800 views after about five months on hp. My goal is to reach 10,000 in a couple months and see first payout in May. Keep up the excellent work, very cool
Well done PatKay, milestones like this do make writing so much more enjoyable
Congratulations Patkay. Allow me to put you on my list of Role Models. My hopes have received a 'shot in the arm' and my vision now sees light at the end of the tunnel. Keep it up (and especially your knack for inspiring).

I finally hit 250,000 views today. It took a long time coming but here is to the next 250,000.

I'm in my 12th year with HubPages and just reached a significant milestone. Today my stats report went over the 3,000,000 mark and I'm doing my happy dance.

On Easter Sunday I finally hit the million views checkpoint. Took a long time to get there, but it was nice reading the email HP sends you on reaching this accolade. This is a good time to thank the staff at HP, no one ever says it enough - they are doing and have always been doing a great job here.

In the bigger scheme of things, 250,000 page views is not so huge. But I just couldn't resist being able to say "million" when talking about my stats!
by Rahul Pandey 8 years ago
Last few months have been pretty amazing for me. I just hope things pick up a little bit more. Judging by traffic performance of my hubs, I should hit 1 million views by the end of this year. Fingers crossed! How have things been going for you guys?
by Kylyssa Shay 9 years ago
It's taken a long time, but the views have slowly, but steadily, added up and I crossed the half-million mark at the end of last month.Anyway, I passed this milestone unaware of it. I mostly look at the daily and weekly views and try to analyze where views right now are coming from and try to...
