Getting a little frustrated since I have very few clicks in Google and none in Amazon.
BUT... I am starting to see Google and Yahoo! as traffic sources, though very light.
At this stage of the game, what sort of advice do you more experienced hubbers have? Should I expect it to come in time??
Thanks!!

Hi Composed ... welcome to HP! use the search bar and read up on some Hubs about generating traffic, etc. It takes time and work but it's fun in the mean time.
You have only been here for two weeks. Search Engines have barely found you and any backlinks, if you've been working on them probably haven't been acknowledged yet by the SE's yet.
Go to the search bar here and enter in Hubpages. Read every How-To hub available. Then....
Be patient.
By the end of my first month I had 41 hubs(yes, I was on a mission =P ). My Adsense earnings total for that month was under $7. The next month I made $18 and it kept slowly growing. It takes time for earnings to grow. If you notice a trend in what people say here on the message board, most of us didn't have enough to cash out until the 7 to 9th month and after that, it seems to take only 1 to 3 months depending on the hubber. Many of us started hubpages just the same way you are now. We had to learn what works and what doesn't. Learning basic on and off page SEO will be a HUGE help. I'm still learning and still reworking my older hubs using the techniques I've learn along the way that work best.
If your main goal is to make money, then you want to research before you write. Pick a topic and then find a happy relationship between low Google search results available and highly searched terms with good CPC (costs per click). I use Adwords keyword tool https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
Then just wait. Keep writing and building your hubs don't worry about if your making money yet, cause eventually if you stick with it, you will make money.
Oh ya, and don't determine success based on Amazon or Ebay. I think it was a few months before I made my first Amazon sale. Amazon and Ebay earnings are very sporadic unless you are writing many hubs geared towards helping your traffic make a buying decision. Product reviews seem to work.

There is a real need to purge Amazon ads from this site but there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it.Pages that have multiple Amazon ads but get good traffic from search engines are obviously not a problem. Google will have hit them long ago if they were triggering spam filters.What...

I love to see what people were looking for when they found my hubs, it helps me choosing new titles and see which questions I left unanswered.I was hoping to see keywords under Traffic Sources, but I have to click on each hub and then stats, and then keywords.... quite a long process to check them...

I been on a couple of days and pretty much all my traffic is from hubpages. I get a couple from digg but that is about it. How are people getting their traffic from google and other search engine?

I joined hubpages one month ago and started writing hubs on weekends because I am very busy on working days. I have published 12-13 hubs right now and they are featured (12 of them while the 13th is still under review). Though my score on each hub is above 50 but I am seeing no traffic coming on my...
