What is your latest HP milestone or accolade?
5 featured hubs done!
This is my recent accolade
And so far: 5,562 views
Onward and upward! Haha.
...of course, there are probably other people here who read my post and thought, "80,000? Pffft. Amateur."
All righty! I bet there's a story there but the point is YOU'RE BACK! Right?
Hah. Damn. You know me too well...
If they're reading them and they're talking about them and posting comments than that means you've got something interesting to say! As for me - nothing new yet - but I'm hoping to eventually hit a level III commenter and 1000 views. I had like 20 since yesterday. That's BIG for me.
Have a great weekend!
I just checked GA and was shocked to see I hit the highest pageviews ever since joining HP, much higher than when I got HOTD. The real surprise was that this happened last night on a Friday, which is always the day with the lowest views of the week. Don't know what happened but it's all good. Hope it's a good predictor of this weekend,
looking for lightning to strike twice.(Sigh) It was a glitch. Dang!! I knew it was weird having pageviews that high for no apparent reason. Oh well, no milestone. No wait, I did pass 86,000 views this weekend after 1-1/2 years on HP.
My last one I remember was the Hubbie award one. I was surprised because I wasn't expecting to win one at all. It was pretty nice. I'm at over 300,000 views now so that's pretty cool. There needs to be an accolade for 500,000 I think lol - it's a LONG time to wait for some of us from 100k to 1 mil. Eventually, I want the 1mil accolade
Two years ago I did the 100 hubs a year, and stuck to the 8 hubs per month to reach my goal.. Last year I fell short by about 20.. This year I am already behind by about 15, BUT I can still make up time IF I can dedicate a couple weekends to writing, and get the work done.. None the less it will still be a challenge, and thanks for commenting
(You might get your Hubber Score lowered for having that opinion.)I've already gotten a 2-point demerit from a post I made yesterday.
Anamika S - don't be disappointed! Just keep writing what you love and keep active! I've got one hub that is near & dear to my heart but it's score is TANKING. No views and I'm afraid if it drops anymore it will lose it's Featured status. That being said, I just need to implement what I've learned so far and boost it back up. Pour a little sugar and make lemonade out of them lemons
That is an amazing feat! Sadly, I think the next views accolade for you is 100,000,000. I can't even imagine it. Keep it up!
@Writer Fox & paradigmsearch - I agree with both of you. I'm not anywhere near getting great traffic or making decent money here but it's a work in progress. High traffic really should be rewarded though IMO.
Do you date?
Maybe
All right Patty Inglish, MS and Victoria Lynn with your 100 hubber score...do you totally stress out if your score drops? What's the pressure like to stay at 100? I just have to know.
Wow, Patty, that is phenomenal! I think you are the top Hubber here on HP, with over 2000 hubs and 15 million views. Absolutely amazing x 100000. I think I would be writing for decades to reach that number.
You are an inspiration to the community and our hero!
I recently reached a level 2 commenter status.. two hubs picked as editors choice and ten hubs featured... I was so excited about the editors choice and ten hubs featured... now I feel like a novice all over again.. lol. 1 million views?! 50 featured hubs?! Eeep. lol. Congrats to everyone on their achievements.... Now I must go and start writing much much much more to catch up. lol.
I would say that is awesome progress! What motivates you - writing, earning, accolades?
Well, since my accolades are rather modest thus far, and I am not even kind of close to earning any money from my writing, it would be the actual act of writing that keeps me going. I had dreams of being a professional writer as a kid, but alas, reality interfered and I had to get a regular full time job.
I really enjoy researching my hubs and trying to push myself to make it as polished as possible. Putting my head phones in and shutting out the world for a bit while I work on a hub is a great stress relief for me. I enjoy the solitude of getting lost in a hub.. Unfortunately I get a little carried away with trying to make it too polished that it sometimes gets in the way of actually finishing a hub. Hence, why I've been here for 3 years and only have 11 published hubs. lol.
Thankfully this new Hubpot challenge seems to be working as a tool for me to sit down and write a hub from start to finish. I needed the extra push to see one hub through to the end before I start the next one.
I also really enjoy the thrill of hitting "publish" for the first time. It's terrifying and exhilarating at the same time.
Wow, it is so great to see everyone's milestones, well done everyone! My last accolade was Hub Of The Day, I got 2 HOTD's.
I am hoping to get the 100,000 views accolade pretty soon, in the next 2 months or so. I am also hoping to reach the 300 followers accolade soon too.Hi everyone! I'm a newbie here, so I have to say that my first milestone here was getting my first two (only two) articles to the "featured" status so that I don't have them booted! I'm trying to put out quality material, but I still have a lot to learn!
One of my guitar reviews is ranked on the 3rd page of google if you search the guitar model and review.
It is actually the first review, all of the results before it are shops selling the guitar.WooHooooo! I finally hit 1,000 views! LOL
I have no idea what my next accolade is going to be but I'm working on another hub so I can have a chance for the HP challenge and one of these days my commenter status will be a III
Ah goals. Gotta love them.
Hope you're all having a great weekend!5 years on HubPages accolade. I recently passed the 1,000,000 views, but only noticed this yesterday!

I Reached over 10,000 viewers a week ago!
I'm so excited! I decided to announce it myself, since it appears I'll never get an accolade for anything important, although I have a level 6 for my comments, how dumb is that? Also, explain to me how people who run a...

Fastest 10,000 Milestone
Who got to the 10,000 views the fastest? I believe I hit my 1k mark pretty quickly and am about 65% of the way for the 10k Mark.Has anyone else hit the 10,000 views mark in under a month?

Just hit a (mini) milestone - 1,000 page views...
I just wanted to have a tiny celebration at having hit my first milestone, 1,000 page views...It took around 15 hubs, 8 days and a fair bit of promotion to get there, but I'm really pleased.I mainly shared on Google+...
