As you all can see from my profile, I've only been here since 3 days ago and have 4 successfully published hubs so I have a quick question here.
When I checked on my traffic source this morning I had 7 coming from bing.com yesterday.
The thing is I'm very new and I haven't even promoted any of my articles anywhere on other websites as I want to concentrate passing the boot camp first and publish more high quality articles because I don't really want my page to look so empty.
Does that means that I'm doing fairly alright with the keywords? This is the first time I'm paying a full attention on this keywords thing and it got my head spinning a bit!
The three big search engines are Google, Yahoo and Bing. When you are receiving traffic from them, you are doing something right. Especially when you have only been here 3 days.
Welcome to HubPages!
Thank you so much for your answer Helena! Now that's another huge encouragement for a beginner like me ![]()

I just realized that my Hubs get absolutely no views from Bing and Yahoo; however Google on the other hand still happens to send around 400 a day. Any idea why this is happening? One particular hub actually ranks extremely well on Google and gets me 50% of my traffic, I just searched for similar...

I got hit hard by the latest Google Panda/Penguin updates. My traffic actually fell to single digits! But It's been slowly improving. When I check my stats, I'm still getting only dribbles from Google. My new traffic is coming from Bing and Yahoo Search. Has anyone...

I know the more exposure we have, the more chances for page views. That is not what I am asking about here. I am wondering if we are effected by the quantity of hubs over the quality of maybe a smaller number of hubs.I am looking to delete more older hubs (seasonal in a way) to help boost the more...
