How did you get your top-performing hubs to the top of Google?
One of my hubs made it to the top most (result number 1 & 2) of the first page of google. I didnt have to do much because the topic itself is so unique that it made itself to the top. Try searching: "Buy one God & get one free"
Top 2 results of the first page is mine. No.1 is the forum post & NO. 2 is the main hub.
If your topic & writing is creative, unique & not just copy paste, you dont have to do much...Gud Luck!
The trick to keywords is to STOP thinking like a computer, generate your search words in a way that any normal person would do a search, the results are incredible, keep it simple, use words you would use everyday.
Hey Evan,
It's important to have a hot or interesting topic or item you are writing about. The second important thing is to have lots of strong keywords that will bump it up in the rankings for search engines. Make sure your content is unique and fresh, and promote your hubs by writing articles (ezine.com) and post it on sites like digg.com and stumbleupon.com
I hope this has helped a little!
Check out my hub for an example:
http://hubpages.com/hub/Samsung-C750
It is number 3 on the 1st page of google. Have a good one!

I have read somewhere here that google search engines take into account the page-views to compute ranking. Is it advisable to delete non-performing Hubs, those with 0 pageviews a day, as a way to increase traffic in an attempt to increase ranking?How do you deal with low-performing hubs?thanks in...

I have published more than 30 hubs. Of those almost 5 hubs have just 5 to 10 page views a month. More over the hub score is also low. Is deleting those hubs a right decision?

Just wanted to know, have you ever deleted any of your non-performing hubs?

When do you throw in the towel and delete non-performing hubs due to lack of traffic.i recently took two hubs to the cemetery because I had updated them 3 or 4 times, but still no visitors.

In a forum I read recently someone commented that Google looks down on your subdomain if it contains many poor articles. But how do I tell which is considered poor?Can I tell by hubscore? Some of my hubs are in the 60s, but have thousands of page views and others with fewer views are scored much...

The new rule-check out the non performing hubs. How do you look at it?I am here only since 4 months. But people here have published over 100 hubs. Do'nt you think it will be quite difficult task for them?
