May just be a glitch, but I'm seeing double red arrows in one of my hubs. Had me laughing for a while, thought I'd see 5 digits of traffic for this exaggerated icon. Sadly, not, but there was an increase.
Does this really happen?
lol I had that happen too. was really weird and I just wrote it off as a glitch but I guess it's not.
Glad to know my eyes are not deceiving me. My sister-in-law was just telling us yesterday about this ghost-like incident she had. Letters started to appear on her laptop's screen, while she was checking their company's budget.
The second thing that came to my mind was exaggerated traffic, perhaps changing numbers as I watch (you know the kind - rolling dials with increasing numbers). Too much TV, I guess.
Hey I would like to see just 1 red arrow instead of blue.
It is showing blue arrow on one of my hub.It really making me sad.any solutions.
The more hubs you write, the less you will obsess about your stats. And remember, you've only been here two weeks. Views, arrows, money, clicks - whatever...all these fluctuate on a consistent basis.
I think you're probably doing just fine
Don't worry. I always seem to have blue arrows but then I always also get red arrows. They will all level out after a while!
"Obsessed" is a good term... I am still at that stage
I don't think the obsession ever completely goes away!
Used to panic whenever I see a blue arrow (btw if there's a double red arrow, is there a double blue arrow?). Nowadays, not so panicky anymore. Ralwus is right, they come and they go. One day, they show blue arrows, another day, they show red arrows .
red is hot, blue is cool. They come and they go. 'tis all flo. Be content and and just write more.
I just edited one of my hubs which showed a below-70 score. It's now showing double red arrows .
wish mine double red arrow - but got blue arrow today one of my hub;((
I honestly don't mind if I got blue, green or red for that matter. I just wanted to lighten up the heaviness of this forum with a little laughter. But I know a lot of you write for a living, so my hats off to you. I would like to write I think, but I need to go look for a job, I am borrowing a computer, and it is not always available, and plus I need to pay my own way where I am living. I can't keep hoping for red arrows for me, or there will be WW3 in the home I'm living in.......lol

My traffic is the highest ever, red arrows abound! While I think this is awesome (if it's real), I'm wondering if it is some reporting error? How is everyone's traffic doing?

I just checked my traffic sources page and this is what I saw:Anyone else seeing this? It's a bit unnerving lol all the numbers at the top are completely absurd and are negative.

I just noticed a blue arrow next to a hub I published this week. It's in the list of my hubs under my account page. What does it mean? It isn't the hub with the most views, unless it's a hub with the most views in the shortest amount of time, I do not know.

I'll bet I have the most blue arrows of any hubber!Of 1,064 hubs, I have 174 blue arrows and just 20 red arrows. C'mon', play along and have some fun! (What? You don't think this is FUN??)

I was crawling in Ubersuggest and have happened to search top pages by traffic for pethelpful under filter "English/United Kimgdom". It shows my article on top with 15K visits while in reality I see only around 400 views a month. Is it a glitch? Could anyone confirm it for me?The article...
