How much traffic is good traffic?
Everyday I get between 450 to 650 visits...and earn between 30 cents to $3.50 a day.... but I want to make my earnings steady. So how much traffic should I aim for?
woow.. you got lot of traffics compare of mine. As much as possibel, and your hub is number 1 in search engine
You get a good deal of hits more than I do as well. I have been trying advice from various youtube videos
The question should not be "how much traffic" but "how many conversions" you need in order to make more money. What percentage of those 450-650 visits per day either click on an ad, buy something on Amazon, or complete some other desired action? If you're like most people, it's a pretty low percentage -- usually not higher than 10%, and probably more like 1%-2%. That means that whoever doesn't is where you can improve. Experiment with different Hubpages formats, work with different keywords, products in your ads, etc. to see if anything helps raise the conversion rates. Try to think about what someone is likely to do or buy before and after they come to your page, and use that to find them and then help point them in the right direction via links and ads. It's very possible to get 1,000 hits a day with an average of 2 conversions, and just as possible to get 500 hits a day with 100 conversions -- you can see why more traffic doesn't necessarily mean more money.
I don't know how many hubs you have, but those are good numbers; so maybe you should just write more hubs???
Traffic doesn't matter in my opinion. If you have one million people coming to your hub or site a day, but you only make 5 dollars those one million people don't really matter, do they?
I would be happy to get that much traffic because i have a lot less than that. Congratulation.

For the purposes of this discussion, let's assume that I am part of the 1%. What percentage of my income do you feel is my "fair share", and how did you come up with that number?

I get a decent amount of traffic to a particular article on one of my blogs and just decided to add an amazon image link to it, though I already had a text link. I did this because I'm getting traffic but no conversions. Is this wise or unwise? Will this have a detrimental effect on the pages rank...

I know, I know, these kind of generic questions are asked too often. Believe me, I tried to look for an answer before posting it in here, but couldn't find one.So here it goes - Is there any one who is making more than $200 here? How much time did it take you to get there? Thank you in advance for...

I'm wondering with all the new google rules and speculation about what works and what doesn't.Some hubbers stated that they deleted hubs and made changes which increased their views. Other prolific hubbers keep chugging alone and write a lot of hubs to get viewsWhich is best now?

I can't get on Bing for some strange reason - I have no idea why but I am not listed, and I have tried to submitt with no luck. Should I be worried about this? How much traffic am i potentially losing out on?! What percentage of your views come from bing?!

It would be nice to know how this process is going.
