Does changing the category of hubs decrease earnings?
I changed the category of a few of my hubs, the views were increasing, but I noticed a great decrease in my earnings daily. Any insights about this.
You want to place your hub in the best category possible. But sometimes there is more than one category that a hub fits under. If you are not receiving traffic that is as good try putting it back in the other category and see what happens.
There are many things that affect a hub's traffic. If you feel it is in the best category try tweaking the title using the title turner or using the google keyword tool at https://adwords.google.com. Check your tags and make sure they are all relevant. These tell google what your hub is about and help describe it to search engines.

So, I hope the veterans here will have some patience with yet...

The Googlebot visits new hubs within 30-60 minutes while they are in 'Pending' mode and the NOINDEX tag is in place for 24 Hours. This means that the bot does not index the page, and does not return for days or weeks. New pages do not get indexed for days or weeks. This causes lost traffic and lost...
