That's overall for all my hubs. That number has been rising and seems to me a sign of healthy hubbing at this point. The rest is about equally split between coming internally from HP and from my external links via social media and blogs. What do the veterans around here think about these numbers?

This was always something I wanted to test out: Does traffic on the niche sites flow well? Do the articles there that do not get direct traffic via search or social media have any chance of receiving traffic?I finally got my answer after I submitted a hub to be added to caloriebee. It was getting...
