Do you use the Recipe layout?
If you create recipe hubs, do you use the “Recipe” format or do you simply use the standard “Article” format? Does it make a difference to traffic?
I have just been using the standard hub format. I don't like the idea of having the recipe rated. I think it does make a difference to traffic though. What are you thoughts?
I've used it once when I submitted a hub about kitchen tools ^_^
I've used it for 2 hubs and then the rest of my recipe hubs I just use the standard hub layout and those have alot more hits than the ones that are in the recipe layout. I don't know if it's significant or not, perhaps I should change the layout to the normal layout and see what happens.
I've never used it and don't know if I would. I like things when they're simple and uncluttered. It makes an easier read.

My best hub for traffic has had near a 50% daily drop in views since the new layout went into effect. It is not at the most relevant time, but traffic had been rising. The date is obviously hurting this hub as people now believe this to be an old out dated hub for 2012, when the hub is all about...

We are getting close to putting out a new ad layout that should improve earnings for authors, while creating more separation of ads from the content. For authors, the most significant change is there will be a 728X90 above the title and the 468X60 (under the title) will be removed along with one...
