What will happens if no one views your hub articles for a month?
This is a very good question. I would actually pull my article. I would want to keep the quality of the content on the site high and it would mean that the quality of my article is not up to standard. I look at the traffic that I generate every week on HubPages and if I notice that the traffic for the article is slowing down then I edit the article. In some cases, I pull the article off.
I think I need to edit my articles very carefully.
I'm not sure that it matters other than it may be listed as Zzz. I wouldn't even worry about that if it was a seasonal hub (some of mine are on taxes and I wouldn't expect them to be very active now). I guess HBs is looking at how to deal with seasonal Hubs since they probably will go inactive and that may not be good for their search engine priority when they finally become relevant again.
It means you're normal?
It can take 6-9 months for a hub to start seeing decent traffic.
That may be good news because I was getting a little worried. Thank you for the answer.
Try changing the title so that it is more search friendly. I've had hubs that didn't get traffic and after doing this, they did well. Just use the Google Adwords Keyword Tool and find a good keyword phrase that gets good traffic. Then check how many people already have used the phrase already. If it isn't millions, try the change.
Add something new to the hub so it doesn't get ZZZ'd, so Google has a chance to find it.
Yes, I really like your useful answer and I will try that.
You will not make any money from the HubPages/Adsense Ad Programs. Plus, you will want to seriously consider changing a few things regarding titles, tags and the actual content within each post. Try to get as much out of every article you publish, to maximise your profits.
Thank you and that is something to consider, although I do not have HubPages/Adsense Ad Program yet.
Good question there and useful answers. Have not faced the problem so far, but this might happen, so it is good to know that the hubs should be edited, to revive the traffic.
Yes, the answers here are very useful and will help a lot of people improve their work.

My traffic is way down this year, and even worse than two years ago. I'm feeling a little uneasy about the whole Maven takeover thing and am wondering if I should even bother putting my time and effort into writing more articles. Gut instinct tells me HP days are numbered. I really hope I'm wrong.

Is anyone finding that traffic to their Dengarden articles isn't increasing? Usually at this time of year, traffic starts to climb, instead it's either declining or staying stagnant. Views are 50% down on last year.

I know views have been dismal after the mass move to Discover; however, my top articles were still seeing enough views to stick around, and I was averaging over 150 views total per day even after the move. It has been almost two weeks with views closer to zero than fifty. My top articles are not...

My views, impressions and CPM took a nose dive today. My stats were doing well, slowly increasing, with some articles trending. However, my stats across the board dived after the latest TAG/HP announcement of moving the rest of the network sites to TAG. I am so bummed. Is anyone else experiencing...

Hi,I have been a member of Hubpages for a while. I have a bunch of hubs, published on various accounts, and since the Google slap, have noticed that my hub views, which weren't all that great before, have now dropped to almost nothing. On average, I seem to be getting about 1/2 a view a day per...

I know, it's going down and down for everyone. We have good writers, good editors, and the game plan is similuar but different, to keep up with the internet. But this month was very disappointing. I've been writing for HubPages for 13 years. Amounts should hold steady or go up. Is our...
