Down from 200 views per day to 5 views per day in a week. This is so shady!
Is it worth continuing to write on hubpages, or is their no formula for success? I am beggining to feel like there is some sort of unfair control on the views I receive.
Lately there has been some site wide issues with traffic loss. The staff has a thread in the forums about it, saying they're working on fixing what might have gone wrong with some updates.
My views were cut in half, but in the past two days, I have seen an improvement. Every day it gets a bit better.
In my experience here, I have learned to sit tight and wait for things to return to how they were. It's also a good idea to go through your hubs and see which ones might need to be updated. Even a slight tweak can help you get more views over time.
I agree. My traffic went down a lot and I was having trouble getting on the site a few time so I assume that was what was going on. Since then my traffic has recovered. My advice is to just keep writing. It took my about a year or a year and a half to reach consistent pay outs.
Im just going to leave it for now. I was really excited when my traffic rose to 200 for the first time. It was just very disappointing to see them now flat at nothing across the board.
I might feel differently next week though. Thanks for the advice
I know how you feel, I had the same issue a few of weeks ago; Google traffic was almost nonexistent for about 10 days then it returned as suddenly as it had gone. Now it's in a less dramatic slump. It's dampened my enthusiasm I'm afraid. I'm not giving up though. I hope your traffic returns soon.

I hear people talking all the time about hubs that produce good readership, but I know this number differs for many. In your case, how many views per month do you think is good for any given article? Just curious.

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’d like to start by explaining that my articles are all published to niche sites except one which is still pending consideration. I’ve edited and revamped these articles to death. I’ve waited for these changes to kick in despite that, less than 30 views per day on some that seem to perform on a...

What is the most views you have had on one of your hubs in 1 day?I got 200 views on one of my hubs in 1 day...I was very excited. I know this is nothing compared to all the great writers on hubpages but I'll have to admit, it did feel good!

Does anyone have a good idea of how many hubs I would need in order to make at least $50 a month through the Hubpages Ad program? 100? 200? Anyone achieved this monetary amount per month yet?
