Has anyone else had a dramatic increase in the number of followers over the past few weeks?
I have been having lots of new followers every day for two weeks now.
OH, I totally read that wrong. I am going up in followers, but no faster than before. (It's offsite readers that are down.)
I have noticed the increase in followers recently thanks for the reminder
As my account is only 2 weeks old, still I have 38 followers. Well that's a big increase for me.
no, but my views are gone down by 70%. I don't know why?
Don't worry too much about that at the moment - I think most peoples' views have slumped, probably due to a Google algorithm change. Hopefully they will recover soon.
Hi Silver Fish. I have had two new followers in a few weeks. That said, I have not been overly active posting new Hubs to attract them in the build up to Xmas. Now that is out of the way, I have four in the pipeline.
No, no, no, no, no, no, and no. HP requires a longer answer when one word is the appropriate answer for your question.
I've had an increase, but I wouldn't say that it was dramatic, more like steady. I only 19 more to get to the big 500!
I haven't had many new followers... And I haven't noticed a difference in page views either
Yes, mine have also shown quite an increase almost doubling in six months. But I also have been writing a lot more hubs on different topics.
Sometimes a lot of spam accounts start mass following other accounts. Then when the spam accounts are deleted your follower account goes back down. It happened to me once, it's kind of amusing for a while.
Yes, I've noticed an increase. I would say a spike in a lot of new hubbers and several veteran hubbers who I've gotten to know better and vice versa.

Has anyone else seen a dramatic decrease in their hub traffic?Where has all the traffic gone? Has anyone else seen a dramatic (as in 50% or more) drop in traffic over the last week or so?

With so much theft of my content recently, maybe I am paranoid, but I have to ask. In the last few days, I have had a huge increase in new followers. These new followers have either 0 hubs or 0 featured hubs. The profile pages are either blank or advertising something. ...

Has anyone else had a problem with Renpure hair products and hair loss?I started using Renpure Moroccan Spring Water Shampoo and noticed a drastic change in my scalp and hair. My scalp was irritated and itchy (no dandruff though) and my hair would come out in huge clumps in the shower - I'm talking...

I have never begged for followers, but at 1,499-- it seems I will never reach an even number of 1,500 which is meaningless and has no accolade. People (including followers) come and go, and those that are still on the list don't necessarily 'follow'. I love the followers who actually...

The Hubpages Angels finally arrived! I was at a steady $.17 a day for 53 hubs!! I admit I am NOT the best writer, but I believe I am an average hubber. I was at a pretty steady earning level of a few bucks a day. Just enough to make all this research and just plain life experience, worth my time....
