Key terms not recognized?
I have noticed that most of my hubs are not registering any key terms in the stats section. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
Your best bet is to go and take a look at google keyword tool. Write in your key words and see whether they are popular or not. Maybe you are not explaining your point properly. Before I write a hub I tend to ask the question to myself first. What would readers ask in the search engine? For example if you want to write about a dog product you will have to be specific on the keyword. Dog biscuits are not going to get you very far, but if you said something like Labrador teeth chews then its more direct. I know, stupid example but you get the point. Name the object don't be vague, okay?
Nell Rose, I did use google's keyword tool... I didn't use too many keywords because I didn't want to make my hub sound spammy... Maybe it takes some time to rank on certain key words? Thank you for your advice!
I expect you are right there, it really does all depend on what you are writing about, I have been on here a while and still can't figure most things out! lol!
i had this problems too but ignored them. I just focus on revamping my slow traffic hubs. Helpful too.

I could really use some advice on using the right keywords in my hubs. I try to write quality hubs, just don't completely understand all the tricks of the trade for getting more traffic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would appreciate some feedback on the wording of my titles. I have a few hubs that do OK, but others that just fade away. I am trying to rework some of my hubs to see if I can improve them, or if they are just lost causes.Here is one I am working on:The Keys to Learning Another Language: Be...
