Does the SEO on a hub only come from the title?
It says that the title is really important, and I have seen others commenting on their titles, saying how traffic can go up if the title is improved. But I understood that Google can pick up SEO phrases from the body of the text? Have I got this wrong or is Hub Pages different?

Does anyone have experienced how pictures in Hubs behavior in terms of SEO?

I hope this is in the right forum. I am trying to figure out what went wrong with my hub. The second day I was on the first page of google. I realized that I hadn't put the right title, I meant to change it before I published it and had forgot. so I went back and change the title....

How Many visitors do you get in one day on your hubs if you have written approx 150?The reason why I ask is that I have seen so many people on the forums stating they have at least 1000 a day. This is fine but they only have 22 hubs! is it just me, or am I missing something? perhaps my hubs are...
