What the heck is going on with hub traffic?
In the last two weeks my hub weekly shows a dramatic decline in hub and profile views - by negative 12 and 19 percent. This has never happened to this degree. Anyone else having this problem? Could this have to do with the New hub sites? I'm worried HP is slowly heading towards phasing out individual hubs to gain more traffic with the specialty sites.
Yes my profile and hub views are both shown as being down substantially.
It's all part of the digital ebb and flow: the "tide" is out. Look at it as a learning experience. The algorithm rewards a little the more hectic energy and tweaking we give. All hail the algorithm or as I like to call it AL. This is an abbreviation of HAL from 2001 who is now real! Gday HAL. How about a little bump up on the ratings? I know you're there HAL.
Ok jokes over. Open the pod bay door HAL.
HAL u der bro? HAL !!!!
My hubviews were up in last 7 days
Hub Views up 13.8%
My profile views were up almost 50% Of course from 2 to 3 is 50% lol
but there were 89 profile views in last 7 days
Who knows the reasons. I don't make money from my Hub Pages, if I did it would bother me too. I was going to try it in the beginning, the money thing, but after I read online complaints and saw how they moderate this site I felt I couldn't trust them with my money. I assume they are making money off the ads they put on my hub pages, probably why they haven't canned me yet.
I found this online...interesting?

Should you update a Hub when you see its traffic waning, even before it's gone Idle? Will this keep it from going Idle and increase traffic to it?

Is there a way within Hub Pages to see which articles are only receiving Hub traffic? I try to beef up the low performing Hubs but it would help to know which Hubs have no outside traffic. Or is the score of the Hub sufficient to monitor the lack of Google traffic?

Anyone have some tips on how to increase my hub traffic?I have built some back links and I post regularly. Any advice is welcomed.

Well, its official, my hubs are all down about 39%. Strangely enough my profile views are up to 40%. This is very odd cause usually my profile views are never that high. Has anyone else experienced this? Maybe its just random.

I've noticed that there is at least one post claiming to have gained a significant amount of traffic this week, but for me, my traffic has dropped by 50%. One hub, which at its height was getting over 4k hits a day, is now down to 500 hits daily, and every other hub on my account has dropped...

I heard that someone's hub can get 100+ traffic per day, just one hub gets so much traffic. How? Give me some advice. Thanks in advance.
