Anyone experiencing a significant drop in traffic within the past week or so?
I wonder if Hubpages is going through some heavy changes at the moment (I wish they would send a bulletin/post out about it). I have a handful of articles that usually do very well in regards to traffic, but in the past week or so, the numbers have dropped by half. I saw someone else mention a noticable drop in traffic (sorry, I couldn't find that post again). Just wondering if anyone has any insight into what is going on with Hubpages. It's been a while since they've updated us on what's going on.
I had a drop about a week ago, but it seems to be back to normal lately. There was a new Google update that appear to affect HubPages a few weeks ago.
Do you think that that is what we're experiencing? My traffic seems to have improved slightly, not by much though. Hopefully, it'll get back up again. Thanks John
Actually the drop started over a month ago. Still, the last two days I've seen it creep back up, slightly.

My traffic just dropped by about 33% similar to like on weekends. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. Some of my hubs that normally give me 100+ views during the week have dropped to way below 100 like on the weekend. Anyone experiencing this?

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. ...
