Is Instagram a Good Site For Generating Hub Traffic?
Just wondering if anyone has had success using Instagram to boost their Hub traffic?
As compared to other Social media websites like FB or twitter its not as effective for Generating Hub Traffic......It would be more suitable for sharing Photos and videos and for live...That's what i think.
If you still have doubt than just give it a try my friend...
I would say no, simply because IG doesn't allow links in posts. If you're looking for a visual social media platform where promoting your Hubs might work, I'd go for Pinterest.
I would say no unless you have a massive amount of followers and you find a creative & effective way to promote your hubs there. Instagram is all about photography and beauty - not so much writing.
It depends on the followers and how you promote the Hub. It can bring in a few readers, but Facebook, Google+, and Pinterest definitely can bring in more viewers. If you choose to promote on Instagram its probably best to put the Hub Url in the bio. After all the bio is what most people tend to read before viewing photos.
I would us Pinterest rather then Instagram. Many bloggers use it to attract traffic to their blogs.
Yes, I do quite well with Pinterest. Get a good amount of traffic to my Hubs from that site.
Interesting that Instagram looks like it is trying to turn into Pinterest. Flattery or desperation?

I'm experiencing a traffic drop. I believe it is because of what this thread is talking about... http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/112459 When it comes to ranking, there are just too many whims of fate... And Happy Thursday! 4:30 AM, USA, West Coast.

Hi everyone,Since Google's updates these past couple of months, I've noticed a significant traffic drop (about 20%). Every time I gain some traction and hope, it's a case of going back two steps again. I'm sure I'm not alone! I thought it might be a good idea to start a healthy discussion here to...

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...

Just wondering what sites Hubbers use to promote their articles? I have seen a lot of changes over the years with some sites no longer allowing links in forums or comments, and some article sharing sites just going away. I primarily use Facebook and Twitter these days to share my...
