Please review and comment on my Insignificant article:
https://hubpages.com/education/-Insignificant
You are not allowed to post links to your hub on this forum section. This is where you should ask https://hubpages.com/forum/category/7463 the link here will most likely get snipped and you won't get any responses if the link goes.
I am not really sure what your reason for writing here on HP is. If you are trying to get traffic, this essay will be sure to get insignificant numbers of visitors. If you are just trying to write an essay, this is okay but since no one is going to read it any ideas that you have are just going to be buried.
Essays are not popular on the internet. Most people want to read something that will help them in their daily life. (Do you use Googles search function? How often do you search for an essay?)
If this is what you want to write though there are things you need to change for the page having a chance to succeed. The first is the title. All of your essays are the same. NO ONE is ever going to search for those titles in a search engine. If you want to improve look at some other writers and see how their titles are written, read about writing titles on SEO sites, etc. (This article, for example, could be titled "Why are insects so insignificant?" It may not have much traffic but at least it tells you about the first section. If you want the title to reflect what the article is about you need to change it.)
Your paragraphs are long and blocky. Imagine you are trying to read this on a smart phone. Even if someone did open it up, they are probably going to leave as soon as they see the way it is composed.
Finally, make the article clear and related to the title. If you cannot do this then it is not going to do well.

I just received a pleasant surprise while checking my stats, which I admit I do more often than I should. But one of my best performing hubs got 10 times the amount of traffic it usually receives, from 200-300 to over 3300. This has happened before but I figure it was a share that begot more...

I understand why HB likes longer articles, and on some subjects it's easy to reach 700, 800, or more words. Sometimes though, I say everything I want to say on a topic and I'm done at between 450 and 600 words. Trying to add more text to reach the recommended minimum of 700 makes the hub look......

How long does it take to start earning once the ads show up i.e after 5 of your articles are featured)?

I came across this piece of advice in the first part of the Learning Center:"Write to educate your readers on your topic: create content on subjects that you are an expert; don't create content for search engines, a link, or to sell a product. Hubs that are written for readers have a higher...
