I don't know if any hubber noticed the recent increase in hubs traffic for about one week now. Increase of up to 60%.
Most people have reported declines recently. Is your traffic from Google, or elsewhere?
Mine have been coming from Google. For the past 3 months, there was serious decline but increase and huge traffic started coming since the end of September till date.
I have seen some serious increase in traffic this month (December). Most of it is coming from a direct source (as analytics puts it) for my very first article that was moved to a niche site a year back. I suspect this to be a result of that article doing well in mobile search but reported as a direct source by analytics.
Someone on the staff should have a look at your stats, there might be something useful to learn.
You have over a million views, so I am guessing the increase in traffic is significant. Almost all of your pages seem to be on hubpages,com (with only three on soapboxie) so it is unexpected.
Google must have decided that you are doing something right. Which might be a clue as to what works for the latest search algos.
Thanks Will Apse. Yes I have about 1,966,000 views currently expecting to reach 2 million by the end of this new month. I believe Google checked on my pages recently as you said.
I hope it continues. Some people have seen a boost and then a slide, sadly.
You are right. I have experienced that before.
Uzo kedu, that's good news. Its great your traffic took a surge, I hope it continues that way.
Mine, on he other hand took a plunge and I'm hoping things pick up.
Odimma @ Isivwe, I am happy for the increase. Two to three months ago, I felt bad for decline in my hubs traffic but am happy everything picked up again recently.
Yea, traffic can be that way. I hope it's still on the rise.
One thing that's working for me is sharing my articles on Pinterest and although I'm not so consistent with it right now as I have a lot on my plate, I notice a surge whenever I do.
Writing seo-optimized articles also helps.

A simple question. About 100 pages or so are added to HP every day. Recently HP changed its mind, and allowed thousands of un-featured pages to be indexed. You can see the spikes in the stats in the image, but the stats dropped back to the 'normal' level. I recently added a lot of pages to my HP...

Am I the only one who has seen his or her hub traffic drop significantly (about 80%) in the last couple of days? Since I have not done anything significantly different of late, I'm wondering why such a change would happen out of nowhere.

Hi thereI've had a couple of hubs that for the last few years had been getting a steady 250 plus views per day. Over the last few months I've watched them slide to what seems a bottoming out at around 100 views per day. In one hub about ten days ago I got stuck in and added another 2000 words of...

Once again, I find myself at the will of the Google machine. This latest drop in traffic has done a number on my earnings, so my question to those of you who've been writing here at hubpages for a while stands as such: Does removing old and unpopular content increase your credibility with Google?...

And indeed my hub rating, after doing something with my hubs.It may seem like stating the obvious, but I went through all of hubs and put the absolute maximum number of tags that I could before it said "you have too many tags" or whatever it says. When it said that I had too many tags I...
