Accolades?

   Spacey Graceyposted 13 years ago

   Is there a 10k views accolade? I thought so. I have been patient, but now I have had a glass of wine, and the toys are coming out the pram. I want my pretty badge! I need that kind of self-congratulation. Noone in the real world understands this stuff - so I need HP to do all my back-patting.
   
   Reaching for another glass to console myself And am I even spelling accolades right? Good job there isn't a spelling and grammar accolade - I'd be screwed

      There definitely is a 10k views accolade. I just saw it on another hubber's page.
      
      Have you given Hubpages a day to update your accolades?

   Cool! Nice on 10,000 views.
   
   I'll pat you on the back and give you congratulations!
   
   I am sure your 10,000 accolade will be along soon. When I broke 100,000 views, it was a day or two, before I saw the accolade appear.
   
   Patience is virtue.

   Christene - 10,000+ on 12 hubs - off to have a look at what you've been up to
   
   Cagsil - shut up with your 100,000 views raining all over my parade! - Just kidding - I've learnt tons from you - in fact about 200 of those views are probably mine
   
   Fresnavee - Its been 3 days already - I've gone over 11k today.
   
   I'm only after a bit of self-congratulation. Every day I've logged on hoping to see a thread started by one of my many many admirers, saying 'Spacey's got 10,000 views', then all the other hubbers saying how amazing I am - me shallow? Vain? Not at all Just off to gaze in the mirror and give myself sultry looks

   What do you mean? Like a bar that would be 3/4 filled in when you get to 7,500? That sort of thing.
   
   It is pretty hard to keep motivatedin the early stages - so many times the only traffic I was getting was me updating the hubs

   yep, thats what i mean. % to completion would be good
   
   I'd get rid of the Questions section, as most of them are pointless like "how do i know if im alive" - i mean really, i might go on a sarcastic answering rampage. (oops too late i started)

       What a whiner!   Here I am, waiting for my first 1000 yet.  Should make it tonight, though.  Maybe I'll get a bottle of wine - be a big night for me if I do make it!
       
       Congrats, Spacey - it is indeed a good milestone to reach.  I see you got your accolade, too.

    melbelposted 13 years ago

    Yeah, there is definitely an accolade for it. What I am wondering is what is the nest views accolade after that? Is it 50k? If so, that would be nice as I will hit that number soon. I need to actually finish and publish a lot of these half-completed hubs I have lying around, though.

    MelBel I think its 100k then 1m after that - so I'd better make this celebration last a really long time.
    
    Oli - you should be excited - I have mostly been following advice from you, Cagsil and Waynet, so thanks for the helo you've given me so far.

    Oh Cagsil - save me - I have been using Market Samurai all day and I am clearly doing something wrong.
    
    Watched all the videos, they just type in 'dog training' and ten clicks later, by some miracle they've have found an untapped, low competition niche.
    
    Well I've been doing it for hours but I am getting nowhere. I can't even seem to generate a decent list of keyword phrases to start off with - I am just soooooooo frustrated!

    do you know that once they are all done then they'll be up to standard / able to keep the ads, or are you going blind? Must be a bit of a pain. Or will the revamp score you some more traffic?

       It will increase my traffic because there will be more content on the page. But, I am not suffering traffic problems, so the only way to go is up. So, how long it takes is actually irrelevant.

       It would be nice to have something between 100k and 1 mil. But then again if we aren't racing to 1 million after 100k maybe something is wrong.
       
       That is why we have to do some serious social bookmarking.

       Its up higher on the posts, but I will put it here for the benefit of new posts.
       
       See this section on the Hubpages FAQ page under 'Hubtivity' in the Getting Started Section - here, http://hubpages.com/faq/#hubtivity it shows all the accolades that can be earned on HubPages.
