   Woooooh, I was going to post that I had just reached 5,000 views in 3 months but your achievement trumps that by a long way. Congratulations! I will now go away and sulk for the rest of the day.

   humagaia - you still must post and celebrate your 5k - we are all on different journeys so we cannot compare our milestones.
   
   Polly C - my fingers are just short bloody stumps from the typing now
   
   Everyone else - thanks for the congratulations. Having a good month on Amazon too so I am feeling the HP love right now.

            I feel Gracey, that after enough Hubs, promotion, time, and sufficient income, we will be able to hire someone to wipe away the zombie bits.
            
            Also, I did forget to mention congrats on your journey thus far.
            
            I have noticed that after 6 weeks to get 1,000 views, it's only taking half that time to get to 2,000 and hopefully around the same time as your self to get to 10,000.
            
            I am going back to read your hubs as I see you have 2 degree's, one in business and one in domestic engineering

    Jase 'domestic engineering?' - do you mean cooking, cleaning, and trying to stop my kids killing each other? I also have a diploma in insurance - I never know whether to be proud of completing it, or desperately embarassed that I gave in to my boss and studied it at all :. Your traffic pattern sounds very similar to mine. I post my traffic onto my profile page at the end of each month. I have noticed also that the traffic is getting much more profitable. Don't really understand why as I never got many HP views, it has been mostly search engine traffic for the last two months, but definitely in the last 3 weeks that traffic has been making more money, which is nice.

       Yeah Gracey, I do mean cooking, cleaning, and trying to stop my kids killing each other. Yep, the traffic is increasing, but my clicks are not yet.....
       
       Are you getting these views from natural traffic or with backlinking as well?

    I do a little baclinking. All my hubs go onto about 10 social b/marking sites, and I'll give hubs an occasional boost by puting a link on Triond, Snipsly or Squidoo.
    
    The massive boost has happened by abandoning all the hours I spent doing keyword research and just thinking about what stuff people might be looking for, checking the top 10 results on Google and just going for it. Some hubs took off, some died on their arses. Most are not evergreen, but they take hardly any time to research and write, and I'm enjoying it a lot more that way.

       I don't necessarily think teaching you how to smiles, has anything to do with your traffic success.
       
       But, thank you kindly.

    But maybe I never would've had the determination to keep writing hubs when I was getting no views, if I didn't have the forums to hang out in, and smileys to put on my threads.
    
    I see we have upset the HubMasters as our HubScores have dropped. I am trying not to care, as I silently weep to myself
