Crazy Crazy Traffic!

0 Yes Ryan, my traffic is off the mark, my traffic views are usually around 100-150 per day but now it is over 200 views for me and some of my hubs have double arrows.. I am glad I made some school hubs!!

well, geez, ryan, just blow us away!
nice work!!Can you still see the OP? Cos I just deleted it
I too have been building away from this login, its just a slight shame that I have to.
What was the 3 month, 7 month, 8 month annotation relating to matey? For those particular hubs I was making reference more to the use of my images (which were unique at point of publication) rather than the subject matter.
I understand that she/he has built up a portfolio of quote hubs, but 1 in 9 is the worst case that I have witnessed. I once noticed that I had inadvertedly stolen one of your topics, I think that I jumped all over one of Maddie Ruuds once by accident, that happens. But this individual has been following me very closely, the similarities are rather uncanny.
Anyway, I have plenty of decoys don't worry
But yeah, I will be a lot more discrete in the future, starting with the removal of a few particular hubs and forum threads. I can't undo any potential damage from my existing actions, but this site evolves pretty rapidly, I will just learn from it.
Anyway, I am off to use a few of those nice keywords
O.k O.k - now ya sound like me when I get pissed off - as a matter of fact thats the first sentence in one of my hubs I wrote recently -
Glad to know ya and no I haven't tried to copy ya - just linked to a few of yer hubs is all but thats cause I liked em think I'll add ya to my profile list - you deserve it you go..... you tell em..... and I , well, I like that too:)
I don't really want to rage too much war, just making the point will probably suffice... but I have taken steps to strengthen the SEO position of those hubs in question, so I will rage 'war' the way that I know best... I just seem to be pretty good at hubpages, topics are only a small part of that
I actually expect immitation or emulation, often it is sub-concious or accidental, and sometimes it can actually add value... but when it is widespread, it does cause me slight concern.....
My response will be positive though, 150 backlinks in the past 10 days is part of that, this is a competitive business of course, we all have competitors, I just prefer it when they are invisible... and like I said, she fell for my old quote hub trick They don't earn me much at all... I have other decoys too, in fact I can consider half of my hubs to be 'decoys' or 'scarecrows', and I have made sure that my four of five cashcows are untouchable unless Google does one of its strange random dances
There is an approximate 1 in 90 chance that somebody copies one of my high earners, and a practically zero chance that they can effect it negatively, unless they have a lot more skill and knowledge that the likes of Enlightened Soul.
Wow Ryan, you are really upset

Ohma, they aren't necessarily plagiarised (I haven't bothered reading), it is just the uncanny resemblance with the topics from somebody that has long hung by my every word (trust me, my words often aren't worth hanging on).
Remember that as they are quote hubs, I myself have to do a bit of manipulation and source them very carefully, in order to avoid duplicate content filters.... each of those quotes are somebody elses words
If this was a case of plagiarism I would be a lot more angrier than I am, its just that the opportunity happened to present itself on this thread to explain my reason for its deletion. It just worked out that way.... Didn't really intend to start all this, but I do have a point I feel...
hmm, i might stand a chance at ranking for "sun quotes"
I wouldn't to be honest, they are 100% certain to trip the duplicate content filter.
I spend a lot of time on my quotes hubs sourcing the quotes from different sources. For a 25 quote hub I may use 8-10 different sources. This will normally prevent the duplicate content trip.
That said, even then it sometimes trips, I have a few to delete or rewrite for that reason - they probably impact on my hubberscore.
Hope that helps. Feel free to write any quote hubs that you wish, there are plenty of titles for grabs on this page thanks to Sunforged

Richieb799, don't worry I know
I checked you out as well, you have so many unique hubs that even if you did it wouldn't bother me... you have a clear ability to pick your own areas of interest, and I have enjoyed a number of your hubs. I hope that you didn't feel like I was making reference to you, I don't 'own' the huge niche for 'quotes', neither do I want to... In fact, I got the idea from Maddie Ruud... its a huge area of ground which anybody can choose to cover... I just noticed that 4 out of 6 of this particular hubbers 'latest hubs' at one stage shared almost identical titles to mine, and it gave me the hump.
Cheers, Ry.No I didn't think it was in reference to me but I just wanted to show my appreciation for your help towards newbies and show I was a fan of your work! Thanks again! just trying to get a hub done
Crazy crazy traffic?
Crazy crazy hubbersYes I heard of copyscape and the limited searches.. Just have to hope HP staff have their internet eyes peeled
Alternatively, just do an advanced google search, and copy a line from your hubpage into the 'exact phrase' field... this will bring any offending articles up as long as they are indexed
Sadly, it's not terribly hard to 'copy' a successful hubbers work. You can completely rewrite it so that it is indeed original work, but to follow the most successful hubbers around and use their keywords(which these guys are telling you to use in the hub title and url, so aren't hard to figure out) is just plain sick.
It might be every man for himself out there on the internet, but to do this within hubpages itself is sickening.
If I were a successful hubber, I'd now be very careful about what I said on the forums. Its nice to be nice, and its nice to be able to be helpful.
But its certainly not nice when fellow hubbers rip you off. Thanks for the warning RyanMade the mistake of sharing what works for me.
I even had one guy rewrite one of my hubs and send me a link asking for a critique.
Don't worry, I am going from strength to strenght
No need to worry about me.... I have some big big news coming up in the next couple of months, which will change my life, and see me online a lot more All is good with Ryan... I will send you a personal email sometime to explain a little further.
My traffic is unusually high today too...
although not many clicks.. It could be someone you don't even know on the other side of the world. Just as HP dislikes certain IP's because of previous misdemeanour's, google have a list too. Don't worry about it
ok ryankett - yer now offically on my favorites list on my profile page - if you want to get off of there then you'll have to tell me off really good
- better than ya did the other guy - Nelle Hoxieposted 14 years ago0

Traffic Headache
Hi hubbers,let me tell you that I don't write often. Yes, I know the fact that the more you write the more traffic you get. But at least, if my hub is good enough it should convert more visitors.

What do you consider good traffic for your hub?
I was just wondering what hubbers considered as "good traffic" to one of your hubs? Some of my hubs only get a handful of reads a week, while others get consistently 75-100 reads a day. After looking at my hubs I think that getting 25-50 reads a day is decent. My hub topics vary greatly -...
