I know ▲ means a raise in traffic but what is meant with ▲▲? Almost all my hubs are marked with this sign recently. I am very afraid with what is happening. I think it is a sign of overly promotional content but why with my hub? Believe me, I did nothing wrong with these hub. How can I get rid of this?
▲ means a slight increase in traffic.
▲▲ Means a big increase in traffic.
So the more arrows - the better!
Alarmed about something good as that!! I wish I had it!!
Happy for you!
for the first time having something really pleasant in HP, so happpppppy
good morning saleheensblog
I have 4 hubs with 2 arrows right now, just seems odd as they are on older hubs, and usually I get this on one maybe two at best. Wondering if there is a slight glitch, if so, it will no doubt be fixed today
In the meantime should we celebrate?
The older a hub gets, the more traffic it receives.
Also, if someone linked to your hub in a prominent place (such as forum) you may get a spike in hits.
Click the hub and click stats to see where most of your views are coming from.
thanks Wrylit, I am aware of this option from last year and have looked at the stats, unfortunately they can't tell me what I want to know. but its all good
thanks again
I've seen ▲▲ on a hub that had as little as 20 hits in a day. I guess that's a big increase from 1 or even 0, but it hardly means the hub is red hot.
Yes saleheensblog always good news when you see the 2 red arrows! Increased traffic couls mean increased earnings soon, well done !
DP Cooper, it's based on a percentage scale I believe. So going from 1 hit to 20 per day basically a 2000% increase in hits to the system.
Same as going from 50 hits to 150 in a day would be seen as a large % increase by the system.
However, if you repeatedly view your own low traffic page, you'll often get the arrows as well.

I just noticed a blue arrow next to a hub I published this week. It's in the list of my hubs under my account page. What does it mean? It isn't the hub with the most views, unless it's a hub with the most views in the shortest amount of time, I do not know.

Where do i find these arrows indicating that traffic is rising or falling?

It is my first time to have seen lots of red upward triangles to indicate good traffic on my hubs. Thank you Hubpages and Google.

Has anyone had a traffic increase to hubs that never really made that many views and are now getting more? I have multiple hubs that are getting red flags that could barely get a view in a day.These hubs are not making hundreds of views or anything, but there is an increase. Ironically, my best...

It plagued one. And now another hub seems to have caught it.I'm seeing significant drops in traffic to a couple of my hubs. Maybe it's just because they're not new and intriguing any more, but I don't want that little blue icon to appear all over my stats. Help! What do I do?Any tips or advice for...

I don't really spend much time figuring out Hub scoring. However, I do find it interesting and feel it might actually give me a clue to the quality of my articles. I can't be sure. Sometimes I need to laugh about.
