I never intended upon putting all my eggs in one basket but for the past week during football season, I find close to 40% of my traffic is coming from my football Hubs - mainly the cheerleader uniform.
All traffic is good but this is traffic that doesn't really help me - will my Hub scores plummet once the football season slows my overall traffic.
Any past similar experiences you can share?
You caught me
Like any hot blooded male would do,I have bookmarked your cheerleader hub,and I am now going back to check out your bikina hub.
Well at least it's an annual thing so you'll get repeat traffic next year - you just need to find a similar niche for the rest of the year - basketball cheer leaders etc!
I had a lot of traffic to my Final Fantasy hubs - that's waning now, but I found a new niche with my Civilization hubs - so I keep on finding something to replace the old - eventually I'll be able to re-do my FF ones when they release a new game!
I wouldn't worry too much. Once football season slows, just keep writing about current topics. You should be very happy, at the moment you're gathering a large amount of traffic, some of which may look at your other Hubs or even follow you. You're basically building up a fan base!

Some people say you should never, ever delete a hub...only edit it and such. What makes you just completely trash your own hubs?

Hi, I am new to HubPages, but I've noticed some of my hubs are indexed on Google and some are not. One of the earliest ones I posted (over 4 days ago) has a little 'traffic falling' arrow next to it. I tried to search for it on Google, and despite it having the 'featured' symbol next to it on my...
