I just finished my 30 hubs in 30 days. So now I am wondering how to get more traffic in my hubs. But first I need your advice if my hubs are good enough. Here's one...

Thanks for your help.

I read your oatmeal hub, and it looks really good. Nice job! Just three things.
1) You cannot simply lift a photo from somewhere else and use it just because you gave attribution to the source or photographer. That is a clear violation of copyright. Look for commercially available content at Flickr or StockXchnge -- there are a few other sources -- where you can use photos free of charge as long as you give attribution.
2) I understand why you used the photos, but you may want to use some of them half-width. For the topic, I found so many large photos to be a little offputting.
3) Your tags are all about oatmeal, but you don't mention anything there about nutrition, health or diet, and that really is the focus of your article.
But all in all, very nice work.
Hiya Irohner, thank you so much for the great advice. I love including pictures in my hubs, so I will follow your advice. I had googled "free photos" before but I couldn't find good pictures, but as you said I'm in violation of copyright, and I sure don't want that. OMG! I am so guilty of having too many large photos. Thanks for the advice on tags.. I will do that right now.
Have a nice day!

I can't seem to get an Adsense account for some reason. Please help.I have now applied and reapplied three times. Apparently I keep getting turned down, but I don't know why because I've never gotten a single email. I have almost 20 Hubs now. What do I do?

I'm here nearly three months. I have published 11 hubs. All of my hubs have score over 80 and just one have 78. This is a hub about my country, Serbia. I did a lot of research and spent over a week to write this article. Probably there are some grammar mistakes, because English is not my native...
