Oh the horror of it all!
My stats page looks like some sort of deadly winter scene with all these little blue icicle looking pointy arrows falling everywhere! I gotta be so careful when checking my stats or one of those blue icicles might fall and impale me! Seriously guys, falling icicles can and do kill!
Everybody is too busy getting into trouble out in the real world.
Nice pic!
Thanks! I was rather impressed with that photo and thought it represented the very real and present danger of checking my stats today
Hey Kirstenblog, you must remember last new year, wasn't that the samelol It will get better over the next few days, just stay out the way of those falling icicles.
Easier said then done mate!
I got falling icicles that make the polar regions of this planet look absolutely balmy and warm!
Hey Kirsten I sympathise - mine is a sea of blue down arrows too And if my traffic falls any further I'll be into minus figures!
Listen up experts - I get blue arrows all the time. If I didn't see them I'd figure my computer had broken. We're not all mega money making big bucks heroes y'know.
And.
My New Year hub is actually doing very well today. For my standard. One bored drunk from Glasgow has apparently visited it twice. Result!!!
I'm so distraught
I'm being crushed with hundreds of icicles.
Traffic less than half of the usual.
Maybe i'll just go into hibernation.
Sounds like a wise idea, just hibernate till spring! I like it!
Me too! After good views after Christmas, today's views are dismal and I too have a sea of blue arrows.
Two days ago one of my hubs really took off and that boosted my views enormously but that too has taken a dive. It was lovely while it lasted.
Don't hibernate kirstenblog - you have too much happening!
I thought after the dismal traffic leading up to Christmas traffic is slowly picking up... it seems to be crawling back to normalcy!! Cheer up Kirsten, it will pick up in a day or two!!
I know its totally normal, people all hung over and sleeping in on this first day of a whole new year. I just have not ever seen so many red arrows at once, tho last year I didn't have as many hubs to experience traffic drops in the first place
It is encouraging to see that little lone red up arrow struggling against the tide
Poor little guy is a trooper

All of my articles have the "traffic falling" arrow - At what point do you let it go?I've gone in to edit/change many times; adding new information, etc., but now they're all falling, and I can't get up. Thoughts? Feelings?

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

I thought I understood the little blue and red triangles. But not so sure.Of my 36 hubs I currently have four with the nasty blue triangles alerting me that traffic is falling. Three of these show some activity today. But the other 32 hubs have no triangles at all. So what's that...

Why do only certain hubs show red or blue arrows next to them?Does anyone know why only some hubs show up with the red or blue arrows that indicate the flow or traffic?
by Holle Abee 11 years ago
I'll bet I have the most blue arrows of any hubber!Of 1,064 hubs, I have 174 blue arrows and just 20 red arrows. C'mon', play along and have some fun! (What? You don't think this is FUN??)
