The Google algo changes has hit several online writers badly. Hubpages is a authority site and will bounce back and its just a matter of time. What lessons has this Google update taught you? What have you done to avoid being hit as badly if something like this happens again say 6 months from now.
I've started investing in cloning technology. We need about 5 more Maddies and 5 more Norahs.
That's a good one, Maddie. I am sure that its just a matter of time reclaims its deserved place in search engine rankings. What Google fails to realize is that there are very few sites like hubpages. Go hubpages Go you deserve better things.
I think you should hire virtual moderators from every time zone...hint, hint
Maddie if you can figure that out, you will have hit the jackpot in more than one way.
That's a good strategy. Trust no one. Only yourself. And your clones.
Stop writing on Hubpages and start writing on Infobarrel, Squidoo, Blogger, Bukisa and my own sites.
I have over 300 hubs (on all accounts) here and I keep meaning to diversify. This gave me the extra nudge!
I agree. Nothing is secure and that means not having all of your eggs in one basket.
I'm going to work on some ebooks and another site, but keep writing on Hubpages just because I like it.
Concentrate on your own sites rather than those other content farms
I've been hub hopping more in an effort to help flag poor quality hubs to weed them out making for more quality and fewer less quality hubs if you will!
Well katiem2, I appreciate your efforts to weed out low quality hubs and you would be happy to know that I a already in your team.
What sucked is that most 2.0 websites that I have content on took huge hits except eHow. However, eHow decides that they are going to do article sweeps again and are deleting rev. share articles. They're claiming that they don't want any titles that are similar to others. Thus, with the big Google algo. change and with the eHow sweeps, diversifying didn't work out all that great for me for the past couple of weeks. There's been a lot of potholes on the good old information highway lately
Hopefully things improve within a few months.

Yes, I am a new "hubber." I am also a new writer. It has only been a few months since discovering I really enjoy writing on HubPages. My problem is, since I started writing on HubPages I have been a bit, let's just say, OCD when it comes to my spelling and grammar. Before I hit the...

I'm curious to hear if there are any hubbers, who saw a big drop in traffic after the most recent Google Panda and Penguin updates, have fixed their issues and are getting good traffic again yet?I think it would be good for us all to know what changes brought about your renewal of traffic, since...

I have been on Hub Pages about a year and I have written about 27 Hubs and they have received close to 5000 views, which I felt was not bad and my status hovers between 82-88. Last week I had about 8 of my Hubs featured, which again seemed ok. Now magically overnight, I have all these codes now...
