After finally figuring out this category thing, Reddit and I are on speaking terms. In fact, I've gotten almost two thousand views today thanks to Reddit. Utilizing the Harry Potter sub-Reddit was the most brilliant idea I've ever had.
Is anyone else getting good results from Reddit? What categories seem to be the most traffic-inducing for you?
The problem with Reddit is the effects are temporary and rarely lasts more than 48 hours.
I guess, because I'm new here on HubPages, that even if the side effects only last for forty eight hours, watching one article get a thousand views in a day pretty much pumps me up. It'll be sad to see those results go away. ):
Reddit is sort of like Digg. You submit your link, pick a category and voila.
ok, i checked reddit out...but i dont really see any categories for say, fiction writing, or pets...am i missing something?
When you submit a link you'll see the words "reddit.com" below the link section. Delete that and then start typing what category you think your hub will fall under. I ended up having to look up how to use Reddit before I started having any luck with it. I didn't even know categories existed until two days ago.
And many Reddit topic editors kill links to HubPages, knowing it's mostly authors just trying to get traffic.
well, i linked to just one story, to see the effects, we'll see how it goes. ty for the info and the help...lol i ended up using the search bar on the right.

I've had a significant long term spike in hub views but with no corresponding significant rise in "earnings".How much traffic is needed in order to start earning say a few hundred dollars per month??

I have been here a little while & have written 27hubs. I know that is no much. But why does CPM or whatever get all the money and I get a few cents each month. I gotta say in the time I have been here I have not even made $2 yet, and I will say right out there, that lets say CPM made $6.89, I...

now I have studied seo for about 10 year now and i know why the majority of hubbers have been penalized by googles new update. the problem is with the subdomain names and categories. ill show you google looks for subdomains and list them as a niche or category. now when hubbers stick to the same...

Just few hours back when I Logged In I got the message that my Hubs have not been categorized..Have you did that and what are all the benefits by doing so? Will it increase the traffic?

I'm currently using stumbleupon, digg, and sometimes buzz. Do any of you use any other methods that work well? Thanks!
