Hub Views Dropping Like A Rock!
What are hub views?
Thanx.
I'd had that substantial increase that a lot of other people did (what was it now, last week?). I think it was Friday night that the steady and consistent-seeming increase stopped; and I began seeing "non-dramatic" but continued dropping for the weekend. (Someone else on here mentioned it could be the weekend issue.) Although the drop (as the rise had been) was actually consistently gradual, by the end of seeing things drop the drop was kind of substantial (500 views or so before the gradual drop turned around, I think). Some time yesterday I began to see a slow, upwards, climb that has continued through to right now. For now, they're at the highest I've seen post-Panda and post-subdomains; as well as higher than more recent (maybe even not so recent) pre-Panda, 24-hour, averages.
Considering that my 24-hour averages have their own range, as opposed to factoring in "odd low's and high's" that aren't "the average" for me; and depending on whether I'm factoring in my "low averages" or "high averages", my 24-hour views today are from 3 times to 4 times more than previous averages. As it is of right now, it looks like if it were continue to go up today/tonight, it would be at 3 times my post-subdomain "average" and even "all time high". That's, of course, as of right now. Who knows what will happen an hour and a half from now - or next week...
(In other words, my traffic's better than ever, at least for now.)Rolling, not... otherwise.
Hub views are for a given time period. The one day column is for the last 24 hours back in time. Some of that traffic had to come in somewhere during the day and it drops back out 24 hours later - but is still counted in the other columns. Only the all time total views column should stay constantly growing.
That's my explanation to myself for the situation you describe. But I am no expert so perhaps someone else knows better.
You found the whisky. I got two bottles of ancient whisky for my birthday.
15 year old dimple of good 12 year old Kentucky?
I'll join ya!
I have a 30 year old Single Malt ..... not yet opened
Maybe we all should start consulting our astrological charts or palm readers, or something. It doesn't really look like the kind of answers we'd like will be coming from any consistency with traffic on here.
Which part, the consulting the astrological charts or the couple of hits of Old Granddad?!
all I see today is a sea of blue arrows...sigh
Stacie, on the weekend I had a couple of days that had me thinking my views were going to keep dropping. Based on what I've seen on here, I was ready to see them drop to "nothing", but I was also thinking the increase may have just been leveling off, and that they'd settle somewhere reasonable (even if substantially lower). Anyway, they turned around again (for now, and they're at an all-time high). There's just way too much havoc going on with traffic for anyone to think whatever it his traffic is right now is going to stay approximately where it is for any length of time. Maybe there'll come a time when that changes, but this sure isn't that time.
On the contrary, my total hub views for today are the highest they've ever been in the four+ years I've been on HubPages. And I've been seeing many red arrows for a few days now, right about the time when I noticed the gray A's. ^_^
Hope your hub traffic goes back up soon.it's like riding a tidal wave...
is google conducting some sort of test?I feel sea sick..
:My traffic continues to rise (fingers crossed) and today is the highest traffic I've had from G.. I had a 24-hr surge of traffic from Bing a few months back.. that one must be a fluke as it lasted only a day. The rise in traffic from G however is lasting for over a week now. I'm not going to hold my breathe considering some traffic have gone down already.. but I'm enjoying the ride while it lasted.
Well, this is looking bad, just checked today and my traffic continues to fall.
I am not sure if it's going to level off or what. Are there a lot of people without power?
My earnings were not too bad though - made about 12 dollars yesterday. Last week I nearly hit 20, but looks like that is not going to happen again as of now.You're scaring me, David. Please go away and be quiet!
It's a roller coaster for sure and no one can predict one day to the next. I'm still seeing high traffic, pretty well settled out. As of right now I expect today to fall slightly from yesterday (it usually does on Wednesday) but who knows. It might just as well shut down completely at noon!
I wish it would just settle down and google would quit messing with us.I am still at high traffic, but way far from my peak. One day last week, I hit my all time high, but it has been dropping since.
Google likes to rough people up. Throws some slaps one day then gives our hubs godly powers next
But I think power outages could be the cause perhaps, plus this is a weekday, and my weekend was completely different.
WOW!
Google analytics is really awesome. I just checked one of my new hubs that I published a few days ago. It says people are on the hub for a time of over 4 minutes!
I am really surprised a lot of my hubs, have a time page of up to almost 10 minutes on some of them!!
I have some hubs that do not get good traffic, but get 5 minutes on the page.
It says the average time on site is 46 seconds though...Which I thought was horrible, but I guess that is not the average for all the hubs?If you are referring to my current oh-so-well-deserved traffic levels as a screw up for panic ridden programmers to fix, I'm going to send my friend Bubba to visit you!
Actually, you may be entirely correct, even though google has said there will be many small tweaks this year. I doubt it was HP - I don't think they can affect the entire web the way google did.

0My traffic was at an all time low last week, but today it has never been higher
These things tend to go in cycles, I have followed all the advice that has been offered by hp's and people like Ryan and I am hoping that the recovery is sustainable. My earnings have suffered like most but even they are now showing good signs of recovery. Not quite at pre-panda levels but close. The sub-domain switch has been a good move by hp's. I'm with ya, Ms. Dee!
Yes. I have been getting a good spread of hits across subjects.
I definitely write on different subjects.. yet my views are still low
I don't usually get a lot of hits to begin with, but I've actually had a few traffic rising arrows as of late.
