my unpublished hub shows 20 views when i've only looked at it 3 times myself. i wrote it a few days ago and have left it unpublished until i'm inspired to edit it and finally publish it before i take off for the xmas season. it doesn't have ads attached to it - mine never do. whatup?
Bots! It's always those pesky little boogers causing all of the mischief!
okay so forget the mice...it's bots!...good to know
i realize now it's probably me! ...you callin' me a bot?
No, of course not! Perhaps a bot hole....!
LOL!!!
Anyway, I noticed the same thing with my unpublished hubs too....bots! That explains it.
Come On Mate....
You Should Know by now that any tasty Hub on Cheese is gonna attract Mice!
thanks for the cheesy info!...haven't published one in a while.... think it's been about 5 months.
Hey Someway,
Usually either traveling to the hub or clicking on the edit link on your statistics page will create a view. If you travel to the hub and you click out quickly, then no view is registered. But, if you click on edit and then leave, a view is automatically registered.
As for the ads? There are never any ads on unpublished hubs.
i guess that is it...when i previewed it a few times while i was working on it...just wondering. thanks.
okay...today, i figure.....there are definitely mice and bot holes!...

I've got a few hubs in the works that are unpublished, but somehow they are getting page views. I'm sure they aren't published (some of them are just titles to develop for later) and they show up in red on the "my accounts" page. I'm perplexed. Anyone else had this...

Has anyone noticed a drop in their profile score after they unpublished a hub?My profile score dropped several points after I unpublished a couple of hubs that weren't generating sufficient traffic, and were tagged with those dreadful half-moons. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar...
