I joined 5 weeks ago and have been posting hubs consistently. I've gotten a consistent flow of traffic averaging about 40 to 50 views per day. (slow but consistent and climbing)
Then suddenly about 5 or 6 days ago my traffic fell off the face of the earth with lots of 0's and 1 or 2 views per hub a day.
Am I doing something wrong or is this normal? I'm getting a little discouraged. Please Help! Thank you.
Was your traffic from hubpages? It's normal for hubpages traffic to comprise most of your Hub views for a short time after publishing them. It takes longer to get traffic from sources outside of HP. Welcome to HP!

Hi savanahl, it takes a while for hubs to get traffic from search engines. New hubs get most of their traffic within Hubpages.
I had also experienced the same drop in traffic during my first few months. Even after a year being here on Hubpages, I still have hubs that get zero views a day. Like today, out of 105 hubs, 27 hubs have 000 views. I write on different topics, so some hubs get a lot of traffic and some get very little, if any.
You've only been here 5 weeks, so give it more time. What you are experiencing is normal. Keep hubbing and I wish you all the best here on Hubpages.
Welcome to Hubpages, savanahl!!!

All of a sudden, since yesterday, my traffic has been cut almost 50%. Has anyone else experienced this? I doubt I will even make payment this month - time for my moral to fall January is a bad month for most I hear, but my traffic was fine earlier in the month, and consistent.

Hello Everyone. I have a question that I'm hoping some of you with experience can help me with. Two weeks ago I built this new profile to cover a niche topic that I know quite a lot about and go along with my budding YouTube Channel. I'm trying to create quality hubs focusing on 1300+ word articles...
