Finally!! 500 views in 24 hours

   I've finally broken through the ice I guess. Just a minute back when the hub stats refreshed. I noticed that I finally made it to 500 views in the past 24 hours. Also, last month I reached payout for the first time (After 7 long months - still waiting for May end to see it in my papal acc though ). In 2-3 days from now I'd cross the payment threshold and so, I'd be getting 2 consecutive payouts. I guess that's pretty good considering its consecutive after the very first payout.
   
   I thought I'd add this to the forums as for the past couple of months there's only been threads about drops in traffic and earnings. I owe the increase to the tomato season!
   
   Edit: Oh to make things better, it's happened on a Weekend.

      My traffic has been rising steadily from March End. Christmas time was when it began rising and reached an average of 100 per day. But, in Feb it crashed to just 30 a day. I'm glad that it finally picked up and the best part is - it's been a steady rise.

   Well done, lobobrandon!  That is good going for 30 hubs and 8 months!
   
   I have recently passed through the 500 views mark too - unfortunately in the opposite direction, as my traffic has been dropping down like a stone recently! lol

      I just published 2 of these after getting to the milestone. So actually its 28 hubs I did delete some hubs some months back. I do hope it continues. Oh! didn't know yours fell that low... I'm sure it will pick up soon maybe after this months update? Btw did you make any changes to your hubs or are you still waiting to see what happens?

         I have done lots of basic "housekeeping" edits, fixing dead amazon links etc.  I have also deleted 6 or 7 hubs.  Nothing too drastic though.  I am waiting it out for now, as there seem to be a lot of people plunging at the mo.  I have now given up on a quick recovery and am awaiting the outcome of HP "reaching out to Google", plus the next algo update.

            Ok I remember the amazon dead links. You had an awful lot of those! I checked Google for your username and Not Found when you suggested the feature about broken amazon links

          It's doing OK. It peaked on April 26, then tanked and then steadily recovered, but not to what it was on April 26.
