Gawd knows what's going on ... I've been slowly building up my hubs and had got close to 500 views a day .. with the last panda that dropped but had slowly worked back up to a little over 400 ... This morning ... it's 143 ...am I the only one who sometimes wonders why we bother
You think you've got problems Charlie.
I'm the one that should be grumbling as I'm stuggling to get 30/40 visits a day. I've written 60 hubs and some very good ones and it's not as though they are all in the same niche where it is overloaded. I've asked this question myself and every answer was different which I was grateful for and I annualised each answer. I think the only answer would be to change every title. But that would take away the very reason for writing the hub and my chosen title.
I'd stopped worrying about the visits, so long as you enjoy writing.
LOL Ghaelach
I suspect a bit of tweaking titles and a bit of keyword research would help you greatly there .. Wouldn't really need to alter the article .. just a few phrases
My weekend drop has been much bigger this time. Last weekend was particularly mild and heralded a week of increased traffic. I hope my recent drop (yesterday) doesn't mean that I am back to lower traffic.
I couldn't describe mine as a massive plunge, though. More in the 15-20% lower than I would expect, all other things taken into account. A matter for concern but not a disaster in my case.

I'm curious to see how long I can expect to be in the depths of Google's sandbox.I've noticed that people rise and fall in waves, depending on when you switched over to the subdomains, so I want to get a general idea as to how long most people are stuck in the sandbox.For me, the climb was slow at...

Today my HP traffic was the highest ever - WAY higher than it was pre-Panda. Since the switch to sub-domains, my traffic and earnings have steadily climbed. What I want to know is:Is this likely to last?Why is it happening?Just because I've endured some Google algorithm updates, am I likely to...

When I look at the questions section of hubpages I see pages and pages of silly questions. A lot of the time, when I click on "unanswered" or "latest" I see that the same person has asked ten or so questions in a row. I suspect that in most cases this is because of the fact that...

I want to do an experiment. Let's all make a post here and introduce ourselves. Then, we can all follow any hubbers who post here if we wish. I'll start -I'm Ben Blackwell, and I've been here for about two months. I've just recently started writing short stories and poems,...

Do you all ever get soooo many negative comments on a single hub that you just get tired of dealing with it? If it was all positive comments that wouldn't bother me, heck I even like a good debate from time to time...but to have hundreds of comments from random people trying to shame my writing or...

I haven't seen traffic improvement at all after adding more hubs. With few of the new ones actually have nice traffic, and the newest with more fake traffic of my own, yet the overall traffic often has decreased, or stay the same, wondering why. This is discouraging
