   I just checked to see when it was that I hit 100,000 views...it was 3 months ago.  Today I hit 130,000!  That means it took 2 years or so to hit 100,000 but only a fraction of that time to hit another 30,000!  I am really shocked to see the numbers grow so fast all of a sudden, but I sure am happy to see it!

         Hey, there's nothing wrong with enjoying the moment. Life is all made of moments, right?
         
         In any event --- I hope it does last for you. I think it will, actually. Your Hubs are just incredible! Maybe it took a little longer for word to get around, but now that it has . . . :-)  Look out!
         
         Congratulations again. I'm studying you as a role model. I once had a Hubscore of 97, but it didn't last long. That did not surprise me, though, because I don't have a lot of time to spend on HP. I wish I did.

Activated my adsense account also fairly recently (2-3 days ago) and have earned 0.27 usd so far. )) I kind of left HP bec I thought I had no chance with adsense and it turns out I just forgot to implement the codes. Silly me. ) Anyway, good job and let's all keep writing. I hope to reach the 100k mark too and I hope it's soon. And I also hope to get the vies to grow that fast. Mehehe.

          It took me as I said 4 years,  but I am page one of Google with very general keywords like "green pool"  I no longer have to type in anything extensive to find my articles on the first page of Google. It's actually awesome that I've dominated most of the pool industry with just hubpages.  When you see your hubs showing up on page one of Google,  be proud!  It's  a good feeling
