Where does your Hub Traffic come from mostly? I haven't seen any traffic other than internally...
Google, Stumbleupon, Tagza, Propeller... That's just naming a few. Try taking your RSS as well and submitting it to some sites like FeedAgg.
Since you've only been with HubPages for three days, it's natural for you to see primarily internal traffic. The search engines most likely haven't found your Hubs yet.
Over time (months or years), many Hub authors report that traffic primarily comes from a variety of search engines and very little from HubPages itself.
Do some SEO work to get your Hubs viewing ratings up more quickly. You can submit your Hub link directly to search engines, Such as,
Google: http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl
Bing: http://www.bing.com/webmaster/SubmitSitePage.aspx
Yahoo: http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit
And post your article link on any social sites you may be a part of, such as MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
Sure your articles will be found by Googles bots for submission (may take as much as 3 months), but these steps will help get your articles circulating more quickly.
This is a common question. If you have Hubs of actual interest to people, sprinkled with appropriate keywords (keyphrases) and appropriate Tags, you will eventually get search engine traffic.
My visitors are about 1/3 from HubPages and 2/3 from search engines. If I worked at it, my goal would be massive traffic, so the Hub traffic would be somewhat greater, and the search engine traffic would be much, much greater. That would mean an ideal 95%+ from the search engines and 5% or less from HubPages, even though the absolute number from HubPages would be greater than now.

I have been diligently working on hubs for the past year and had managed to get a few on page 1 of the SERPS, was getting great traffic, finally making monthly payout levels with hpads and was making some good Amazon sales. Last night my traffic dropped to almost nothing and I can't find my pages...

Today I am at 79 score. I haven't seen this since I joined a year ago. Are there people out therewho are constantly voting me down. Maybe it is time to quit HubPages. I have made a point to participate when I can. I guess it isn't enough.
