Fix It 202: Easy Ways To Increase Your Traffic! With Effort This Keeps Money For You

The fact is that you will need to do something about traffic if you hope to increase your earnings-- except that you might wonder why you need to increase your traffic in the first place. Traffic is coming to others, but as yet you do not see any sort of traffic coming to your blog and websites, worst still the traffic that comes, doesn't stay.

Traffic on the Internet is a fickle beast at best, newer and more interesting things will come to the surface, and you hub will drop, but still it is painful. You worked hard to write it, to publish it, to get traffic, to get on search engines and then nothing. There are some ways to fix it, but still hub traffic does come and go (just like money!)

Hubpages is like that as well, here today just another hubber tomorrow, so you panic you sit in front of the computer, you join the forums and still nothing. I hate to say but forums won't help you in the least. And they are addictive. If you aren't publishing hubs, you aren't going to get traffic.

Forums don't get traffic. They don't, and they never have, I know that goes against the grain but seriously, Raise your hands people how long are you on a forum once you are there? Do you go and visit other hubs because they are on a forum? They don't. everyone tends to read a hub and then comment but of course getting them back... well that's another story.

Traffic Come in Cycles... However: Yes I know traffic comes in cycles and we should be careful to recognize this, but at a point in time it drives on nuts. You can't get traffic from either hubpages or from other sources. I like to look at the traffic cycles on each hub before making a judgment to fix a hub.

I try to find where the most traffic comes from is it hubpages? Is it search engine traffic? Aocial networking traffic? Traffic via Google or teh other search engines?

For example: if you know that the traffic from a hub comes mainly from hubpages, then this cycle will be based on promotion of hubs. Properly done, and people will go through your hubs and read them. Not done well and you will find traffic spikes (this is not a bad thing mind you!) and long times when no one reads the hub, or comments or whatever. Remember that older hubs don't get as much traffic, but it might be steady.

To fix this and make some in roads begin adding links between your hubs, and add your hubs to your blogs and websites. Also add some of your favorite hubs to your profile, yes people do look at your profile. The most important is traffic is based on keywords, which is one of teh ways you are found on the Internet.

This keywords are important, so take some time on your computer and analyse what is the best keywords-- using a keyword tool is a good thing. This is basic SEO and most likely won't make you money but will possibly increase traffic. At some point traffic will make you something in terms of money.

Yes Hub Scores Counts, But...:This is a fine line one, see if you have a high hub score (not your personal hub score) then chances are you'll have one of your hub featured on the front page of hubpages. I'd guess that this score is probably in the 90s but don't quote me on that!

I need to say this: For the love of everything good and right DO NOT EVER write a hub like text message. Never! there is no such thing and "u" or "ur" or anything like that in a hub. I personally hate reading hubs like that. Often you'll see that by fixing your hub to make it readable in the non texting language, people will spend more time on your hubs and you will have more traffic. Please do this. Thank-you for reading and for understanding that part. (Please notice how I did this.)

Still Traffic might be dying or non-existent, so what to do?

Edit, lengthen rewrite, look at the comments and content, and comment to other hubs. This will add a link to your profile on your name, and someone is bound to get curious and click on your name and look at your profile, which by the way has all your hubs on it somewhere.

As for linking, go to the share it button and begin from there, where you can quickly add a link to StumbleUpon or Diigg or other social networking sites, if you are active on them that add share it on these sites to increase the traffic to your blogs and websites.

Links and Other Things to Improve Your Traffic: Understand Something about linkings to your websites and to your blogs. These are also known as links. These are very simple to do, and because of this people tend to not use them-- they don't get long term traffic, which is why linking is an easy way to increase traffic.

Essentially this is one simple and important way to get traffic between your hubs and blogs. If you add a link to a hub of yours from a newer or a hub which has better traffic you'll get more traffic between hubs.

What does this mean to you?

Well, more traffic means more comments which means more fans (hopefully) and sometimes more clicks to make you money. This is all done by linking.

What else does linking do for you?

By adding a link it means that google will "see" your hub sooner. It's a simple way to promote your hub on search engines such as google. Beware of one thing, people (and google) will read good content, but if it's all links google (and people) doesn't like that either.

So off to work in fixing those hubs, good luck and to your publishing success.
