Ten Times the Content, Many More X the Quality

Sometimes it’s difficult to know what exactly made something that much better.  We are pretty fanatical about measuring things.  So it’s easy to know when something changes at Hubpages.com.  Everyday I check the number of Hubs created, the number of new users, and a chart of traffic over the last week.

Today is a record day on HubPages in terms of Hubs.  Almost 600 created, and over 1000 people signed up.  A year ago 44 Hubs were created and 21 people signed up.   So you get the idea of the kind of growth.

HubPages has been on a crazy pace lately.  Hubs a day have almost doubled over the last month, and new signups are way up.  Like I said, it’s hard to know exactly what made it grow so quickly.  The one thing we have done is made our editorial policies tougher.  We killed porn.  We made stricter policies about what types of content can be published on HubPages.

When we did these things, the number of new Hubs decreased, but traffic grew.  Now, the site really seems to be firing on all cylinders. Not only do we have over ten times the content coming in, the quality of the content is many X times better than it was a year ago.  Here are a few Hubs from some of my favorite authors that were published today.
