According to the latest update report in AC, I have 0 pageviews for 13 August 09. That's simply unbelievable. I have more than 200 articles, and I have uploaded at least four articles on a daily basis since the beginning of August. According to the Content statistics, all the four articles I have updated on 13 August 09 have page views. I dont know how accurate is the page view report, can't really trust that report. Sigh, there are so many glitches at AC recently. Anyone having this problem? Wonder what kind of monsters in AC eaten up my pageviews?

That is really discouraging! So you make money on AC by page views? With all those articles, you'd think someone would be looking! Are they quality articles that tell people things they might be curious about? 400 is a lot of articles, have you repeated yourself a lot in order to get quantity? Sometimes, when you do that, they see your name and just skip your stuff in favor of someone else's. What is your name on AC? I'll be happy to go look at some of your stuff when I have a few moments free!

Hi Dragon, the 0 pageview must be a glitch. I have 600 pageview the previous day, and daily average of 150 to 200 pageviews even when I dont write. My articles are from a wide range of subject. Recently I read about Asian Arowana, so I did 2 articles on book reviews (since I read two different books), then a few articles about the Asian Arowana. I dug out my college notes, and did a few articles about human resource management, from recruitment, training, succession planning to retrenchment. I read a lot of books, and did book reviews on those books. The business book review generates more interest. I do not see the need to repeat any article. There are so many things to write about.

THen may be you will have to post all subject[syllabuswise chapters I mean] topics Scheng.That would get you more page views than general articles , because college going students are always in a need to look up these.

Hi Kalav, fortunately I post in the forum in AC, and AC Darnell happens to check the forum. AC Darnell helps to resolve the problem, I have 599 page views, not a big, fat 0. I think some popular sites index one of my articles, I notice a sharp increase in page view for that particular article. In just two days, the page views exceeds 600. If only all articles do as well, I would be very happy.

Hi Kalav, I am Jane Vee on AC. I was Momma J, then J. Vee. AC didn't like either of those choices so I changed it after asking them what they though would be professional. I thought an initial would do. LOL Seems I'm wrong alot. Thanks for checking out my work. Do it at night when you need to sleep. Oh, scratch that. I have a couple articles that might make someone mad. I've written a couple about DCF. LOL Who are you on AC?

Hi Yugasini, in that case, try to improve your English skills. You can write just one short article for Bukisa, then do your best to get referrals. If you can do that, you will at least make money from referrals. if you can get more than ten active referrals, you just need to read their articles every day, add comments to their articles too.

Hi Scheng, Was in the forum yesterday. This is still a problem. They thought they would get it fixed with the last page view update. Guess they are still working on it. LOL Aren't they always. HAHA Maybe they will throw us some extra page views for waiting patiently. We can always wish.

Hi Mommaj, this stupid problem happens only to me! Can't believe that I have the power to attract all the stupid glitches. AC Darnell helps to resolve the problem. He says it's probably due to server lag. I can see the page views now. Happy to see 599 page views, instead of the big fat 0. Maybe that's the omen from Heaven, to show me the number for lottery tomorrow.

Hi Kalav, her user name in AC is Jane Vee. She used to use "Mommaj", then AC said it's not professional!

Hello Scheng. That has to be a mistake! I, myself, have visited your new articles routinely in the past week, including yesterday! If nothing else, that would mean at least one page view. You're right...unbelievable! Karen

Hi Karen, it's a mistake. The article content shows the increase in page views, yet the daily report reflects 0! I make noise in the forum at AC. Fortunately AC Darnell is around, and he solves it within five minutes. I have 599 page views, not 0. He says it might be a server lag problem. I think the glitches in AC like me a lot, I have more than my fair share of AC glitches. If you notice any problem, the best is to post a message in the forum in AC. They will take action faster. From the response, you will know how many people are affected by the problem

Wow! this really sounds implausible given that you regularly update your articles and no page views in one day? Even I have not updated for a while and still get quite a few views on one day (not much though but at least not zero). I do have days too when I check on the daily estimated page view report and i also had days wherein there is 0 views. Disheartening, to say the least. Which is why i am forging my efforts to boost performance views.

Hi Abby, I look at your profile page in AC just now. You should promote internally. I have only 44 fans, that's a very low rate for Clout 7 writer. Many writers who joined later than me can get into Clout 8 by getting fans. Some of them have 200+ fans within a month. Most of these writers learn to leave simple comment on the articles. I think some of them subscribe to all the articles by their fans, and they support each other to increase page views. I suggest that you spend a couple of hours reading and commenting on the articles by newbie. Add to your favorite, leave a single comment, such as "enjoy reading your article". I'm sure you can hit Clout 7 soon. The page view report is not accurate. I had 599 page views that day. It's impossible to have 0 page view at all.

Hi. Yes, I have been inactive in there and haven't been logging in for a while. Ok, will invest that time on it and hope it will work. I have only one fan from that site and that is from someone whom I used to work with. BUt even she isn't active on the site. So, it seems as though i have to do more work.

Yes, i get what you are trying to say. But i did not realize that until you pointed out. I never realized that building traffic to your website or page was this hard because since i was exposed to online marketing as a content writer, all I had to do was write content or articles and never had a hand on generating traffic. I do know about keyword optimization in your article though but im sure that won't do all the job for me.

I am sorry that this is happening to you. I have never experienced something like this from associatedcontent. I would suggest sending them a email explaining what is going on and that you arent getting any page views. You can then see what they say. I am sure they will help you because they have always been kind and helpful when I contacted them.

Hi Oscar, that means Associated Content still has many glitches. I know the employees are very responsive, especially if you make some noise in the forum. Most members will join in the fun, and with complaints added on complaints, the Associated Content team has to look into it.

If i read your article with my browser, i am not counted as a reader. If you have 3pages, then your AC page view count will miss count 3, i think it is possible to have zero AC page views in a day, due to software manipulation and its configuration.

Zero page view means zero earning you are making on that day. Amazing, AC can manage to do that. lol!!

Hi Lampar, actually it's something wrong with AC side. I have 599 page views on 13 August. I can see from the individual article report. My four articles posted on 13 August attracted page views and a couple of comments, yet the overall daily report shows 0. That's simply impossible. There's hardly a day that I dont have more than a hundred page views. With 300 articles and slideshows, and with AC functioning well, there is no way to have 0 page view in a single day.

I have not been following my page views at AC closely. I have been too preoccupied with other things and still focusing on helium. Did you ever see it straightened out?

Hi Canellita, fortunately I posted in the forum in AC. AC Darnell always monitor the thread in the forum, and he resolves it within minutes. So glad to see 599 page views instead of the big fat egg. I think I will reach Clout 8 a month later, and if I keep on with the momentum, I may reach Clout 9 by the end of the year. But then, my two little blogs will suffer from neglect

Oh, dear. Your computer is still out of commission? I guess your blogs and writing are suffering if you are still using a toothpick to hit the keyboard on that other computer. LOL I need the toothpicks when you are through. I am using them to keep my eyes open.

My two blogs are already suffering, lol! Until I find my startup disc there is nothing I can do about my computer :-( I will try to get another helium article completed this morning before I go out for the day. AC wants me to redo the last article I submitted to them. I will take my time this time around and include pictures.

I don't know anything about AC. Actually I have never heard of it, which is not un common due to that I am a new shoppper for online income. I guess you are wondering why I am posting a comment if I don't know anything about AC. Well I would like to learn more about it. Send me a PM so that I can see if it something I want to try. Thanks

Hi Saul, I mean the daily pageview reports. While all the four articles I post on 13 August 09 have more than a hundred pageviews, how can the daily pageview report shows 0 pageview for 13 August? That's ridiculous! I have a total of 300 articles and slideshows in AC, it's impossible to have 0 pageview for all the content on any single day. Even when I do not upload article, the average daily page views hover around 150.
