One method that works very well is to change your network to a 2-column layout using the code below (making the left column invisible) then move or add the features you want hidden on just your MAIN page into the left column. Voila :)

"Okay, then how do explain that the Ning traffic rank has gone up 1 percent in the last month and pageviews have increased 17 percent?"

The networks are buzzing with people talking about the announcement. Internet traffic has even gone up because of it. So if some of the world didn't know about Ning, they do now.
Page views would go up as people go to pages to post about the announcement or send messages via the page.
There is nothing that works as good as announcing bad news to get traffic up.
Then there is the volcanic dust cloud so that would cause an increase in traffic.
Even Facebook traffic increased.
