How to get started earning money in HubPages
94Introduction to making money
Earning money on HubPages is not going to come easily, you are going to have to work for it. You are going to have to put some time into it as well, possibly several hours per day in the beginning. Anything worthwhile takes time and effort, you will find that perseverance pays off. You wouldn’t expect to go to a job and do nothing while being paid a wage would you? Look at HubPages as being a new job. What do you do at a new job?
What kind of employee are you?
Are you a full timer? Did you want to start your job as a full time employee? Remember in the working world most full time jobs are 40 hours per week. The benefit of writing at HubPages is you get to pick and choose the hours you work, and break them up as you find necessary. So you can spread that 40 hours over a period of 7 days if you wish. Spending about 5 ½ hours per day on writing.
Are you a part-timer? You just want to spend a little time each day writing, then do so. Or maybe just a few hours per week is what you have time for. For some, writing is considered part time, because of the other jobs they have. This is fine, write when you have time.
Are you a call-in employee? For instance, at a ‘regular’ job if someone were to call in sick, are you the one they call? If that’s the case then you will only work when you want to. You will write when the mood strikes. That is fine too.
Training
Be consistent, if you get an idea write something about it. If you are driving, try to stop and write your idea down. Or if you have a recordable cell phone, use that to record your idea. Ideas for writing come at the oddest of times. Not necessarily when you are sitting in front of your computer screen. Live your life, get ideas.
You may have to research your idea for a Hub, that is great the more good - useful information you can put into a Hub the better off you will be. Make it as accurate as possible; you don’t want to give misinformation. People will come to your pages and read them, you want to be as truthful as possible. If your idea is fantastic you will have repeat viewers and people who want to ‘share’ your Hub with others.
The first thing at any new job training, with HubPages your training consists of writing. You write a few Hubs, make them as good as you can. Before publishing, look over them, get someone to proof read them for typos and errors if at all possible. You have something to say and you want the whole world to know what it is so you write it. That is your first step.
Meet your co-workers (Hubbers)
Next you want to get to know your co-workers, in HubPages you will want to meet other writers (co-workers) go into the answer page, look it over. See if there are questions you can answer, this is beneficial for you. You will be seen as a new ‘Hubber’ and older hubbers will want to welcome you. Next visit the forums, read what is written comment if you wish. Read the profiles of other Hubbers, read the Hubs, make comments. Most of them will either comment back on their own page or come to visit yours. In turn they will comment on your work, possibly giving you good feedback. ‘Follow’ a few people, a few people will ‘follow’ you. This way you are making new friends, you can easily see their work and they can see yours. Continue to meet new Hubbers, you never know when someone will help you with that burning question you have had.
Important link for you to read and follow
Learning
Your next step is to learn. In a regular job you must begin to learn; otherwise your job will be standing there at the fry bin forever. (Just an example folks don’t get mad at me) There is a ton of information to be found right here on HubPages. All you have to do is take the time to find it. Read Hubs, the information is there, just like you are doing right now.
It is important that you learn everything you can otherwise you will be like a fish out of water, just flopping around. Ask questions, you will get your answers from more experienced Hubbers.
Making money
Now on to the good part - earning money. Unlike a regular job you will not get a paycheck at the end of your first week. Why? Well first because you may not have many readers. Are you ‘sharing’ your work? You need to share with as many as possible, face book, myspace and twitter have been built in to HubPages with the share button. You can even email your Hubs to friends, family and people you know. Do this by sending them a link to your page. That way when they click on it, you will get a page view.
Have you signed up for a Google AdSense account? You should have a few hubs for Google to approve you for this, write for a week or so, giving yourself several good Hubs, then apply for this account. This is one of the ways you get paid, It will probably be the biggest way you get paid in the long run. You will find this in your affiliate settings button under ‘my account’. There is also Amazon, E-bay, Kontera and Google Analytics. It will take several days for Amazon to approve you so apply and wait. Then when you get your account you should use some of their products in your Hubs. Relate the products to what is in the content of your Hub. This will pay you a percentage if anything is sold.
The other affiliates, these can wait for you to become more used to writing Hubs and getting traffic. You will be continuing to learn as you go, you cannot learn everything you need to know about HubPages in one Hub.
Google wants you to have page views, you will build trust with them. Why do you want this? Google is the largest search engine out there, and HubPages is affiliated with them. The more page views you have, the more Google says ‘Hey, this is a good writer’. It’s kind of like a ball rolling downhill, you will pick up more speed as you go. ‘Google’ is the hill, your Hub is the ‘ball’ and speed are your ‘views’. If you already have a Google AdSense account you are one step ahead of the game, Google knows who you are and may already trust you. All you will have to do is link your HubPages account to your Google AdSense account, the instructions for that are within your account.
With this you will be building residual income. Say in the future you have made a lot of good Hubs and you are making money, it’s rolling in really good and you are happy. You break both arms and can’t type. In a ‘regular’ job you of course wouldn’t be able to work, but with HubPages, you will still receive income. That is residual income, getting paid for what you have already done, and continuing to receive pay for it.

Benefits for writing on HubPages
The benefits of writing on HubPages for a new person is just this. You learned how to write in school and are able to string some words together that make perfect sense. You have good ideas and want to put them to use. At first with any job you will find that your work isn’t perfect. Most companies allow you a ‘do over’, they don’t expect anyone new to get it perfect the first time. HubPages is the same, they allow you to go in and edit your work to make it better. To get your feet wet with writing, you are allowed to write about anything you wish. That’s kind of like getting a factory job and being allowed to run any machine you want to, how great is that?
HubPages is NOT a get rich quick scheme of any sort. You will have to put some thought into your work, and write good content. Your writing should be able to be understood by most people, use good grammar. Remember you are writing an article, not texting to your friends. If it helps, think of it as a magazine article that you would like to read. Everything must be written in English. Go over your work, give your sentences structure. Give your self some paragraphs, not many like to read a Hub that is one big long paragraph; the eyes like a break. Use the tools that you find on your page when writing a Hub, such as capsules and links. By using capsules you are making what I like to call ‘chapters’, as if you were reading a book. Linking to others’ Hubs help them as well as you.

- The Next step in earning money at HubPages
Yes, there is always a next step when writing or doing anything, if you want to be successful. If youve read How to get started earning on HubPages are excited and raring to go, now it is time...
Just keep writing
Above all, keep writing. When you are finished with your first Hub, start planning for your next one. Practice makes perfect. If you don’t get the first one right, go back and edit it.

Learn all you can about the terms you find in HubPages such as backlinks, SEO, keywords etc.
The money will come in time, it’s not something you will find overnight. Just keep writing, continue to improve your writing skills and read the Hubs of others. There are Hubbers writing Hubs about writing. Go meet them, read what they have to say.
Good Luck! And keep writing!

You are welcome pat. Just keep writing!! I'm having a blast here at HubPages!! Writing and learning all in one! Give it time, it will come according to what I have read from the experts.
wow great i have read many hubs about this topic and everytime i learn something new i dont think it will ever stop always new info , thanks Sweetsieg for this great hub
SweetSusie, this is laid out so well and very simple to understand. Thank you for putting it in plain english so anyone can get it!! Bravo! I hope you never break your arms, but I do hope you make enough money that you can take a dream vacation, or buy that dream home or whatever your heart desires! Good Writing my "co-worker"!
LOL, Oh me too.. I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I couldn't be on here! I hope someday I'll get that dream vacation! Wouldn't that be lovely a few of us Hubber's taking a cruise??? Like a team cruise!! LOL Imagine the Hub's we'd have to write when coming back.
Sweetsusieg: As a regular hubber, I have done all of this already, but I have not as yet earned even 1 cent. Yes I am signed up with ad-sense as well as all the other affilliates, I have my Hubs on 4 of the other sites like facebook, blogspot too, but after 7 months, of writing, I've received nothing. my accounts don't even show any activity. I do realize that one has to generate over $100.00 before getting a payout, but if nothing is deposited, into ones account it is difficult to get there.
Hopefully my reward, since I am evangelizing with my hubs will come from the Lord when I finally return home to heaven, cuz I'm not realizing it here.
Dave.
Brother Dave - As a friend reminded me, "You can lead a Horse to water, but you can't make him drink". Your Hubs are out there for people to see.
I have discovered that you need to write about what people want to read. As it has been through all of time. Maybe you could open another HubPages and make it an ad account? Try stepping out of your comfort zone, and write about other areas of life, you can still keep a Christian outlook with that.
Good Luck and thank you for reading and commenting!
You are definitely a fast learner, susie. You write with the style and assurance of a seasoned Hubber. Go get 'em, tiger!
drbj, I will take that as a high compliment coming from you, a definitely seasoned Hubber!!! I can only aspire to write like the pros one day, and you my friend are a pro!
Thanks so much!
Great advice! I like how you relate it to different "styles" of working. I've been slacking off, but I really want to take this freelance writing thing as far as I can, and HubPages is a fantastic launching pad, in my opinion.
Great hub! Rated up!
Yes it is!! How great is it that someone has put a site up for someone to let us get our feet wet in the writing world, and make a little money in the process!!
A few years ago I wrote a book (well a couple over the years) and went on to try to find out how to get it published. Never did find an agent. WOW, the difficulties in that alone! It's getting dusty!! LOL
I did manage to find out how to copy write my work cheaply, via the Internet... mail it to yourself! hehehe nice trick isn't it?
I really love your hub, it is very useful. I will definitely follow it, thanks
Thank you Lorna - I'm glad that you will find this useful. We are all here to make a little money and to do it, we just need to 'keep writing'. I think of the movie "Finding Nemo" when I say that!! (Dorie, just keep swimming - keep swimming)
Thanks for reading and commenting!
Good information. I believe this hub would be read many people. Personally, I have invest my time around 17 months to get income. And I am waiting my third check from writing in hubpages. You are right, my friend. This is not get rich quick scheme. You have to invest your idea, time, even hard work to get money. But doing this with enjoy. Writing anything we love. But try to give useful information for others, that's become good credit for us. Until now, I still learn and learn. There's no perfect in the world. At least we still try and never give up. Very inspiring hub. Vote Up.
Prasetio:-)
Oh thank you preaserio30 for your words of encouragement! I know there money is to be made but hard work is involved, luckily for me I've never been afraid of hard work! I enjoy that work and that is a plus for me.
great advice indeed.
Thanks!! I hope you can find something useful in here... Keep writing!!
suzi, very informative one and i hope more.
Very good advice I write a lot of short stories and poetries what do you think of that kind of hub ?
idreesfarooq - Thanks, as I go I will try to write about my progress. Today should mark my 50th Hub. (well I hope it does,if my grand daughter lets me write)
Chris - ABSOLUTELY!!! Doll, write those short stories and poetry, write about anything you wish (follow TOS of course). Now I'm not saying it will make you money, because I don't know what people want to read about. BUT it will keep your brain exercising and that is the key. Keep writing, you will get more and more ideas as you go. Keep a pen and paper handy for scribbling ideas.
Good Luck and Just keep writing!!
Some good thoughts for the newbie here. Well done - anyone new here and reading reading this should get a boost in their program of earning money on HubPages.
Yes, since I am a newbie I was thinking what other newbies could do. Just keep writing!! It will come in time. Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy!
Thanks for reading and commenting!
Great hub for a novice like me. Much appreciated.
You are welcome! Hope this helps a little bit! Just keep writing! It will come in time.
Thanks for reading and commenting.
Thanx so much for answering my question of confusion Sweetsusieg. I've bookmarked this hub and will share it. thanks again for the much needed info... peace - greg z
Thank you gg - I try to help out as much as possible, any questions you may have feel free to e-mail me. I'll help in any way that I can!
Wow. Nice to read article. I have to go because I'd have to the water station(forum) to talk to my co-workers(hubbers)
Nicely put! Maybe I'll catch ya when we all put in out 2 cents worth at the meeting (contests), Or I could pop over to your cubicle (Hub) and see what's shakin'.
Thanks for reading and commenting!
This was a nice hub. Very informative. Thank you for the ideas. How do you link from face book to your hubs?
All I do to put my Hubs on facebook is just above the comments, next to the vote buttons, where is says share, click that. IF you are already dogged into facebook a smaller window will pop up with your Hub and click share. Good Luck!
Thanks for stopping by, glad you enjoyed it!
Great tips. Time to put efforts :)
Thank you.
I'm following much of this advice, and glad to hear I'm doing the right thing! I found this hub very helpful and encouraging. Thanks again!
Absolutely! Just keep writing!
Very informative and nice advice.. I have followed you to read all your hubpages :)
Thanks jamesroy11143 - I certainly appreciate you reading and commenting on my page! I hope ou have found some useful information in here.
Great advise!
Sure :) It is easy to use Hubpages, especially for anyone who don't know how to build their own websites. Hubpages cover it all. No experience necessary ;) just writing That's a great thing.
Absolutely! They give you everything needed to get started. The limits? Your imagination!
Thanks for stopping by!
Great information, enjoyed this information, thanks, take care!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting! Glad you enjoyed this.
I am new to Hubpages and the info you provide is easy to follow, easily understood and very informative. Thank-you.
cute!!
Great stuff as usual Susie. I'm on 2 months now and I've earned just under £4... I think that's fair considering I ususally prattle on about stuff that interests me instead of good SEO'd content that people want. I guess the knack is finding out what people want to read about and writing it. Not always as easy as it sounds. Glad you're powering forward though, you have a very approachable reading style and I think that helps convey the information to the reader which will ultimately make it popular. Well done.
Thanks Tom! How nice of you to say that! There are only a couple things that I have written about that people are drawn to, change that 'a few' I have about 3 or 4 Hubs that get good traffic.
I try to write like I speak. I have written 'techie' and my kids don't like to read it, they said I used to big of words and it makes it hard to understand. So I went with what they wanted, easy reading.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
very sweet and good info! Learned something today. Thanks for a job well done!
Thanks! I'm glad I was able to help, and glad you learned something today.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Make sure and let me know when you book the cruise - I'm coming too! What fun that would be. I so enjoyed reading this, it was great and I will be checking out more of your work.
Thanks for cleaning my mind, i will start writing today!
lindajot - Oh it's gonna be a while for there is enough for a cruise.. But when there is... whoo-hoo I can see it happening now!!
CoolTechToday - I was wondering where those cobwebs on the front of my computer came from... now I know and am glad I could help!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
Great article, it was very helpufl! I just started in this and I'm getting to know it better! ;)
Cheers, keep up the good work!
Fantastic!! I wish you the best and hope that you are very successful in your endeavors!! Give it some time, and whatever you do, DON'T GIVE UP!!! It will come!
Thanks a lot! :D Oh by the way, one thing I haven't understand quite yet... We just need to associate the Google AdSense account to our HubPages account right? We don't need to do anything inside the AdSense account?
Cheers!
As far as I know that's all we do. I really haven't done a lot with it, other than look at stuff inside it... No changes or what not.
Great hub, thanks for sharing this.
Oh, alright. Thanks!
Cheers, keep the good work!
Hubpages is one of the best place i know that help me earn money. I think this information is really a must read because it provides knowledge to people who really want to try earning money online.
I have to agree writer83 - It gives you residual income, which in the long run is much better than the quick buck. The quick buck is great for a few minutes, but when it's gone, it's gone. This will continue to make money for years to come.
Glad you found something you liked in here...
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Hey, do you know how many visitors I have to have to see some information in my adsense account? I see nothing as of today.
Thanks for this info.
I'm new to hub pages and I agree with all the other 'neewbies' this is so useful and written in plain English, but it also has a nice friendly tone - very welcoming for new folks! Many thanks!
kosanya - AdSense is an entity unto itself, the page impressions differ from the actual page visitors. It's the page clicks that you want rather than page impressions. You have to make sure that your HubPages is linked to your Google AdSense account. To get help with this go to the Help section in the upper right hand corner of your home page.
Seeker7 - Thanks! I tried to make it in plain English so that it was easily understandable. I hate looking for information only to find that I need a dictionary to comprehend what I am reading.. LOL Have a Great Day!! Good Luck with your writing!
This is really well written, easy to understand and very useful. Thank You for sharing. x
Thanks for sharing this. Most ppl probably wanna get paid to share this. It means alot to ppl like me new in this..thanks alot
Mautdmumto4 - Thanks for stopping by! Glad you liked it and glad you found useful information in here...
akintoyedanie - I just felt compelled to share what I had learned regardless of whether or not I got paid for doing so. Some of the stuff on here is for the more advanced users/writers and can be a little confusing particularly, if you have no idea what they are talking about. I'm glad you enjoyed it and hope that it helps!!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
This is really well written, easy to understand and very useful. Thanks
Making money on hubpages requires a lot of patience. Many hubbers surrender after while...
guramie - Thanks, glad you found something in here to use!!
ForrestDrake - Yes, this is true, time and patience... Well worth it in the long run. I was hoping to reach those that give up too quickly. Some folk in these times are in dire need, and I understand that. If they can just give this a try for a while, even part-time they may find it profitable in the long run...
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
This is an excellent article for new writers and veterans alike. Thanks for sharing.
I am just newbie in the world of hub pages.I find this very important.Thanks
Hi, this was an excellent and very well written hub. I enjoyed it very much.
After joining this Hub Page, this is the first article I read. It is great time reading it. I got all necessary information. Thank you.
I love your approach to HP. I am new here and I have basically the same approach but you seem much more focused which is an inspiration. I am approaching it like a job and learning what I can every day, trying to get to know my fellow hubbers---now I have not written enough so that is what I am off to do now! I spend too much time in the break room (hubs/forums)-off I go. Thanks for the push.
Hey,
Thanks for the good tips here for newbies, it is always good to hear some seasoned answers about hub money making. :)
Elvis - Thanks!! And you are welcome!
kerongoz - Welcome to HubPages! Glad you found this helpful.
Freshtodef05 - Thanks!
Shan75 - Glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful!
Autumn Lynn - Welcome to HubPages! I found early that it was important just to keep on writing! Get it all out, even if it is nonsensical... Just keep writing.
I need to get back into the break room again (hubs-forums) and off to the water cooler (questions and answers), to get acquainted with the new (employees) Hubbers!
timonweller - When I wrote this I was fairly a new Hubber as well and wanted to share with other Newbies.
Thank you all for stopping by reading and commenting!
Great article Susie.
I've been a little hesitant in setting up adsense but I think it's time aftervreading this
Thanks for this hub. I found it useful and encouraging at the same time. I am following you now. Keep up the good work.
Surfergirl1 - Thanks!!
Trinsick - YES!!! Set up that AdSense account, it don't cost anything AND it pays..
Kenneth Ray - Thanks! Your words are encouraging also!!
Thanks for sharing your tips and experience with writing and earning money on HubPages!
Thanks for your advice I found it very encouraging. Being a Newby at this I will give it a try. When! well that's another story(perhaps I'm a bit old for this now) we will see.
Keep going your great
Good advice and words of encouragement. Having been at this for only 4 weeks, I know that building a following is a gradual process. Now I need to become a prolific hubber and get my traffic up, up, up! Thanks!
Wow this was great advice. I wrote my first hub a week ago and I haven't really known what to do since then. This hub was fantastic and now I have confidence that hubpages is actually worth my time. Thanks so much!
Mary - Thanks!!
Gloshei - You're never to old to try new things!! Learn daily is my motto!
lindacee - You are most welcome! Anytime I can help let me know!
Purple Feet - Welcome to HubPages!! Keep on writing! That's all you have to do!
Thank you all for stopping by!
Great hub, wish I could find the motivation to go all-out with Hubpages.
Was a bit confused when I signed up but this article really helped me. Hopefully I can start making money in the coming weeks. Thanks Again!
You seen the movie "Finding Nemo" right? That's my theme song, only I change the words from just keep 'swimming' to 'writing'.
You can do it! Set yourself to 1 Hub per day goal, before you know it, everything you see will give you an idea to write about. At one point I wrote 4 a day, it was nuts!! LOL I had to take a little break to get ready for Christmas, but whenever I feel the need to write, I stop my crocheting and get to typing!
Good Luck, and thanks for stopping by!
this is great well done, and it break the idea of hubpages down well. The hours are the hours, and it does take time to build, which as you said, is not a get rich quick scheme.
Thanks for this info on making money on hub pages. It is positive and highly informative. It makes what may seem a complicated subject make sense. Thank you.
Rebecca E. - Thanks, I tried to make it as simple as it really is to do. Write, get readers get clicks and get paid. It came from one gentleman who had written 7 Hubs and was attempting to demand payment. He made no sense, I thought if he is thinking that, there must be others.
dianeaugust - You are most welcome! I'm glad you found it useful.
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
Good hub! Thanks for sharing, very informative for us newbies!
Very informative hub, especially for the newcomers. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about making money with hubpages.
You built some beneficial details there. I did a look for within the matter and observed most folks will consent with your hub.
I like the framework you have adopted for this information - very helpful!
Herc - You are very welcome, glad you found something you can use in here.
lex123 - Not a problem, glad you enjoyed it!!
giwrgos12 - I was just going for what suited best when wording my Hub. My kids told me long ago that sometimes I put too big of words into things making them difficult to understand. I decided I wanted to appeal to a larger audience with this Hub.
Christina A - Thanks! I tried putting it into a scenario that most could relate to.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
this is seriously a really good article because I just started on hubpages and this gives me hope lol :)
Awesome!! I'm glad that you found it helpful! Welcome to HubPages, it's loads of fun and the people here are great!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
hi,,i wanna try this hub,,and have a fresh start,,i would appreciate ell the help and guide u can extend,,,thanks in advance,,,
Really really helpful hub. Thank you for writing.
When I think of Hubpages, I think of it is as passive income. Something that will earn you money in the long run. All you need to do is create informative hubs that people are interested in and eventually you'll make money in your sleep.
NICE
Really it is too informative and helpful to other hubbers.
Thank you.
Nice hub. From your experience, how many hub you had and how long you had been writing when you submitted your application for Google Adsense? From web search, understand one needs to have about 30 articles, or has been writing for at least 6 months before one can be granted approval.
I think I had about 10 Hubs before applying for Google AdSense, and only was with Hubpages about a week or so. I just kept writing while waiting for acceptance.
Good Luck with your writing!!
Thanks for the information. I found it very helpful.
Encouraging article. It reminds me how much work I have to do here. Lots to learn! :)
Great hub! Still working on learning how to know exactly what to write about. I started out just writing what I wanted, not even realizing you could make money with Hubpages. But I'm learning all about it now. Thanks for all the helpful info.
Thanks for this good guides as i was just started on hubpages 3 weeks ago and have no idea how to get started, you've help me to get started with this guides, thanks again :-)
Nice Hub. Lots of useful information, and it offers encouragement to a relatively new hubber like me that this whole enterprise could pay off and turn into something with real traffic!
Thanks.
Sophia Angelique - I'm still learning LOTS about HubPages myself, I'm sure I will continue to learn as I go. Good Luck!!
Mokibobolink - Good Luck with the process! It is very rewarding that is for sure! I log in and see all these comments and sit here in amazement that this Hub is doing so well... As far as deciding what to write about, I just open my word processor with 'an idea' of something, it usually turns out quite different than I'd planned and that is not always a bad thing. The key is to just keep writing!
svrcytong - Welcome to HubPages and best of luck to you!!
s.carver - Thanks, I'm glad that you were able to find this useful! I Love HubPages!! It has offered me a place to exercise my brain and put down all the things I've learned in life and continue to learn!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Great hub! Practical information presented in an easy to understand format. Keep up the good work!
Hello, I was truly impressed with your hub. I was wondering would writing poems constitute a hub or a blog?
Kathy
Shotfingers3 - Thanks!! I wanted to format the Hub in such a way that most could relate to it.
kathy keach - Thanks! Well a Hub is a name that someone came up with, we have many poets here on HubPages. We also have bloggers, some write just for the fun of it with no thought of passive/residual income. It's all up to the individual writer here on HubPages what they want to do with the space that is provided for them.
If you like writing poetry, I say 'Go For It'!!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
Very informative. Great hub! It's true everything worthwhile requires hardwork.

Thanks for the tip and for inspiring me. I'm a newbie and this post of yours is the first that I came across after my subscription and I can say that you made the ball rolling for me.
Well you are most welcome!! Your comment brought a smile to my face! Glad I could help you out a little bit.
Welcome to HubPages!! You're gonna Love it!
Thanks for info :)
You are most welcome!
What an encouraging hub : ) thanks for the advice!
wow, thank you! I learned so much from just one paragraph ! I'm a super young writer who writes on here for fun. Sometimes I post my school work I have done on here to. I would love if you checked out my hubs! Thanks again SweetSusieg! You are great!!
GJ56 - You are welcome, I'm glad you found it helpful!
lulubell1798 - I'm glad you found this Hub helpful and informative. I will stop around and check out your Hubs.
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting.
Very interesting and helpful.
Great info. I started full time about a year ago and kind of get discouraged. I have not gotten a cent from my writing but I enjoy doing it at my leisure. Thank you for the great hub!
Thanks Autumn!!! Glad you liked it!
tim-tim - I gave your Hubs a quick look. Are you signed up for Google AdSense? You do that thru HubPages. Go to you account, then look at the affiliate settings. Google is the first one, you have to remember it's Google that pays you, not HubPages. Unless of course you enter one of the many contests that HubPages has to offer!! Those are great fun!
Great hub, thanks for sharing!
Nice work.
Very useful hub, thanks very much! Will follow some of your tips!
I just want to thank you for the informative hub. It answered many questions for me regarding Hubpages and earning money. I have always been such an avid reader and writer, I wondered why I never made any money, comments, followers, ect...
I also think it is really cool that you respond back to people, almost every commenter, multiplied by 118 hubs. You are amazing,thanks again.
Nice Hub! I've been writing a few Hubs on and off, my most recent one being regarding my sweepstakes happening this month for an iPod Shuffle. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcGijhm9nv4
The idea of earning by hubpages is not very bad. But i have few questions-
1.How many hubs you need to have before applying to adsense.
2 What is the minimum readership or views for the hubs published.
3. What is your experience about google advt. Does it really pay and help to earn?
Excellent and much needed advice. Thank you!
nice articles
Great advice, I especially appreciate the statement about HubPages NOT being a get rich quick scheme but an opportunity that requires work to make it successful.
@ mannychecks - Thanks!
@ Albert - Thanks
@ maidmarion9 -Glad you enjoyed
@ kuttingxedge - I think it's only fair if someone takes the time to comment that I respond in kind. Sometimes it's fun to see what other people have to say regarding my writing as well. We as writers seem to seek approval and this is by far the BEST place that I have found that lets me express myself. I'm glad that you were able to find something in here that was helpful.
@ pradip gharpure -
1. I applied before my 10th and kept writing until I got my answer.
2. No clue - everyday people read and as google finds you worthy, they send people your way.
3. So far Google hasn't let me down.
@ pennyofheaven - Glad you found this helpful
@ dinesh8252 - Thanks!
@ kpcwriting - That was prompted by a writer who was angry that he wasn't making TONS of money after only writing 7 Hubs, he didn't seem to understand the concept of HubPages. Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for sharing this useful hub! I wish I could have more time to read all the hubs and leave some comments for hubbers that I follow, yet time can't give me so much on that. Voted up! Wishing you all the best!
Make a plan, even if you only spend a few minutes at a time reading or commenting it will help.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
I am not longer new in Hubpages, but the tips are always useful! ( Also becouse I do not earn very much with Google Adsense)
Thanks!
Great hub! Thanks for helping us new Hubbers!
Very useful! thanks a lot!
My experience is that you won't earn more than a average-income.
Hi SweetsusieB, thanks for writing another great hub! Yes it took me about three months and some consistent writing to see much of a result, but after that time the traffic compounds with each new article!
If you aren't signed up for certain affiliate accounts, will hubpages still use those automatically?
For instance, if I have an adsense account and an amazon associates account set up, will hubpages be smart enough to just use amazon and adsense ads on my hub or will it still put ebay affiliate links and the like up there?
@ DawnM - Yep, it takes a bit, but you just keep at it!! You certainly have some great topics!!
@ Geld lenen - Average isn't too bad when you think of it as being passive/residual income.
@ Matthew Rogerson - Glad you liked it!
@ jdavis88 - Anytime I can help I'm glad to!
@ fucsia - It will come in time!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Vcize - No you must connect the two, HubPages will not do that for you. If you already have a Google account set up all you need to get is a code number and put it in your settings/account here on HubPages. Go to the help section and you can find guidance there.
The ads are automatically placed on your Hub in regards to the words in your title/url and some keywords. I do not have an ebay affiliate, so I cannot answer that one. Amazon, you can place certain things to 'sell', for instance on my coffee pot Hub, I have various different coffee pots to select from using Amazon.
You might as well sign up for Google Adsense, because the ads will appear even if you're not.
Hope this helps!
I just signed up and this was the first hub I read.It was VERY helpful.Thanks!
As a new member, I found your Hub very helpful and pointing me in the right direction. I also like the helpful links to additional resources to make the hubs successful.
I only have 2 hubs and it was a bit of a challenge getting used to these new (for me) format.
Many thanks.
well thanks for these helpful infos susie, will try to see if it would work on me, wish me luck! Btw, I've bookmarked this hub of yours. Thanks!
Hi Sweetsusieg.
Loved your well written hub. Easy to follow and understand.
Ive been a HP member for awhile now,yet still have so much to learn and mature ,so to speak lol.
Keep up the great work! Thumbs up, and thankyou.
P.S
Just to remind others,on the right hand side of anyones hubs is a great lil feature called 'Bookmark this hub'-then you can come back and access all your Bookmarked Hubs from your 'My Accounts Page'
Great article, it was very helpful! I just started in this and I'm getting to know it better!
As I laugh at the $2.50 I made this last month, I am glad to writing. I was in schoollearning to be a writer and then my life changed and I decided to stay home and try it out. I am a writer, not well paid but writing. Thanks for your time. Your hub was very clear and well written, now if I can figure out the codes and affiliates I will be okay.
nice informative hub explaining about hubpages and making money from them.
Nice hub keep writing and such a great information i will definitely use this.
Keep writing hubs giving such a great inforn=mation Great work
Regards
Good team work.

Thanks for the information! I just started and I'm hoping to write more-I have a lot to say!!!
Thanks!Inspirational article.Looking forward to reading more.
Wow! You have been on HubPage for 4 months and already have 118 hubs. Thank you for writing this article about how to earn money. You are an inspiration to all of us.
Yeah, I'm making a fresh attempt at hub writing, and I realize I need tons of hubs and to generate interest in them if I'm ever going to make some sort of profit. Wish me luck!
Thanks, I never thought of earning money on Hubpages.
Great Hub love your work!
Very helpful hub. I can see it is almost a full time job just to reply to comments on this hub. What a fantasic way to earn some extra money and learn about writing and knowledge that other hubbers have to share.
I started hubbing two years ago and gave up after a few weeks but I'm ready to try again. Thank you for the great information.
Sweetsusieg I am a newcomer thanx for your encouringing hub. Good advice.

This hub is great! Im in London so not sure if you need to be a registered US user to make money.. but im just writing for the fun of it because its somehting i love doing in spare time, and just found hubpages by accident, and am so glad that i did... everyone seems so supportive of others pieces, love it!
Positive hub :)
I am not positive about that either, but it's worth looking into. Every little bit helps!! I think being in London qualifies you, you might seriously want to check on it. The answers are in the help pages. Glad to have you writing!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Sweetsusieg, I know you've heard this many many times already but I have to say it again - what a great hub! I mean it. Thanks for writing this.
Every sentence, every word, every letter very informative. I'm still new at hubpages, glad there is a lot of useful stuffs here. Thank your for this!
Gideon Shalwick
Thank you this is a no fluff information for anyone getting started online to earn money.
i've been trying foe years to get into the profitable bvloggiung thing, and am about to loose my internet/phone connection. limited funds; and I'm on disability. would like some help getting started if i can have enough time on the net to do this.
Good sound advice for making money on Hubpages.
Piper Day - It makes me feel good that each person who comes to visit can find this Hub useful.
video-marketing - I'm glad that you were able to found this helpful!
Wholesale New era Hats - Sorry but your comment was mostly spam.
imeye review - I try to tell it the best way that I can!
johnbear - I'm so sorry for your sad story. This is going to take more than a few days for you to get started, as I said earlier it is not a get rich quick scheme. It will have to be worked on.
If you are looking for ways to make money, maybe my hub on "Curb Surfing" is something you might want to look into. At least it may new you enough cash to help keep your internet/phone connection.
jaymeelee23 - Thanks!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Very good info. I'm relatively new here and it's easy to get lost in the whole thing. I can appreciate how you broke it down to help me understand. Thanks again!!!
you are simply awesome, just awesome wish i had you very close by so I could improve on myself. You are awesome.
onrea - I'm glad you liked it!! Welcome to HubPages! We're glad you're here!
naijainvestor - Be careful... your gonna make my head swell with all that awesomeness talk!! LOL, just kidding!! I'm glad you liked the Hub.
Thank you for stopping by and commenting!
Very useful Info. Thanks
Pandool - You are most welcome!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Great information here. Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!! You are most welcome.
Hi Sweetsusieg, so heart warming to see you are taking time to offer advice to others and also reply to every single comment, (no mean feat when you get this many). To add my input (for what it is worth), there is no reason why someone in London can't write for hubpages (adsense included), as it is in the UK and perfectly acceptable, (this should answer an earlier comment/question you received here).
Secondly I would like to add that I was on hubpages 18 months before I received my first payout, but now I receive payouts pretty much monthly, each of which is usually just over the payout threshold.
It is also worth reassuring new hubbers that certain hubbers do earn a good income from this, e.g. Misha, who freely admits he earns well into three figure sums each month with only about 20+ hubs.
Hope this helps a few more newbies, and keep up the good work, you are a star :)
Great info and advice. I hope it will work for me. Thanks for sharing this to us.
hi again,am new at this and i want to noe if, this particular hub was published in a forum or not. Secondly, what niche if any u specialize in. I have published four hubs in two days is that okay and how do I popularise my hubs. Thank you.
just to test
Mistyhorizon - Thank you so much for stopping by and helping out!! It surely will help the new Hubbers see a 'seasoned' Hubber that has such good things to say! Yes, I have heard that Misha does make a fairly decent income and thought he only had about 20 Hubs. I thought for sure the UK was accepted by Google, but since I don't live there I couldn't be positive and didn't want to give false hope.
The comments have been lots of fun, hard to keep up with but fun!
helene.bliss - Just keep writing!! You'll do fine.
naijanvestor - No this particular Hub is not in a forum, I happened to see a single question and felt it was best answered in a Hub. As far as my niche - I don't have any, my interests range far and wide. At the time I'm writing, I write what I feel is important and think the world wants to know. (This is not always the case mind you) I have several articles that I thought were important to the world and don't get many views.
henry - test works just fine!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting - Take a minute to go and visit mistyhorizon! She is a fantastic lady!! (Just click in her name)
Excellent information. Sharing with my facebook friends and rating up! :)
Thanks Wendy!! I'm glad you liked it and of course I am glad you shared it! We can get the word out this way!!
I found out about hubpages few years ago and most of the articles i read are talking about how much they earn from it. I am reading comments here and it shows that each members are cooperative. I think it is good idea to have hubpage. Nice post Sweetsusieg :)
Hi Sweetsusieg
I'm not even a month old in HubPages, but couldn't help noting your hub. It is so loaded with info that will help some of us grow in this space, of course with your help. Congrats for coming this far. hope to make it too
Clare - Thanks! Yes, most of the members of HubPages are quite nice! I have made several friends on here, that have extended outside of HubPages.
Anjili - Welcome to HubPages!! Thanks for your lovely comment! I'm so glad that I can be of help to those who are in need. Of course you will make it! I have confidence!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
Awesome article. Great point about how you need to treat this like a job and also about being persistent. Look forward to reading more from you. Thanks
jmysuits - Thanks! Yes, It took me a minute to figure it out. When I seen those first few pennies on my AdSense account was when I realized "Hey, this could make me money!!" It was then I began to put forth a serious effort to keep writing.
Thanks for stopping by!! (commenting too!)
It's been so long since I've written a Hub, maybe I need to get back to it!
Absolutely!! Get back in the saddle again.... You'll enjoy it!! Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you for this hub. I am new and constantly learning. You have given sound advise.
I'm new to Hubpages and really appreciate the information you have shared. I love to share ideas and information and your hub confirmed that Hubpages is a great way to share with others. Thanks!
@ Bettybarnesb - You are welcome! Glad I could help you feel acclimated to HubPages! Welcome to HubPages!!
Helpful Hanna - Welcome to HubPages! There's lots of sharing going on at HubPages, so I'm sure you'll fit right in.
Thanl you both for stopping by and commenting!
I've been around for awhile here on Hubpages, but this is a good review, thanks.
Great info. Thanks for sharing. Will definitely implement.
I love how you talk about patients! great hub!!
I had a fun time reading your work, and now I know what I can do to be better. Thank you for your knowledge.
It really great your hubpages, it is very useful. I will definitely follow it, really great information for how to get started money ,,,,,
Hey i have published my own hubs but when i apply for google ads they mail me that u cant take this whats the reason 4 this plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
and also i have recieve java script from contera now how and where i copy and paste it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A good reading experience.Sweetsusieg, thanks for your kind elaborations.
Bob Ewing - Glad you enjoyed it!!
alite - Thanks!
molson5070 - Thanks! Yes, you definitely need patience with the Internet!!
lifewellspoken - Glad that I could help out!
talk.learnwebpage - Thanks!
everything4every1 - I am not sure, have you been denied? It may just take a little more time. How many Hubs do you have? It also depends on where you live as well. If you're outside of the US sometimes it takes Google a bit longer to accept you.
As of yet I have not signed up for Konters, so I cannot answer that at all.
josechukkiri - You are most welcome!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
very helpful:)
what a great post! thank you for this Susie :)
How do you get a hub pages score of 100?
Susie, thanks for the great hub. I've been a member for a few months now but too busy until recently to be super active. Here's my question...I've written 10 hubs so far, and if I do say so myself, I think they're pretty good. (I worked my tail off on them.) I've gotten some page views but not many followers and zero comments. Is there something I can do better to make it more interactive for people when they come to my hub? And, how do I get more people to my hub?!! : )
lovetherain - Glad you were able to find something useful in it!
hotheadtech - Thanks!!
Ryan Hall - I have no idea how the Hub metrics (or whatever they are called) works. I'm not sure how it got to 100, but it feels like I got an A in school!! I remember working very hard for an A in my 12th grade English class. Eventually I got a A-, but it still was an A to me!
fooduciary - Have you 'shared' your Hubs? Just about the comment section there is the word 'share'. You can sign up for stumbleupon then post them there. A blog site can be shared, facebook, myspace. E-mail the link to friends and family. It takes a bit of time for google to pick up Hubs (I'd give it at least 10 days per Hub).
To make your Hubs interactive you can ask questions of your visitors. Make sure you have plenty of tags (just make sure the words that you tag are in the Hub).
Hope this helps!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Great hub. Thanks for sharing all the great information.
Thanks for your words of advice...it's a definite motivator.
bgigstead - Thanks! And you are most welcome!!
kgartman - Glad I could be of assistance!
Thanks for stopping by!!
This is excellent advice. Thanks so much for sharing.
Not a problem, glad I could help!!
This is one of the best hubs I have read summing up "how to make money at HubPages". Excellent advice, straightforward and to the point.
I'm bookmarking this one especially for the newbies. Facebooked and twittered!
Thanks Dorsi!! I sure do appreciate the facebooking and twittering! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Your exactly right Sweetsusieg. The big thing is you have to be dedicated to the job your working on. And I see you are dedicated. I just joined Hubpages and I like it. Great community and topics to share. I think I'm going to stay.
This is true, hard work and dedication to the job. As with anything perseverance pays off. I love it here at HubPages and will stay as long as they allow me!!
Welcome to HubPages and best of luck to you in your work!
Great hub! It's always nice to read information from people who have been at it awhile and know what they're talking about. Your advice to just keep writing is the key - I've seen so many people give it a go, then in a few weeks or months, they're not having much success so they give up, but if they'd just stuck with it, they could have been really successful.
Always nice to read information of any artical. Great Hub!
I wish one person would help me so that I can make money on hubs or my hubs.
Hi I found your article very interesting being on hub pages for a year now I haven't made anything yet. I have google adsense and amazon so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.. Maybe I don't have enough hubs? I also haven't been on here in awahile but I'm back and going to give it another shot and hope I make a little money but in the meantime I'm having fun doing it.
Nice article ma'am. I reached a score of 60. I am trying hard to reach 100.
SweetMarie83 - This is true, they get frustrated very quickly! It took me about 3 weeks of working overtime (16 - 18 hours per day) to learn as much as i have. That along with writing 1-2 Hubs per day. One day I was on fire and wrote 4. This was 7 days per week for me. I became the 'workaholic' in writing. It was several weeks before a seen a few pennies of earnings. Once that happened I liked it and became encouraged with each new day, The first time I 'Googled' one of my Hubs and it was on the first page I was excited!!
Instead of staring at my computer in frustration I'd read others Hubs to see what I could do differently. There are TONS of 'how to's' on here. My one little Hub is not the only answer.
Pokhrel - Thanks!!
onceuponatime66 - Time - It's going to take time to see some earnings. I looked at your Hubs, try to make them a little bit longer a good rule of thumb is between 800 - 1000 words. And just keep writing!! It isn't going to happen overnight.
GlstngRosePetals - More Hubs!! Keep writing! You see I have 119 Hubs... I try to add at least 1 per week now. It's almost Christmas and I have been making gifts so it's difficult to write and crochet. Having fun is very important!! One must like their job for it to show through in their work!
Pulsating Tinnus - Good job! Now just keep writing!! Just so were clear on here. It's not the score that makes the money. It's the visitors on your pages that make you the money. The score is just an added bonus that gives you a good feeling of doing something right.
Think of school - the A was the 'bonus' the knowledge was the 'pay'...
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
thanks for the advise...may i know what is the minimum payout for hubpages?
The minimum pay out for Google Adsense is $100.00. It is google that you get your pay from, like Amazon, Kontera and E-bay, each one of those payouts is different. HubPages itself does not pay you. They provide the space for you to write on, in turn they get a smaller percentage of what you get paid.
Hope this helps!
This is a great hub (even for those of us who arent so new:)
Thank you so much, your information was very informative and helpful.
princess g - Thank You!! I'm glad you liked it. It's very helpful when those who have been around a while are appreciative!
sdbeasley - You are most welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful...
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
I'm new to the hubpages, and I must say that this hub has so far been the most helpful. I try to write about things that I like and earn some money in the process. Great advice!
Writing about things you enjoy helps get into the swing of things and gets the neurons connecting!! After a while the words just seem to flow. Making money is just a bonus! It's like a painter who paints for the love of it, selling his/her paintings is just a bonus.
hi sweetsusieg my name is nagendra ...i applied for google adsense but they disapproved it and they give me the reason that my hubpages is underconstruction...i modified it and i again sent for approval but they again disapproved my account my hubpage is http://hubpages.com/hub/goregoannews
please check it and tell me the reason wats wrong with my hubpages
There are various reasons for Google taking there time to accept you. 1. You joined 3 weeks ago and with that you have produced 2 Hubs. To them that seems like you are a 'call in' employee (see above, 2nd paragraph) 2. Make your Hubs interesting, something that people want to read. 3. Make them 600 - 1000 words long. Here is the help link where you might find some answers. http://hubpages.com/faq/ I do not work for Google and only write for HubPages so these are the best answers I can give. Best of Luck to you!
Your hub is so informative and well written.
Hub uup!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!! Glad you stopped by too! I'm glad you liked it!
232 comments!! Whoa...
*Goes all googly eyed.
I am here for last few months wandering worthless. Your approach as a employee in hub writing is really inspiring. Really thanks for this lessons.
Great.... Its a really creative idea.... I like your hub
Wow this is amazing :) Using your advice, I KNOW I'm going to make some money from this HubPages venture. Many thanks - you are a fantastic writer.
QudsiaP1 - LOL (Googly eyes are fun!)
ansonabey - I'm glad that I was able to help you stop spinning in circles and point you in the right direction!
submitedgeclb - Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
Biarritz - That's the ticket, Be positive! Diligence and perseverance to your work will get you where you want to be! Not sure about me being a fantastic writer, I just write like I talk.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Thank you so much for this nice information.
Henry Ward Beecher said "Success is the ability to convert ideas into things".
I think that Hubpages is a fantastic place to do that.
Regards.
Thank you for the very nice comment! Glad you stopped by!!
Susie thanks for the helpful and encouraging hub. I like your writing style, this was an easy read. I had written a hub ages ago and had never hit that publish button. I am not sure what I was waiting for but I finally took the plunge and published my first hub! I will be checking out more of your writing, from your titles it looks like we could have some things in common!
Thanks, I try to write like I talk. I'm glad you finally hit that publish button! Not sure if us having things is common is a good thing for you! LOL, most of the time my life is in a shambles!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Great hub, very useful advice. I must admit I am a little down hearted about my own hubs. I put quite a bit of effort into them, but as yet I have made nothing at all. People just don't seem to want to read what I write, but after reading this hub and a couple of others like it, I am just going to keep plugging away. Thank you for giving me a little hope and the push I needed to keep going.
I clicked on your name, not sure why you are down hearted, you have been read/viewed over 10,000 times with only 57 Hubs.. That's saying something! Is it the comments? As a general rule of thumb, rarely will you get comments from people who aren't 'Hubbers'. They may not realize they can comment, then also there is the 'url optional' thing... The unknown scares people.
Glad I could be of help!
Thanks for stopping by!
what an illuminating article, is is quite an eye opener
for newbies on the hubpages.Please keep it up . More grease to your elbow.
Thanks! Working on 'the next step' as we speak...
Sweetsusieg: Thanks for helping me with the dim lightbulb in my head. As a starting all over again writer, I am finding a lot of useful ideas and tips here on HubPages.
Thanks again.
Darlene
great article, thanks
DSteelman - LOL - sorry that made me chuckle... the light bulb reference. Glad your writing again!!
valerie miller - Thanks!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!!
Great article. Thanks for sharing!
Not a problem, anytime I can help I like to try!
Thanks for stopping by!
Completely new to hubs. Only discovered the idea yesterday! Your article is encouraging. Maybe I'll give it a try!
Welcome to HubPages!! I'm sure you're going to love it! The people are great here...
Hi Sweetsusieg.. I'm new to Hubpages and really love writing here. I joined basically just to write but after I learned about adsense I went ahead and signed up for it. Everyone is so nice here. I'm addicted!! Thanks for this hub.. great info.
Hi, You've written great info which anyone can comprehend easily. After reading your hub, just thought I should ask you -
My adsense has been banned. Do you think I can earn money by using any other way on hubpages?
Thank you for sharing this topic. I got much ideas in as a hubber. Cheers!
Hi Jamie - Welcome to HubPages! I know the feeling, turn on the coffee pot, open HubPages and sometimes begin writing even before the coffee is done! Yep, I got it bad.
MK - Hon, that I do not know the answer to, that probably would be best left to the staff at HubPages. You can e-mail them and they will return your e-mail with an answer (one way or another) in a timely manor.
Jabapski - Thanks for stopping by! Glad you got some good ideas!!
websclubs - sorry, people come for information, not to read spam... you have been deleted...
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting.
just love it
Thanks for your honest reflection on how to make money on hubpages. Perseverance is key. It's meant to be hard in the beginning. It's just not possible for it to be easy. You are competing with thousands of other web pages (if you are lucky). People have to find you hub and read it for you to make money. There are only 10 spots on Google page one and out of those, only 5 really bring in any significant traffic. You have to look at it as a competition. If you write well, put effort into promotion and learn as much as you can, in the end your hard work will pay off!
Great Stuff, thanks for the advice! I dropped out of hubpages for months and months cause I wanted it quick, but now I am in it for the long haul!
Xishan Ansari - Thanks!!
Carrie.M - You got it!! That's it exactly. Good Luck with your Hub Writing!!
apStumbo - You are most welcome! Glad to have you back! Hope to see you 'keep on writing'...
Thank you all for stopping by!
There has been a number of hubs written about this very subject and I must say yours is one of the very best I have read yet! Very well thought out and well written! Held my interest and I enjoyed your writing style. Very impressive work!
Thanks Kim! Those are some mighty nice words too!! I sure do appreciate your kind comments.
Thanks for stopping by!
A well written hub! I like the Nemo clip, too :)
LOL, me too!! I love Dorie! Just keep swimming... Yep, that's what I do. I just interchange the word swimming with whatever I'm doing at the moment to keep on going.. Thanks for stopping by!
great job
I am very new to this Hubbing..Just signed up as a matter of fact...Thank-you for the info!...
redrico91 - Thanks!
anoesdelacourt - Welcome to HubPages! Have fun with HubPages, most of us have a great time. I hope you get to make lots of new friends!!
Appreciate you spreading your know how to us newbies. Passing on knowledge is the noblest of endeavors. Glad I found you, thanks.
This is defently helping a newbie out! Thank you!!
This is a well written hub. Wow! A score of 98 after just 4 months is really good.
Doug Turner - What a nice compliment!! Thank You!! Anytime I can help I'd be glad to.
Sex-N-KansasCity - You are most welcome!!
Barbara Kay - I'm not sure how the scores work, I only know when they get up there I do the pee-pee dance!! To me it's like getting that hard earned A in English class.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
This is really encouraging to newbie who are joining here. Great tips for posting ideas in hub. It is true that some great ideas comes suddenly but most we can't preserve- forgot ! Your tips in this regard will certainly be helped to all newbie hubbers.
thank helpful info
This is sure the truth! it takes time to get established on Hub Pages and get a reputation(Hub Score). The more hits you get and the more hubs you have, the more money you will make. It is a numbers game, quality over quality is equally important. To think of all the wasted hours I spent writing on forums when I could have spent my time writing hubs...
Great article very encouraging and helpful. I am voting this up. Thanks ~~ dgicre
virtualpages - I hope that it helps those who are floundering around looking for a helping hand. After finding my notes all over the place, my youngest daughter bought me a note pad with her first paycheck! She loves that I am finally fulfilling my dream of writing!
djplayer - you are most welcome!
dgicre - Again such nice comments from you! I wouldn't necessarily say you time in the forums were wasted, you met friends and have followers from it, so maybe when you decide to get 'down to business' you'll have a pretty darned good head start!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Hello Sweetsusieg
You should call yourself a sweet angel with a helpful article like that especially for new hubbers like us.
Want to sincerely appreciate your time and happy that finally I am also fulfilling my dream of writing after being busy with my two little ones who still need me on and off. My speciality is to add my poetry along with what I write, please do visit the below URL's and let me know what you think. Once again thanks a lot....
I hope that one day I can grow up to be an angel, though many would argue that comment here on HubPages, as of yet I haven't earned my wings. Thank you for saying so!
I'm glad you are able to fulfill your dream! The would would be a much happier place if everyone could do just that!
Will stop and visit you!
Thanks for stopping by!
As so many others have said, thanks for writing this hub. I'm new here and this helped put things into better perspective for me. Onwards and upwards!
Not a problem!! We are all here to help! Best of Luck to you!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Good stuff! Unfortunately, so many people are out for the "quick hit" and stop too early when they're not immediately rolling in dough. Yes, your points were spot on - and like anything - there is a buildup necessary. But that's always the way it is with residuals. Patience is the key and you have done a great job of explaining that. But like I said, too many of us (even me AT TIMES) lack the patience necessary to make our efforts pay off. So your hub will hopefully shed some light on this for a lot of people! Thanks again. Enjoyed your article.
Thanks for stopping by! Yes, I have been at times a little antsy when it comes to making money. The promises of so many "make money now!!" gets people thinking that payday is this week.
Some still aren't getting it... Even those that have read this Hub... Oh well, you can lead a horse to water... such is life.
Yes you CAN lead a horse to water. However, he still won't take the time to write a lot of quality articles! :)
I have just joined today and found your article very informative. I knew before I signed up that this is an investment of time and effort. I appreciate your honest encouragement to endure the long haul. I have spent the past six months looking for a job that hasn't manifested. If I'd known about this then, I might be a lot closer to my goal right now. Even so, if it takes six months to get to that point of earning some income, I am willing to take that chance. I just hope for the perseverance to see it through. Sweetsusieg, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us newbies! It is most helpful to orient us in the right direction.
Try to view it as an investment in your future. It definitely will take time, but if your in for the long haul, it will be worth it! When you get the chance take at look at some of my other Hubs, you'll see that I write whatever comes to mind.
Thanks for stopping by, looking forward to seeing some of your Hubs!
Beneficial Hub!!!!
The hub is fruitful, as it explained all the methods of earning money.The ad senses etc which are pointed out in hub is really interesting. The methodology explained in the hub pages for getting more and more viewership is incredibly valuable. Thanks a lot for sharing.
I'm glad you found it helpful! Thanks for stopping by!
insightful.
Great information... !! Keep posting. :)
This is my favorite 'Making Money On Hubpages' hub thus far. Informative, organized, and motivational!
Thanks Jenny!!
Thanks Tumba!!
Whoo-hoo!! Glad to be a fav!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Very useful. Thanks for writing it.
You are very welcome~!
awesome one rated it.check mines too
This hub is very helpful! Its great that you made a key point and that is that hub pages is not a get rich scheme and that it will take time and patience. So far i've written several hubs, and it really helps to write about what your interested in; which is a point I'd like to make here! Thank you for your insight! check out my hubs if u can and let me know what I can do better, your tips will be much appreciated.
This is a great hubs thank you for offering such great tips!
Very informative hub. Thanks.
Great hub with some great advice... really enjoyed it!
I have a big big problem...i dont have money to pay taxes in google,i dont know what i am doing right now...
daniel steve - Thanks!
rodrigur2 - Absolutely! I'm not an expert but will give yours a look-see!
barbergirl28 - Thanks! Glad you liked it..
bakero23 - I stopped by your page, as of yet you shouldn't have anything to worry about, you have no Hubs therefore no income. You don't have to worry until you make income. Before you sign up with Google you should write some good quality Hubs.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Thanks for sharing this hub ^_^it is very helpful..
You are most welcome!
Hi, I'm pretty knew here and I have a question:
Should I write several topics on one HUB or creat several Hubs for each topic?
Thank you very much.
I would have to say that is a matter of personal opinion, there is no right or wrong. I write because I occasionally have something to say, I usually try to cover it all in 1 Hub. I usually try to make good content, stay on topic and use at least 1000 words.
Best of Luck to you!! Welcome to HubPages!
Loved this Hub, so very true!!! The secret formula to success on HubPages is Time X Hubs = $$$
Absolutely True!! Thanks for stopping by!
Intresting....Sweetusieg
I m new i just want some friends help me in proply start my working
I m really confused
Great Hub! Thanks for taking the time to write it. It reminded me to take Hubpages seriously and to be patient. Keep Hubbing!
Sparksofgenius - This is the way it's done, making friends that is... Reading then commenting on Hubs, don't forget to make your way to the forums and answer section!
thinkgreen415 - Not a problem, I enjoyed writing it. Thanks!
Thank you both for stopping by!
Thanks Sweetusieg, It was useful your clear-cut info.
This article is fabulous Sweetsusieg! I am glad I ran across you. I am very encouraged by your words. You speak straightforward and easy to understand. It is nice to know that an article written several months and even years still draws traffic. Nice work, Thanks!
A great article that does help folks get the big idea of Hubpages!
There is so much to write about - it just takes time.
I think some of us would just rather be entertained than working hard at writing in our spare time. Others of us don't have much spare time, or have full time work and then family responsibilities that take the rest of it.
It's a dilemma, but that can be overcome by some planning, I think.
Keep on writing, all you writers out there!
I've only done 3 Hubs but I've made $16 from them with Adsense since I started last month. You need to let your friends & relatives know about your Hubs to start. Facebook, etc. Ask them to support you. Let them know you make your money from your links.
It helps to have more than one site. I just started a local online news site, sjmessenger.com and I direct traffic to my hubs from that also. In the last month I made up around $130 from that site, plus a few bucks from Hubpages. I expect that to grow exponentially. You've got to mix and match. Start a blog too. Be in more than one place.
Thanks Louis for your input! I checked out your sjmessenger site. very cool! Nice paper! I would love to do this in my area but I have no clue how to start up a website!!
I would say the amount of money people make on here differs greatly depending on the topics chosen, but it's great to hear that you are earning an income!!
Sweetsousie,thanks for this hub it is really useful for beginners like me.
I am a newcomer in hubpages and was wondering how to get started while I saw this valuable article of yours. I think its going to really help me in the long run.
Welcome to HubPages - both of you!! It seems to help just a little bit to know what is expected of you as a new writer, doesn't it?
Thanks for stopping by!
Dear sweetsusieg, you are really a sweet person. I'm new to Hubpages. Just 10 days. Thanks for your advices...I'll try to follow and stand here. Thanks again.
Pastor.Jeykishan
Thanks for advise ,i'm from Jamaica .I love to talk about football so i hope Hubpage will let me share my views about it.
I'm into it for the long run ,my problem i've sign up for Google adsense does U.S. tax plan apply to me .
This is great information. Thank you for sharing. Kind of inspiration as well. Good luck to you and all the Hubbers !! :)
The internet is a fun place, I just love how it brings out the best article writers online. You can just do your own thing, and see who likes what you wrote... Will be following you articles on making money with hubs
Thanks a lot for this wonderful hub with a lot of meaningful information. My workload in school never allowed me to continue after publishing 20 hubs, but once again I feel rejuvenated and promise myself to write a lot of good hubs in the coming 2011.
One more thing I would like to say, you might add onto your hub: Your incessant thanking to all the people who commented, you never thought that getting back and thanking all those who stopped by your hubs was unimportant; I DO feel that is also important for a good hubber. Wish you and your family a very happy new year!
Great job on this article. I really enjoyed it. Thank you for the information. Happy New Year!
Thanks for uploading such a wonderful article dear!
I really enjoyed reading it...
Belated Merry Christmas and Happy new Year..!
(Mikki)
alexmar - I too think the internet is a great place, there are a good many writers who may have never found their voice if it weren't for the internet! I feel included in that.
sriparna - I had no idea this Hub would do so well when I wrote it!.. The comments have went beyond anything I could have ever imagined! I love it, and I love hearing from people. It's good to know that I have given them even just a little bit of hope! Best of Luck to you in your writing endeavors!
primardie - I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you for the lovely compliment! Happy New Year to you as well!
Mike Willis - Thank you for reading!! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Here's to all of you! Raise a glass \~/ and toast to the New Year that we all find success here on HubPages!!
Sweetsusieg, this is great - very informative and I really enjoyed reading it. I just joined HP and didn't even realise you could make money....how nice! I think I'll concenrae on writting at the moment. Thank you very much for sharing, some gurus would have written an ebook and charge for such info! Happy New Year to you and all yours!!
great hub sweet, you have inspired me to write some good hubs with good content.
Keep comin' back, luv that :) Thanks for the encouragement, fellow Hubber!
The single most important thing you can do to make money with Hubpages is to write about topics where there are lots of commercial advertisers willing to spend. Why? Because the majority of money made by new members will come from Adsense. And Adsense payouts depend on the amount of money Advertisers will spend. The easiest way to do this is to pick your topic of interest and do a search in Google... if there are plenty of Ads in the right hand column then there is a good chance there are plenty of Advertisers.
janjesant - Thank you! When I first joined I only hoped that one day I would make money with my words. I truly felt that I had a few messages to put out to the world and felt that HubPages was just the ticket for me! I feel as though I have been welcomed with open arms by the community and hope that you will feel the same!
maheshpatwal - Thanks! Can't wait to see what you are going to put out!
Jenny Calendar - You are most welcome! Glad that I could be of service!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Thanks for the hub, very informational
I've been on here for a while but really needed the kick in the pants to start trying to earn real money with my hubs. I think I'll write more now and start trying harder in my free time, thanks Susie!
Suzan - Thanks for stopping by!
Jacob - If I was the romantic sort I could write a Hub on your picture (Avatar) alone! It says so much to me, well chosen (is it you?) Try to view it (rather than free time) as your second job, you want to earn income from your 2nd job don't you? It just happens to be a fun job! One that you like doing....
Best of Success to you both!
encouraging thanks
Thanks for writing this. I just spent a lot of time writing my first one. I have lots of other ideas so I hope it will pay off in the end.
thefinalword - your are most welcome!
spkellyo - Just keep writing!! Anything worth while takes time and effort.

Welcome to HubPages!! I'm glad you found us, I think you're going to enjoy things here!
Thanks for stopping by!
You have provided excellent advice in this article.
You are right. It takes a lot of hard work to make money online.
I write on Squidoo and I put countless hours in it.
Maria
Thank you Maria. Dedication and determination are also a part of it. Were you able to make any money from Squidoo? Blessings to you in 2011!
Thanks for stopping by.
slc334 - I'm terribly sorry I had to deny your comment.. It's not nice to put your own links on comments that AND my Hub is trying to encourage people to continue writing. I read yours.. well, it's very discouraging for newbies. That's not what I am trying to do here. So sorry.
I'm a newbie and I found that very informative and easy to understand. Thank you :-)
This was a nice hub. Very informative. Thank you
I think you did a great job on this hub. This hub helped me a lot.
I'm new hubber and I like this hub. Everything here is true. I'm learning english here and I can find some great information thanks to other hubbers and you:). Great job. I'm your fan from now.
great read thanks
Thnks for the ideas! I was reading Hubs for hints before publishing my first Hub. Glad I found your Hub first! Wish me luck, see you in the Hubs!

I'm new to Hubpages (just over a week ago). This was very helpful. And yes, I think it will take some time to figure it all out, but I'm a quick learner.
Thanks!
Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you found us! I'm glad that my Hub was useful for you. Best of Luck to you in your endeavors and Keep on Writing!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for the great tips! As a new "hubster" I appreciate it!
its amazing how I learn so much more from articles than FAQ pages ; ) thanks for this. I am newbie so its nice to get a better understanding of my hubpage.
Very useful hub, thanks for sharing!
As a newbie this is a wondeful article, thank you for writing it :)
do you have any back linking tricks
Radioguy - You are most welcome! Welcome to HubPages!
QFlaire - Welcome to HubPages! I think in the FAQ pages just the basics are give, then we writers break it down a little more. From what we've learned by doing.
Chillwilly - Thank You!
twilightnera - Glad you enjoyed it! Welcome to HubPages!
deepakkumaarr - I just back link to pages that are similar to the linking word. I try to keep my readers happy with NO tricks.
Thank you for stopping by and commenting!
Sweetsusieg Kudos to you.
Great Hub!! I am new to all of this and found it very helpful. FYI - I'm a part-time worker looking to make this a full time job when my twins start school, luckily I have a few years before that happens. In the meantime, I will follow your advice.
Very good hub. I'm new to hubpages, and you've answered a lot of my questions. I like your advice about keep writing. Thanks.
ezzy1512 - Thanks!
LyndaD -Looks like your getting off to a good start, for when you twins get into school!
luckycharmz - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm so glad I could help.
Just keep writing!
great info
Thanks!
That's a good piece, young lady. I have eamarked it so that I can check out your links at a later date. Thanks for some good info.
Hi thanx a lot. I am a new hubber and was looking for this kind of good hub. Itd a great job. I have read too many hubs and trying hard to increase my income fron adsense but in last 2 weeks i have earned nothing. Should i continue writing hubs or look for a new job?
@ Gail Anthony - Thank you, I appreciate the earmark as well!
@tanny15 - It will take some time to earn a decent income, the Hubs age and mature over time and those bring in viewers and with that hopefully income. If you are surviving on 'air' at this moment, then YES I would say get a job, and write in your free time.
I see you have 3 Hubs in 10 days, that is not going to bring you much income. I have over 100 Hubs and make varying amounts per day, some days are good some not. But whatever I make, it's money I didn't have to begin with.
HubPAges is not a get rich quick scheme. It's going to take time.
Thank you both for stopping by!
This hub is helpful and reassuring. Especially for new hubbers. Thank you for posting this hub. I like you advice in this article so much that I am going to follow you on hub pages.
Thanks! Glad you stopped by!
Terrific advice! As a (very) new hubber, I'm really grateful that I stumbled upon your hub. It's given me perspective and the basics for a plan. Getting excited to get going! Thanks!
Great post
Shannon - Glad you happened on my Hub! Hope my words help!
Welcome to HubPages!!
Syahbiz - Thanks!
I just signed up in hubpages a couple of weeks ago and have no idea how to get started. You hub gives me an important clue and I appreciate your help!
I have been doing hubs for a month now - find some are short and some long. Over 20 already. Ideas roll, but I cannot write full-time, so I do my best. Getting impressions is hard! Got a long way to go. Thanks for the encouragement.
Chr4u.com - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm sure you are going to have a great time!!
msresearch - You are most welcome!! Awesome!! 20 Hubs is doing good!... Best of luck to you!
Thank you both for stopping by!
I skimmed this fairly quickly but liked what I read. I only have 3 hubs but will start to write more. I am getting comments posted to my blog quite often and that does make me happy, it means people are visiting my page. I will definitely read this again and make the appropriate steps towards getting more traffic and writing more. I did receive my first check from Google a few weeks ago and although it was small it was huge to me and definitely has motivated me to put more effort towards my blogs. Thanks a million for all your tips, time to make some more $$$$ :0)
Amazing hub!
I really enjoyed reading this, and it was very well thought out and informing, thank you.
I liked this. It is encouraging and informative for new people like myself. I have read about keyword tool but must get a better understanding of it. Thanks.
Wow thank you for the useful information! I love what you said about "live your life and you will find things to write about". That's how I ended up here... I was putting away some clothes that fell down from my closet and it got me thinking about how out of style some of my things are... so I jumped online to do some research and to blog about my thoughts, and I found hubpages! I hope to run into you on my page!
Thanks for the wonderful info.
Very encouraging for new hubbers like me.
very useful?tks
newyorkcitygal, you've been with HubPages for 2 years? How long have you been away? Welcome back! My guess would be that you sort of forgot about HP and the check from google reminded you? That is the residual income I referred to...
Alexander M - Thanks!
tebo - Keyword is at the whim of the general population, I write what I want to and hope it connects with what the people want.
Cereal4two - Isn't it funny how things like that happen? That's how I get ideas, just doing regular stuff and it comes to me. It doesn't always end in a finished project, but at least I'm keeping my mind busy.
Johnnydowney- You are welcome!
cn220034584 - Thanks.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Thank you for writing this - as you say it isn't easy making money on Hubpages.
You are welcome! Best of luck to you!
Awesome Hub Sweetsusieg! As you know already, with Google just from this Hub alone and all the comments from fellow hubbers you have built up a ton of authority in the community. I agree with your every word and with just 2 Hubs I've actually seen a couple of bucks flow in. Making an investment in some time to learn about Google Trends and keyword tool is a must for those who want to succesfully hub full time. Like you said though Susie I will just keep writing!!! Thanks so much again.
Well Thank You!! Those are certainly encouraging words! I'd better be careful so my head doesn't get too swollen! LOL Glad to hear that you are seeing some money coming in! I have yet to figure out keyword and stuff like that. Personally I think it's a whim of the people. Of course there is the ever popular 'How to make money' but there are so many ideas on that, it would take a super special writer to get to the top of the page!
Thanks fot stopping by!
Thanks for the information - It's nice to know how others have started. I'll keep at it!
Followed you :)
Nice Hub. Just Joined HubPages and I have learned some very important tips from this hub. Thx for writing.
My hubbing style is unique and I have created an ID which is to answer different people's questions, so buzz me with one if you want to know about any particular thing :) (no matter what it is about, you'll get the perfect answer)
Wow Thank you so much for making this hub! It sure will help me out :).
@ Bethany - Thanks!
@ Let Me Help You - Welcome to HubPages!!
@ Sid - You are most welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
Thanks Susie, great article - Very helpful for a newbie such as myself. I look forward to reading some more of your hubs.
Glad you enjoyed it Max! Welcome to HubPages!! I have a variety of things that I have written about, so have fun!
you certainly have a gift Susie.. will follow you. I am also a newcomer,, this article is a great help. thanks
New on Hubpages, your information has been very useful.
Thank you!
Hi Susie
Thanks for your Advice, i will do my best
Cheers
Very informative article but please look and tell me if you have any suggestions for me and my hubs. I'm making a little money but not enough to really speak of yet. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
@ smalika - Welcome to HubPages! Thanks for the follow!!
@ Powerpoe1 - Thanks and welcome to HubPages!
@ Riob - You are welcome and Best of Luck to you!
@ malonge - As far as making money, I think a lot of it has to do with the whim of the public and what they are looking for. I checked out several of your Hubs, the ones I looked at, well they could use a bit more feeling in them. They seem... impersonal, like a short commercial on television. Your Niagara Falls Hub seemed pretty good.
I write about things that I know. Things that I personally have experienced. Maybe make them a bit longer.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Great information, tips and ideas. Voted up, useful and awesome. This will help many new Hubbers get off to a good start. Thanks.
This was very encouraging, I think I need to be patient and focus on writing more hubs other than thinking of making residual income. With time the money will start to trickle. Thanks for sharing.
Good information. I clue is to keep writing..so I will take your advice and do just that.
Great information, thanks again for the useful insight.
its helpful for me.as i am new.thanks.thanks.thanks.
@ Becky - Thanks!
@ speedbird - Yes, patience is the key! It will take some time.
@ Dianemae - Very Good! Just keep writing!
@ WalksThroughLife - You are most welcome!
@ mgglii - Welcome to HubPages! You are welcome!
Very informative and well written-a 10 from me
The Blog Master
Thanks Gary!! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the 10!!
I appreciated your article but clicked with Finding Nemo. A friend and I joke all the time when we feel discouraged or overwhelmed. We may only see each other in passing. We smile and move our arms saying, "Keep Swimming." That's really what it's all about.
LOL, that's great!! I love Dorie!! All you have to do is just keep swimming!!
Thanks for stopping by!!
Hi Sweetsusieg I already applied to my adsense account and Google banned it on tos violation and I am having this account. could you please help me out with a great idea that works for me.
and i would like to know how much did you earn . please don't mind me asking so and please do send me the details . its truly and humble request out of eagerness to find out how much did you make out of it
Very helpful, great hub, thanks for sharing :)
Great practical advice, thanks
anusru63- If Google banned you on a TOS, there is absolutely nothing I can do to help. I have no ideas for you on that, you will have to contact Google.
As you can see I have only been with HubPages 6 months. I have received payout 1 time. It is a slow process, to earn money takes time.
James - Thank you glad you enjoyed it!
getkat - Thanks! I am fairly practical! LOL
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Thank you! I'm just getting started and found this very helpful.
You are most welcome!!
Terrific advice, useful to all no matter if they are new or a veteran to hubpages. Great job.
Very informative and helpful. However as I am not completely familiar with some computer jargon (HTML for instance) or how to apply it,I will probably be back to enlist your help. :)
Hello Sweetsusieg,
Thanks for this article! I just started out and am already hooked. Thanks for going out of your way to help new comers; it is much appreciated! :)
Thank You very much for the article. This is one of the first articles I have read that did not start out with the writer telling the audience they could get rich quickly by writing online. This was very informative, especially for a fairly new hubber.
@ Koffeeklatch Gals- Thanks so much for stopping by! It's always nice to have a Elite member of HubPages stop and check in! It makes me feel like I'm doing something right!
@ supercookie - HTML still has me confused too! I just type what I want where I want it and if it works, then it's all good!
@ Woolf - Welcome to HubPages! I know you're gonna love it here, the people are so friendly.
@ smanty - I too have seen the articles that show a bazillion dollars a month as well, I try to be as honest as possible without misleading people. I don't want them coming back and yelling at me when it isn't happening. Welcome to Hubpages and Best of Luck to you!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Very simple and clear advice. K_I_S_S_ method for sure. I appreciate your words as a rookie on this site. I am just getting started and I appreciate the HOPE you install with your encouragement to us youngin's. Great JOB!!!
LOL @ the KISS reference!! Welcome to HubPages!! With your excitement and enthusiasm you are going to do GREAT!! It's tons of fun!!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Hi I read your hub and found it very helpful and useful especially since I am new at this. Thank you for the great tips.

@ Alaba Gbenga - To edit is fairly easy, just click on your Hub and towards the top you will see an edit button. Welcome to HubPages!!
@ imranhaider - Since I do not work for Google I cannot answer your question. This is something you have to contact them about. I'm sorry.
Thank you both for stopping by!
Very informative and easy to read. Although I only started to let people hear my ideas and thoughts the money side would be a bonus.I hope after time I can become as natural a fluent writer as you
Great Hub! Thanks for sharing!
tibulous - what a nice compliment! Thank you! As with anything new, it takes time to become confident in yourself, no matter what your chosen profession is. I try to keep a pin handy, should my head get to swelled!
LukeMason - You are most welcome! It was my pleasure.
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!
Thanks. Im new to blogging and just wrote my first blog so this helped!
Thanks for the post,
Google also likes hubpages, so if your article is carefully optimizered for google, affiliate marketing will become a breeze with Hubpages, and thats where some good money lies.
Great post. :)
This is great and educative. thanks for the idea.
It really great your hubpages, it is very useful. I will definitely follow it,

@ farmboyandyz - Welcome to HubPages!!
@ ZaneZenMaster - Yes this is true.
@ Benny01 - Glad you enjoyed it!
@ Pumba217 - Thanks!
@ mahmoud hammad - I'm glad you found it useful!

@ Fraiser - Not a problem, glad it helps!!
@ sam70 - Thank You!!
Glad you both stopped by and commented!
great stuff.. thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks, you have solved my all quarries regarding writing on hub.
All of them? Wow, I'm good!! LOL Just kidding...
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you so much for this informative article. You are obviously well versed on the subject. I look forward to reading more of your work. I will definitely follow your example. Thanks again.
Have a great day!
hey there,
it's so true about the part of making money through hubpages. You really need to put in effort and time into it. It's definitely not a get rich quick thing
Sweetsusieg, very informative hub that should make it easy for newcomers to online article writing to figure out what hubpages is all about.
For me I think one of the big plus points of hubpages is not the earnings but the ability to network. Invaluable in my opinion.
I think you appreciate this point as the depth of comment coverage that you provide is worthy of awe.
Great hub, lovely comments. Keep up the good work.
sweetsusieg, thank you very much for your advice on how to carry on with Hubpages. It has helped me alot
@ aimdoll - I'm not sure I am well versed, as things constantly change in the world of the Internet, but I am trying to keep up!
@ bryanps - Glad you 'got it'!!
@ Edward - I too Love the fact that I have made new friends and they are awesome! I get great help from those who came before me in the world of writing. The advice on this site is beyond anything I have ever discovered.
@ crystolite - So glad you were able to get help from this Hub!
Thank you all for stopping by and taking the time to comment!
Great hub with massive amounts of information. Thanks a lot, there's a whole bunch of stuff I never thought of and other things I'm looking at in a new light!
So glad you found it useful!! I'm glad I was able to help out a little bit.
Writing offers people the opportunity to earn income and with a little savvy it is possible to start earning right away and get paid weekly if not daily.
I have not heard that as of yet... Please do share!! Daily pay? Wow!! Yes, please share!! Even weekly would be great!
Good article with helpful tips! thanks
such a great article, and I loved all the info that you shared. I've been trying to turn into a fulltime hubber.
I love how you link writing on hub-pages to working at a job. To be honest, I am using hubpages as more of a hobby, and a way of recording some of the things I think about on a daily basis, but have set a target of writing up three hubs per week.
You mention in your article about using adsense and amazon. Would you recommend using both together or just staying with one?
Just about to go and read more of your work.
Again, thank you for the article, it has been very informative.
Good advice Thank You, just like all good things you have to work it. I was in the off-line fashion business it took years to build it up but it paid off :) the same thing holds to be true online...
@ Bella - You are welcome!!
@ writer83 - Being a full-time Hubber is lots of fun!!
@ kenoscully - Hobby's are great, there is nothing wrong with that! It's all up to you and what you want. I use both AdSense and Amazon, use anything as much as you can toward your advantage!! Amazon is for 'selling' things and AdSense is the ads that are already placed on your pages.
@ smartnet - Yes! It just takes time.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting...
This is one of the better Hubs I've read about making money. Thank you for a well thought out and written Hub!
hi great hub with great info
There is a lot of helpful information here, especially about reading and commenting and getting to know other Hubbers. I just wrote my first Hub and am excited to start the next. I wish I had read this first because I already applied for Google Adsense with only one Hub. Oh well... thanks again and keep writing!
Very helpful article for anyone who is just starting here. I've been signed up here for a while, but had so many irons in the fire at other sites, that I had to narrow it down to a few with high Alexa rankings and HubPages is right up there. Very cool! I hope to be doing more here and meeting more nice people like you. God bless!
Thank you. That was very insightful and educational. It is obvious that you took the time to do some research and relayed the information in an organized fashion,and
I appreceiate it. I hope to do this part time as a way to supplement income while I go back to school.
David
@ Apepperson - So glad you enjoyed it! I try to give 'something' in my work. So the person leaves with a decent understanding of what I wanted to say.
@ khmohsin - Thanks!
@ seul_78 - It shouldn't be a problem, it takes a couple of days for Google AdSense to approve, so in the mean time, just keep writing!!
@ jseven - I understand, as you get going you get more and more ideas, so you just keep on a forward motion. finally in order to get anything accomplished you have to stop and figure out where your making money at, and where your wasting time at!
@ zduckman - I'm not sure how much money you are looking to make from HubPages, but it is going to take some time to build income from HubPages. There are some fellow Hubbers who make darned good income!
Best of Luck to you!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
is this make sense if i use Adsense to make money from mu hubs ?
Thanks for this article. I found some answers to a few questions I had.
agraj.us - I'm not sure I understand your question.
alverp - Thanks, glad you were able to find some answers!
thank God i'm self employed
chikotel4real - LOL, me too!! (well here at HubPages)
This was a wonderful hub! Very informative. I'm going to attempt to be a full time hubber (starts to write can't stop won't stop) please check my hub @ http://www.vitaminbeats.com
like it...i'l follow your instructions...
Thanks alot
thanks Sweetsusieg but sometime things do not go in your favour even after the hard work of day and night:(
@ ctscott860 - Glad you liked my Hub! Way to go on the energy level! (For future reference some folks will not approve your comments when you have added a link into them)
@ newadamadamz - Okey dokey!! Best of Luck to you!
@ topmodelof2011 - You've only been at it for 6 days, I promise you it takes longer. It took me almost 3 weeks to even see a penny. At that point I had written over 25 Hubs. Don't give up!! Keep on writing!
Thank you all for stopping by!
Really useful thank you for the information in this hub
Thanks. Found Hub Pages less than a week ago and having the time of my life. I have always loved to write, just haven't had the place to do it. Your suggestions were helpful.
Useful hub with all the right points.
@ jill - Really glad you liked it!
@ nybride710 - Awesome!! Welcome to HubPages!! It is a great place to write..
@ SummerSurf - Thanks!
So glad you stopped by!!
Thanks, sweetsusieg.....this is an extremely encouraging hub! I am new to hubbing and this hub confirmed that I am already doing some of the right things....Thanks! I am certain you must have been exceptional as a teacher. :-)
LOL - Why thank you!! I always did want to be a teacher! As a Mom, I certainly do my share of teaching here at home! Glad to hear you are getting things going, best of luck to you!
Welcome to HubPages!!
Great hub for making money online using hubpages. Thanks for sharing you knowledge
This is one of the best how to's I have come across. You really helped me relax some of the pressure I have been imposing on myself here lately. I have been doing what you said almost exactly. It is very nice to know my efforts are on the right track and it will just take some time to get going.
You also have a great way of explaining things in a simple and soothing manner. I really do feel less pressure to make my hubs overnight hits now. You have a new follower =]
@ sppedbird - Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it!
@ DaNoblest - Excellent! That's the best thing to do, no pressure, it will come. Just breathe - in and out. If you begin to feel a little stuck, take a walk or drive. Just look around at your world. It will come.
Thank you both for stopping by!
Good hub! I'm just getting started, and it's nice to be able to read some tips. Thanks for the help!
So glad to have you as a fellow Hubber here! You have so much good advise and some good education for those who want to see there Hubs grow here, and earn a little too. Thanks it means allot!
Wow you deffinatly know what your talking about. Great hub, it helps to learn from other hub members thanks for sharing.
100 author score really backs up your credibility
thanks for all the tips, but all you really need is great content and a lot of it. Then you learn how to get it ranked in google and you are making money!
Thanks for your good spech . It's great to meet a successful hubber.
The fastest way to improve Alexa rank is to use www.alexage.com.
Their service was great and now my blog is in Alexa's top 50K.
Thanks for the advice and for outlining it as simply as possible. It's very helpful for someone who is new to the site and just starting to write hubs. I look forward to taking your advice and continuing to create more hubs. Thanks!
Thank you for answering my one final question! I'm glad you wrote a hub about earning money on HubPages. That benefited us all a whole bunch!
~Cici2hip4u
This is a good honest aproach to hub writing, thanks.
@ Christian H - Welcome to HubPages! Glad you found this helpful!
@ Amybradley - Than you for the lovely compliment!
@ howtosoftmod11 - You are most welcome.
@ xboxps3wow - Yes, you could do that, but it helps to get to know your co-workers as well. They can recommend your Hub to others to help give you that extra boost that is sometimes needed.
@ ridleyshook - I'm not sure what all of that means, but if it works for you, that is great!
@ weezywade22 - I'm glad you liked it, I tried to keep it as simple as possible. I'm a fairly smart person, but when I go to read something and have to pull out a dictionary, it just looses my interest.
@ Cici2hip4u - You are welcome! What was the question?
@ 110211 - So glad you liked it!
@ muttyman - Please, it is considered Bad form to leave links in the comment section, they will get deleted particularly when they have no bearing on the Hub or even the comment you put.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
I think the number of comments at the bottom of your hub says it all, Sweetsusieg. This is the clearest 'advice' hub I have read on HP so far.
And it looks like an awful lot of people agree with me.
Thank you so much
Angie (newbie!)
Angie - Yes there are an awful lot of comments. I guess that is good for me! Welcome to HubPages!!! So glad you could join us! I am very glad you enjoyed my Hub and truly hope it helps you.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Wow, thanks for the info!

@ridleyshook,
Alexa rank doesn't matter at all.. It won't give you traffic or effect your SEO
@ Goldenbible - You are welcome. Is "dbadbadba dot skiing-tips-and-tricks dot hom" a good thing?
@ xboxps3wow - Thanks for clarifying that! Personally I'd never heard of it, but things are changing all the time.
So if I try to add a like to just my general page where people can access all of my hubs, which link do I use? For example, what link would I use for Google Webmaster Tool? Or Google Analytics? You post encourages me. I love to write and could use the profit (who couldn't these days) but haven't had any luck at all so far. Thank you =)
I am not quite sure what you mean. You need to go to your 'my accounts' page, then to earnings, then sign up with Goggle from there. On HubPages you don't need to do anything other than apply and be accepted. Well, Google will send you your pub. number, then you copy and paste it onto your 'earnings' where it tells you to put your affiliate code. All the ads are placed by Google. This is one of the easiest sites to navigate for earnings.
You do the same for amazon, but with them you place your ads on the hubs in the boxes. You get to pick and choose what you want to 'sell' with amazon.
Hope this helps.
hey sweetsusieg,
I'm sure you really got to keep writing a lot of articles to keep the visitors in and earn some money. I think you are absolutely right in one of the comments that you got to write what people wanna read. I'm just curious with 139 hubs now, do you make a decent income? Do you have a hub for your earnings?
it helps
well written and great tips...thank you for great encouragement
I love that hubpages allows me to edit my work even after it's published. I hate typos and I'm always catching them and fixing them. I'm compulsive about it. It's also great to update when you learn new facts about the topics you've written on.
@ bryanps - Working on it, but not there yet. Some days are better than others on earnings, income varies. I haven't quite figured out which hub is a good earner yet.
@ hadg33 - Terrific
@ Bercton - Thank you!
@ SeptemberGray - I too love that I am allowed to edit my work, sometimes you get excited about publishing and hit publish before it is ready. Like mess up the spelling in the title (yep, that happened once) took me a couple weeks to figure that out! And yes, if you find out new information, it's great to be able to add it.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Hi Sweets, very informative hub for newbies, seven weeks here and I've only earned $5.00, but still working on it!
I thoroughly enjoy getting checks, well actually direct deposit from Google. If you enjoy writing, I can tell you from experience that there is a more sure and quicker way to make money just by writing.
Like HubPages, it is certainly no get rich quick scheme, but very straight forward and honest.
@ DIY - I try to look at it this way, it's $5.00 more than you had 5 weeks ago! Every little bit helps.
@ english - Awesome, glad you have been able to find another outlet for your creativity! I have a few irons in the fire as well. Some pay, some do not but they all allow me to get the word out! I am even able to post my work from here so that givee me a few more views.
Thanks for stopping by and Keep on Writing!
very good ,welcome to my hub
Very Fruitful information. I am going to follow them.
Thanks
great hub, very informative!
Excellent very informative and helpful,i'm new joined 2 weeks ago and it's taken me 2 weeks to pluck the courage to write.I like writing always have since school,but I didn't have the courage until now.But since reading your piece here my confidence has doubled thank you very much.
Hi Sweet Susieg!
I don't know if I am able to earn by using the 18 hubs I have published so far. Please have a look over my hubs and advice me.
nice activity
@ fullboz - Thanks
@ nancy - Best wishes
@ Arbsy - Glad you enjoyed it
@ Adaineds - Welcome to HubPages! Keep on writing!!
@ I will look at them, but I'm not a critic, just a writer.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting.
Thanks, good article!! Could you see my hubs (only have 3) and check out what´s missing. Thanks!!
Wonderful, informative and inspiring. Hopefully we all enjoy writing, so earning pennies from it is just the cherry on the top. I do enjoy writing, but I am poor, so hurry up google and give me a cherry!
Great hub, very informative and easy to understand. As a newbie, I will take onboard your advice. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Great post and very inspiring for a beginer like me. I'm wish I had more time for writing my hubs... But I guess it's just a matter of practice (and some natural talent).
This is great! I am about to publish now my first hub.. hopefully it will be a success.
Thank you for this wonderful information. As a new Hubber, it helps me a lot!
@ andres1977 - Write more! Keep on writing, don't stop at 3.
@ Steph - Cheers!! Here's to those cherry's!!
@ Klassy - Welcome to HubPages!
@ Marpi - Welcome to HubPages, if you have the opportunity during the day, take notes so when you do have the chance to sit down and write you'll be somewhat organized.
@ jans26 - Congrats on your first Hub!
@ Hyphenbird - Welcome to HubPages!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Thank you for the advice. This is a friendly neighborhood. Look forward to using the sage of a veteran.
Great overview of the "system". Many of us who have been here awhile 'know' most of these things, but you have defined them plainly. No wonder, your hub has hit the top spot.
I also applaud you for being so thoughtful in answering all of the comments and questions. I especially appreciate the parallels you drew (for those wanting to earn) with hubbing and a full time job.
This is one that's certainly worth bookmarking and reading over and again.
Loved this, just started my new hub and Your Post Helped a lot !
Its a shame this comment bar is all the way to the bottom, you have A LOT OF POSTS HAHA
Thank you very much for the information you have provided
Your info was really useful and encouraging. I only just signed up so I am just reading through so that I can get the picture before getting started. This sounds like its going to be great. Just the opportunity I have been looking for,
Great article !
Wow, talk about a lot of feedback. It is great to see a Hub that inspires both newbie and veteran alike. Thank you for a great Hub.
@ John - Well I don't know about being a sage veteran, but I try!
@ Rochelle - As a 'commenter' I know how it feels to make a comment and not have it recognized, you kind of feel as though you've wasted your time. Like the person who wrote it didn't care. In cases like that I think the person should just remove the comment box. (just a thought)
So glad you bookmarked it! It really makes a writer feel good to know these things!
@ Jokanovic - Welcome to HubPages!! Glad to hear you published a Hub, now you're on your way! Yes, there are a lot of comments. I'm waiting to see how many are allowed! LOL
@ snafu0312 - You are most welcome!
@ Helen - Welcome to HubPages, glad to have you aboard! I'm sure that you are going to just love it here, the people are GREAT!!
@ hattersmen - Thanks!
@ mecheshier - You are welcome. I hope that it gives a good insight for those just starting out on what to do.

I'm so glad you stopped by! I certainly hope that my words will be of some help to you!
Thank you for this! It's a perfect guide for getting started on hubpages!
Thanks! I'm not sure about perfect, but hopefully it is helpful!
Thank you for the useful information.
Thank you Sweetsusieg!!
I am new to hubpages and your hub caught my eye. I'm an avid reader and love writing, and I thought hubpages would be a great past time and hobby for me. Getting money while doing a hobby is a plus!
Thank for your tips, I'll take them to heart!
Indeed, this is a nice guide. I`m a newbie in hubs and I can use this to earn money. Thank you for sharing.
@ jlastevens - Welcome to HubPages!! Glad to have you aboard! You are going to love it here, we have it all, how to's, poetry, stories you name it we got it. With more to come I'm sure. Anytime a Hobby makes you money that is a good thing!

I'm new to HubPages...very helpful information:) Thank you.
nice hubs
@ healthymiss - Welcome to HubPages! I'm certain that you are going to enjoy it!
@ inranhaider - Thanks!
Thank you both for stopping by!
well I just asked similar question today because I need more people to get my message as I write them in hubs. Though I am published author of the book " it is time we truly know why Jesus wept" by N. K. David. I still need the hub community tp spread my news, make new friends, and relate with those that may share in my views.so I just have to learn the hub lesson.
I applied on google adsense with my my website of my profile and it was rejected.pls advice me on the right way to apply.
Very helpful. Thank you.
@ Davidkaluge - Let me ask you this, when you published your book, were there people waiting in droves at the publishers wanting to purchase your book, or did your Agent and Publisher have to advertise for you? How did you advertise your book? It's the same here on HubPages, you have to make friends, meet people, make yourself known on the question and answer pages as well as the forum. In turn you have to read others Hubs, make well thought out comments. Why? So the people reading them will want to visit your Hubs and see what you have to say. In this you will get more viewers more followers etc. So when you publish a new Hub, they will hopefully visit it and comment on it.
@ Arinze Hope - Well you only have 2 Hubs, have only been a member of HubPages for 9 days (Welcome!). Google wants you to have more stuff for people to read. My best advice keep writing! Then wait a few weeks and re-apply. Have a good 10 Hubs under your belt, get readers etc. Because you are out of the US it is going to take some time. You may want to look up the policies on those who apply from out of the US.
@ tillsontitan - Glad you liked it!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
I think you hit the ball out the park on this one we need more people who are willing to share thank you so much.

Thanks for this i'm just starting out with hubpages so this has been very useful :)
@ dickerson23 - Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!
@ patsposts - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you are here!
Thank you for stopping by!
Great article, but I have one questions, which I asked earlier, but that you might know the answer to: I know it is free to sign up for google analytics, but does it continue to be a free service? I haven't been able to find the answer.
Your article was also extremely informative, thank -you for the info!
"How to get started earning money in HubPages?"
The hub is rich in content, full in reference to the context, beautiful in style, and useful in maintaining the dignity of mankind by throwing light as to how a person can earn lawful and legitimate income by using the God given faculties and potential to him.
Actions are to be adjudged by the motives behind them. When a Huber has the intention to share his knowledge and experience, art and skill, ups and downs with others he is doing a service not only to himself but also to fellow human beings. The Pen and all that it writes are the great favours of the Creator on mankind. These are the tools of expression whereby problems are identified, solutions are found, and wrongs are set right. It is the truth in the words of a writer that shines and attracts others and brings blessings when acted upon. It is the falsehood that darkens and brings condemnation sooner or later when detected. In this world we are in need of each other and the faculties given to us are such that fulfil such needs. Richness and poverty both are trials. In the former it is to be seen as to whether the affluent is thankful to God and uses his wealth on the deprived without obligation and in poverty it is to be seen whether the destitute observes patience and perseverance against all odd situations and maintains dignity by working hard and leaving no stone unturned to avoid begging and become able to earn honorable earning for himself and his children. Poverty is not merely in money it is all sorts of deprivation. Hubers are to be congratulated who educate others by their knowledge and wisdom. What is the lot that does come at its appointed time it is our impatience that makes us dejected. When the appointed time comes many gates become open and one is astonished as to how it happened. One must go on striving hard honestly and fairly without causing any harm, injury or insult to other fellow human beings and the said time does come in everybody's life time. Never loose hope nor become dejected. Lives of great men all remind us that they worked while others slept.
The hub is "up" by all standards. The proof is that co-hubers have appreciated it and many many will go on appreciating. This is also proof of sincerity with which the huber has written the hub.
May God bless all.
thank you for sharing valuable information and for giving us newbies inspiration. God bless you. I Wish you more success.
Great hub and encouraging to all. Thanks!
I'm taking every bit of advice that you have given! Thank you so much for the inspiration! I joined hp on March 1st. 3 articles and 3 days later I have around 100 views! I'm excited about that!
@ thoughtfulgirl2 - As of yet I have not been charged for Google Analytics so for the moment I am going to say no you are not charged. In the future? Who knows?
@ munirahmadmughal - Well thank you for your kind review of my Hub! I surely do appreciate your kind words as well. May God Bless you as well!
@ glorgeousmom - You are most welcome! I was happy to do so. Welcome to HubPages - Blessings to you as well!
@ joyfuldesigns - Thank you, I'm happy to be able to help where I can!
@ craigarthur - That first 100 is exciting isn't it? I do remember the great feelings as I received comments and STILL do!! I get excited when I open my e-mail every morning anticipating comments that I may have received during the night! I love that I have readers and people who are willing to break through their normal shyness just to say 'Hello'.
Thank you all for stopping by and Keep on Writing!!
Thanks for the information. I'm new at hubpages.
You are welcome! And Welcome to HubPages!!
Yes absolutely right pls keep writing
www.ezineseo.com
i love your layout....mine never looks so good. I'll have to take a few cues from you!
Thanks.....
I have read many articles on this topic but the information you have provided is quite good and valuable.
Thanks
@Sweetsusieg
How did you do to make this Hub of the Best Hub on HubPages, please help me step by step. Thank you!
thanks for your hub..your are doing very well .. i am new hubber and ur hub was very useful to me.. and once again thankssss..
nice tips
Thank you so much for that valuable information. I am new here and I am still trying to understand and study every information i get from other Hubbers. And I will do my best to be able to use every information you shared. Thanks and more power!
@ nadrahan - Thanks, I'm not sure why you put a web page on here though.
@ Hunter - Thanks! I try to break it up a bit and not use a hole lot of bold, unless I feel it is really important to read. For my eyes too much bold causes blur.
@ jennifer - Thanks, I'm so glad I could help!
@ MBDungo - As far as making it to the best of the best, I have no idea how that happened. This is something that comes with time. We all have our own style of writing and if I do it for you step by step it would be my style, not yours. This you will have to learn on your own, just as I did. I'm sorry.
@ inranhalder - you are welcome (haven't I seen you here before? hehehe)
@ ilovearkin - You are welcome, I'm glad that I could help!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting, Keep on writing!
Awesome information, it really opens up my mind on hubpages. Thanks for the post!
Glad I could be of some help!
Keep on writing!
I enjoyed reading your hub and the responses as well.
Thank you for taking time to comment on the responses meaning you are a very caring person.
Well I try! I figure if people take the time to read and comment, the least I can do is respond to them, and let them know that I did read what they have to say!

Really insightful hub xx
Cool hub Sweetsusieg. I've only been a member for about 5 hours now so still working my way around the site. :) Thanks for taking the time to write this.
Great tips. Sweetsusieg. I really like your spirit. I have just started writing a few hubs and just got a comment. I am very excited about this: someone is reading my articles.
@ Ddraigcoch - Thanks!!
@ bcwdesign - Welcome to HubPages!!! So glad that your taking time to navigate the site!!

Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!
Thank you for such a great informational hub for a new hubber. I read your article because liked your advice. It was very helpful to me. Especially the tips to remember to proof and do your research. I do not really care about making money and I can't believe they pay you for this because it is like a free library of information. You took such time and this shows your exemplary skills. I wanted to thank you!
Great hub. I have again read it out to take some reference.
Thanks
Very useful reading from your hub.
@ RealHousewife - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm so glad I was able to help you! There are so many aspects of HubPages that I just LOVE!! With your enthusiasm you will come to love it here as well!
@ jennifercriston - LOL, Well thank you!! So glad you came back!
@ crystolite - Thank you... once again!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!
Oh and Sweetsuieg - I also was afraid to leave a comment on your karma hub:-) haha! I liked it and think it is VERY true though:-). We reap what we sow!
A big vote up !
This is a really informative, and well written Hub.
Hi. Thank you for the advice, as a newcomer it really encoruages me.
@ RealHousewife - LOL, I wondered why people didn't leave comments on that Hub!! How funny!
@ debbiesdailyviews - Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it!
@ careermom09 - Welcome to HubPages!! This really is a greand place to open up as a writer!!
Best to all of you and thanks for stopping by!
Having participated in Hub Camp in New York, I met people who actually made enough money (through Hubpages) to support themselves, so it is doable. Thanks for the hub: it is inspiring and it gives a direction for new hubbers like myself. Even though I registered a while ago, I started writing hubs this February, and I am planning to continue using your advices.
Great Hub... Thank you.
I just published my first Hub and this is good advice. Thanks!
@ katenka_lalo - welcome back!! Glad my words could be of some help to get you going!
@ algiles - Thank you and your welcome!
@ Emmeaki - Welcome to HubPages!!
Thank you all for stopping by and keep on writing!!
how much money have you made
It's not that I don't want to tell, but I've made payout once and am 3/4 of the way to my second payout. I can't complain. It's not fast but it's there nonetheless.
Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks Sweetsusieg.
You created a well done hub that is realistic and full of information. You give great tips, and although I feel like there is so much to learn, you made things easier for me. Thanks a bunch.
It seems that there is always something new to learn doesn't it? LOL I'm so glad you were able to use some of my information!
Keep on writing!!
Thanks for writing such an encouraging hub. I am new to hubpages and enjoyed reading and learning.
Welcome to Hubpages!!! So glad you joined us here! You are most welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed it!!
Keep on writing!
Great Hub, I just joined myself. I notice it didn't take you long (7 months) to come this far. Looks like you got the hang of this right away! Keep up the great work.
Well I will say out of the 7 months I have put in a good 4 1/2 months of writing daily. Being on here and putting forth a good effort of writing one Hub per day for a long time. Then I had to take a break at Christmas time to make gifts for my family. I still was on here answering comments and such, reading others' Hubs and participating in the forums too. So even if I didn't write, I still kept busy on here.
I've chosen to make it full time, but that was my choice. Not everyone gets that luxury.
Thanks for stopping by!
This was a really great introduction for me. I'm just coming into Hub Pages and I need all the support and encouragement there is.
So glad you joined us here at HubPages!! It really is a great place to get your feet wet in the world of writing!
Best of Luck to you!!
Very helpful hub, thanks!
Thanks. Its raising my motivation to keep writing.
Thanks to you. your hub have really inspired me.
@ inbo5599 - You are welcome!
Azik Sparx - Awesome!! Glad to hear it!
@ ubalildon - how sweet of you to say that...
Thank you all for stopping by - Keep on writing!!
Great Hub. I didn't join HubPages for the money. But, if a couple bucks end up in my account from google ads, then, that's cool with me!
thanks so much. its my first day on hubpages.. and im still getting the hang of it .. it really helped thanks
Don't have a job? Start writing on Hubpages and Squidoo and at least maybe make some money!
@ TheMusiconomy - originally I didn't either, but when I started making a few pennies, I got excited at the prospect of it!
@ trishoxen - Welcome to HubPages!! You're gonna love it here!!
@ Angela Rosas - I'm not sure about your comment.. but ok...
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
thank you for the advise :)
Not a problem, glad I could help!
Thank you so much for the great advice!!!
Dear Sweetsusieg
I don't beleive that we can earn more from adsense. We can earn if we have high traffice portal. I don't know much more i just to learn. Could You Please guide me
I just started tonight and I must say this was a lot of help. Thank you for all of the links that may help to give me a chance to get started.
wow - very well written hub - was very useful - thanks for the detailed advice :-)
helpful
how i can increase my Googleadsense income through Hubpages?
Thanks for the advice, I'm a new hubber, and this was really helpful.
Great hub thanks for your thoughtful tips
This Hub is one of the best that I have read. These are the most encouraging words for many people who need a little push and patience, if unemployed or seeking part time work. You have shared unselfishly and you will truly be blessed. I just happened up on this Hub by accident. Keep up the good work.
@ Ludivine - You are most welcome!
@ anyl - At the beginning of this Hub there is a link to the learning center, you should probably start there.
@ mikesssb - I'm so glad you were able to be helped!
@ mygrants - Not a problem just trying to help out!
@ mdmomenin - Thanks!
@ ewu341 - In the upper right hand corner of this page you will see 'help' click on that, it's a very good place to start! Or towards the top of this Hub - The learning Center, both places have lots of answers!
@ latilock123 - Welcome to HubPages! I'm so glad I could be of help to you!
@ Cute Teddy Bear - Thanks so much!
Celesta - Well thank you!! Not sure how you found me but I'm glad you did!!
Thank you all for stopping by and taking the time to comment!!
Thanks for the information.
Am new on hub pages and your article have really inspired me. keep it up.
@ LaSundas - You are most welcome!
@ steven - Welcome to HubPages! Keep on writing!!
Thank you both for stopping by!
Really you are a great hubber. Will you share me how to add useful pages inside my hub page?
Thanks so much for this is my first time even joining a blog site much less writing a blog and thanks to this hub I feel as though i just saved my self weeks of learning lol. I'm really excited about this journy I'm going to have and I have alot to talk about. Again Thank you very much.
@ sasikrishna - You've been here way longer than I have... I need to be asking you the questions!! LOL
@ Mr.Rose25 - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm sure that you will enjoy your journey!!! Please be careful in what you write, this is not really a blog site. It is a site where people come to find useful information. So make sure when you are writing you want to make sure you give the reader information.
Thanks for stopping by!
good info thanks
Indeed ABC of Hubpages! Great article! Thank you.
This is a great starting guide for new hubbers!
Thanks for these good tips.
Thanks for the info... First one to comment on my article gets a kiss from my dog, Peaches.
Very well presented. I totally agree with your mantra of Just Keep Writing. People get obsessed about traffic figures and earnings and don't pay attention to the main deal. Their Articles!!!
@ jacques.gim - No, thank you!
@ lemmyC - LOL - you got it!! BTW love the name, great play on words!
@ loseweightmama - Thanks! Feel free to pass it along to those who need a helping hand!
@ SUSANJK - You are welcome!
@ RGAldriedge - Gotta love them doggie kisses!
@ cashmere - This is so true! A lot of people also misunderstand, they think if one Hub is written they should be raking in the Big Bucks... Heck, I have 144 and am still waiting for the big bucks!! It's coming, slowly, but it's coming.
Thank you all for taking the time to stop by and comment!
This is the perfect information for us newbies. I'm so glad I found this site! Actually I signed up 3 months ago and didn't really know what Hubpages could do for me. I never returned until this week. I saw it in my Favorites and clicked on it. Then I remembered signing up. It was when I first started blogging. I'm so excited to be here. This is good writing experience for me!
It is so true that you have to invest time and effort into making money on hubpages. It may seem like a daunting task but the time you put into creating articles that are popular will pay off in the long run.

Thanks for your advice. There a lot of good things you shares.
Thank you. I'm a new hubber and I am looking for a job for so many months. It's getting so frustrated. I finally discovered HubPages on Monster.com and I read a little about it. I thought it was too good to be true. I've joined a couple of days ago and I have posted 9 hubs so far. My hubscore is gradually increasing. I already have advertisements. I know it takes a while to earn an income, and I will continue to work hard because you and so many hubbers are proof that hard word on HubPages certainly do pay off. Thank you for this.
Good advice. To the point. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent Hub...Sweetsusieg Thank you so much for sharing this information with us...
@ ddkrharris - Welcome Back!! I'm so glad you were able to find it useful!
@ editorsupremo - I've certainly have had a great time here in the last 7 months! So it's a "job that you like", a win-win situation for me!
@ sokhom2007 - You are welcome, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
@ Thewrongfish - You've heard the saying "Don't quit you day job"? Please don't depend on HubPages to be your sole income! It takes a long time to build a decent income here.
@ pcdriverupdate - Thanks! I write it the way I see it!
@ Bilalnr - You are welcome! So glad you stopped by this Hub too!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Thanks Sweetsusieg, you really are an inspiration. I find myself writing and updating on hubpages and then drift off again and back...you know on and off thing simply because I am not sure I can truly make any money here but like you said, it takes patience. I think I'm ready to give it all it takes, need your support though....what do you think? Good job, keep it up!
Never give up!! You have 9 months here at HubPages! Just keep writing!! Get yourself more Hubs, you've already got some great titles... write more! Lots more!
Thanks for stopping by!
Excellent and informative hub. I just joined hubpages and yours is the first hub I visited, it is very informative for a newbie like me. I joined basically because I felt I have a lot to share from my experience in various fields of work and play. I also thought earning a few extra nickles sharing your experiences was a good idea. But I will tell you that I will need help and guidance from people like yourself to do my job well and with a minimum of mistakes. I hope we can be good friends. And Good Hub with a capital G and H.
Great hub with really useful information!
Thanks for the tips!
@ leoin_person - Welcome to HubPages! So glad you liked this Hub! There are a lot of good Hubbers here on HubPages too! Lots of Hubs with lots of good information. Of course the 2 nickles are great too!!
@ Bizziebee - Thanks!
@ janeaustengirl - You are most welcome!
Thanks for stopping by and just keep writing!
I like your analogy of HubPages being a job. Although I have an online business that is my first priority for time, writing is what I do whenever I can. I look at it as a second income stream that will build up over time. If I don't write and keep trying to improve, the income will not keep building up.
I really appreciate energy you put in writing this article. I will give a shot writing for hubpages.
Thanks for making it so simple and easy to both read and understand.
Nice relevant article.. Thanks
I just like the exercise of taxing my brain again by writing. If I make a little money then thats a bouns
it is really a good article.thanks for sharing.
@ WannaB Writer - nothing wrong with being a part timer! You do what you can. We all combined are what makes HubPages the great place that it is.
@ Vancouver Web Design - Thanks! I try to put as much of myself into my writing as possible.
@ aka-dj - You are most welcome!
@ ozcam - Awesome!! Exercise away!
@ pas cher air max tn - You are welcome, so glad you enjoyed!

ok..this is good details
@ Rafick - Yes it surely does!
@ nagu - Short but sweet. Thanks
Thank you both for stopping by!
Sweetsusieg, Hi its me again. Would it be possible for you to take a look at mu hub Foodie's_Corner and give me some tips. Will appreciate any help.
Thank you.
Susie, I love this hub, for as a new comer to hubbing your hub provided the basic information that I needed to get started in the world of hubbing. Thanks.

A very helpful and inspiring hub. Thanks.
@ arifahzin - Not a problem
@ Sun Pen 50 - So glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Hi sweetsusieg
Thanks for publishing such an informative, easy to read article, to help us newbie Hubbers find our feet. As you point out, HubPages Learning Center is replete with helpful information, and I'm reading it as fast as I can! But it's like the old days of going to the library to research stuff isn't it? You know that all the information you're looking for is in there, but as you enter the room, it's so much nicer to receive a smile, a friendly greeting, and some tips on 'best practice'. That's how your hub felt to me as I read through it. So 'Hi' again to you - and thanks again.
Awww, thank you! That is a very lovely compliment! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
ya as a new comer..this hub is really useful..!! and what i have noticed is your attitude..!! Love your attitude sweetsusieg..because..you have spend your time to reply back to all your comments and that tells you why you are rewarded by Google.!!
Well Google needs to see this so they can reward me some more!! All joking aside, thank you so much for stopping by to comment and Welcome to HubPages!
I just want to say that I hope I never break both my arms so that I can keep writing.
Great Hub.
LOL - Well me too!! Thanks for the laugh!
Thank you for this hub it has been helpful. I am new to this website so I am currently not too sure about what I am doing.
You are very welcome! I'm glad that I could help out! Give it a little time, it will come.. Just keep reading, learning and writing.
I don't regret joining Hubpages. I've earned hundreds of dollars since joining. (I'm not bragging, just encouraging anyone who is so inclined to give writing on the site a try.)
HubPages has brought me into a world of my own as well!! I enjoy that I am making money via my words.. Glad to hear that it is working for you!!

Great advice for both new and old hubbers. Its always great to gain knowledge by learning something new. I really learnt a lot from reading your article. I most especially loved your advice on keep writing. Afterall is that not a reason for the existence for Hubpages? To share our love for writing with other fellow hubbers ;-0)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it and learned something new! We tend to become stagnate if we don't continue learning..
Thanks for interesting hub. Actually you made your point clear and it is very informative to me as a new hubber

am a new hubber and your hub have really inspired and encouraged me to write more. i'd love to be a fan of yours.
I just started using HubPages and Adsense, regardless if I make money , I never thought blogging would be this much fun and relief from stress. I enjoyed reading your tips on how to make it all work, so for that I thank you and I will def. follow you.
By the number of comments on this hub, I can tell you are successful at what you do. Your article is good. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on how to write a good hub.
Nice sugestion.
Great Article, mom !!

great work
Do you have to be older than 18?
Rebekah - Yes you need to be 18 to write on HubPages. It's just their policy.
thanks for the tips - I haven't done much since I joined but now have to get down to it.
You are most welcome!! Now... get to writing!!
Thank you so much for this Hub... it's one of the first that I read when I joined Hubpages a few weeks ago.
If your hubs can answer the question "What can you do for me?" Then your on the right track with adsense. People like to get answers and they will click on the solutions.
School Loan Consolidations (how can I pay less for these loans?), Recipes for easy dinners. (how can I cook a quick easy dinner?)
Great hub Sweetsusieg. Keep it coming!
@ AlyzaLewis - Thank you for your kind words - I'm so glad that you returned to give comment!
@ eslir - Correct! Yes, that is a really good way to look at this! Thank you for your input!
Glad you both stopped by!!
Excellent Content. Is Google Adsense free to use (I know that it's free to sign up)? I only wrote two hubs so far. I am about to write another after posting this comment. Question: Based on your experience, is it better to write longer articles (over 1000 words) or shorter ones(less than 750 words) or does it even matter? Thanks.
I found your hub a great info. You use easy English word for this hub, so many one who are not proper English skill, they are understand it easily. Overall Thanks you so much
great hub im just learning here on hubpages - useful info.
Excellent hub. I learned a lot from your content. I'm new to hubpages and I only have 1 hub so far. I will create more hubs so I can apply for google adsense. :)
A hub with full of insight. Thanks for it. I am very happy to join this site. Little bit of time constraint is there but I'll still continue with it and hope to be successful.
Hi ,
Gosh I thought I was never going to come to the end of these comments. I can see how there are so many though.
I am bookmarking this one.
Take care
Eiddwen.
I like this hub. Thanks for the tips.
thank you very much for this hub. it helped a lot. :)
@ cjsolutions - Personally I believe that a Hub does better with more words. If you make a Hub with 300 words you are not telling your readers a whole lot, they are going to get mad and not come back. So to answer your quest YES, the amount of words does matter, NEVER less that 500....
@ ltstajul - Well I have an advantage of using the English word, I was born where it is used all the time, although by some things I've heard people say, it would make you wonder!
@ savannahbree10 - Welcome to HubPages!!
@ gl0bal_experts - Personally I'd wait until I had 5 or 10 before applying..
@ shampa sadhya - Most just do it in their spare time, this way they aren't pressured into being creative.
@ Eiddwen - There are a lot aren't their?
@ TajSingh - Thanks! Glad I could help!
@ Kenny Jay - So glad you enjoyed it and I am happy that it helped!!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
This is GREAT advice! I've been writing for HubPages a little over three weeks now, and am trying to soak up whatever information I can to make this a success. I love to write, and hope to be able to build a writing career here. Thanks so much for posting!
Thanks! I'm so glad you joined HubPages and are enjoying as well! Best of Luck to you and as always.... Keep on writing!!
hi, i just joined hub pages a few hours ago, your article was very useful, I was quite confused but you helped out! thanks again and goodluck!
Sweetsusieg how much have u earned through hub pages?
You have given me the support I need to keep writing. My husband says the $1.75 I've earned is proof that I'm wasting my time. I certainly hope that in time I earn at least one check, but if not, I believe that writing is never a waste of time. Wish me luck!
Write, write and links and links.
@ Maltese-er - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad I could help you out!
@ lousha - Well now that is rather private doncha think?
@ Mary Contrary - When i made the first dollar my husband was a little shocked but told me not to spend it all in one place... He's not laughing any more!! Best of Luck to you!!
@ Rudra - You got it!!!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
Thanks. I had a friend who is 16 wantsing to know.
Lucky me... one of the first pages I read! Thank you for this insightful article! Looking forward to start my first Hubs. I blogged for some time a few years back and had many followers. Life turned and I had to quit. Now I'm wanting to get back into it and see if I can make some money as well! (don't look at my first Hub.. it was a quickie to see how the site worked!)
Thanks again!
Great hub!:) Thanks a lot! :)
@ SierrazaPhotog - I'm glad I got to be one of the first Hubs you've read! Of you've written before I'm sure you do just fine now. Welcome to HubPages!!
@ naresh ramini - Thank you!
Thank you both for stopping by!
This article is excellent. i recommend it for most of us that is new here. With this your article i will get started. Thanks for sharing it with us.
You are very welcome!! Thank you for reading!!
Hello there, its today I joined the website and by chance I happen to see your hub and the first hub I read when I logged in. It is very interesting and thank you for sharing it so honestly with everyone. Right now (1.02am) for me its so late to write. I will get started as soon as possible. And wish me luck.
Keep on writing. Thank you.
Well then I am glad you found me... I hope that my hub was able to help you some. Welcome to HubPages, I'm sure you're going to LOVE it!!
I'm an online blogger and it's nice to not only read more about the same topic but refresh and reaffirm what I'm already doing.
Whew - sometimes it can be overwhelming!
Yes, it's always good to have confirmation that you are doing is good!! Best of Luck to you... It will be fine!
That's great advice, Thank you.
Great hub! Thanks for the advice! :)

great achievements...can I ask how much you are getting from adsense?
Thanks!
Waht can I say that hasn't been said before... This is great advice. Keep on writing, that seems to be the key. Thanks for this hub :D
I'm one writer who has been looking for a way to earn some money online. I stumbled on hubpages a few hours ago and I joined them immediately.This article is a real tutorial cum motivational. To say you're really good is an understatement; and of course the number of comments one has to scroll through is a glaring evidence. I'll want you to be my mentor.From time to time please go through my hub and show me how I can improve on it. Thanks
@ CWanamaker - Thanks for stopping by! So glad you liked it.
@ Saloca - You are most welcome!
@ Vinay - It varies from day to day, some days are better than others. Each article/hub pay differently.
@ DavitosanX - Yep, just keep on writing!!
@ Joe Sunday - Well thank you for the lovely compliment! Welcome to HubPages!
Thank you all for stopping by!
I know many people are earning money with it but I like your style to tell us how to earn money. Thanks.
Well thank you! I try not to sugar coat it!! People deal with the truth much easier than fabrications.
Very nice tips indeed. Great comments by people.
This is great information! I am out of work and a new hubber. I just started a couple of days ago and have been working hard at it.....still have a LOT to learn! I plan on following you a lot as I find it very confusing figuring out how to link. Thanks for the tips
"Look at HubPages as being a new job. What do you do at a new job"
Hub pages is exactly what it is-a full time job, and for very small pay check too. What do you do when you get job like that? I personally look for another one.
I think schooling is a cheap way to learn how to write well,by the sound of it this scheme is'nt to good as any site that takes up your time as a full job does should then pay as well as a full time job does&come with the added benefits of sick pay&holiday leave&so on.Why is it if people work on projects for others they can only hope to do well¬ be guaranteed to do well cause a job can also offer you this for any talents that you may have??? This should by rights at least pay you a minimum wage of around $800 these days like a full time job does(jobs all pays this amount)&you will have already considerably contributed to their profits&KPI targets just by being equipped with a computer.I'm used to hearing all about scams&this is just another one!!!! Sooooooo much of your time&efforts for a measly few bucks a month if you are that lucky cause I bet all of you are nearly broke for buying certain things you'll be needing to write like a pro(&in no time at all!!!,hahahaha)by now.I've heard how a few ways of making money out of you is so easy for a scammer to do&how much enjoyment they have from passing your information onto sooooo many other scammers for future profiteering&the funny thing is that they expect you to keep coming up with more money.Oh yeah-BTW-have you bought many writng c.d's or other materials just so you too can write like a pro-what a joke!!!!
Thank you for the great info Sweetsusieg. I just wish I am as good as you. I am starting a new hub and I only have one for now. I will continue reading other hubs to find more ideas and hope that this could be the start of my writing career, LOL. God Bless.
Thank you so much for writing this! Everything is so confusing when you're just getting started! This hub lays it all out there for ya! I got my question answered!
Honestly, Richard, why even come onto hub pages if you think it is such a scam. Obviously you have problems making money. Otherwise you wouldn't have to look up how to make money. What a poor pathetic excuse for a man.
@ rudra - Thanks!
@ pbenigo - Best of Luck you you, you might want to look at my 'How to make money - Opportunity" Hub to give you a few more ideas as well.
@ paintcontractor - I'm sorry you feel that way.
@ Richard - I am truly sorry that you are feeling the way you are. Personally I have not had to purchase any CD's on how to write like a pro, but I will take that as a compliment. I learned how to write the old fashioned way, in school. There are truly no guarantees in life at anything, even outside employment. Most places have a 'at will employment' which means you can be let go for any reason. At least here you are your own boss, you get to control what you write.
@ benchjie_a - It will just take time and you will do just fine! Welcome to HubPages! Best of Luck to you!!
@ CRJohnson - LOL So glad I could answer your question! Exciting as well isn't it? Best of Luck to you in all of your endeavors!
Thank you all for stopping by! Keep on writing!
SaraStrange - Please be nice on my comments, I surely do appreciate your defense of me though!
Thank you for writing this. I'm brand new to writing Hubs and am thoroughly enjoying myself so far. I have been writing every day for years, but just for my own enjoyment. I'm finally stepping out and sharing my thoughts with others. Your article was very informative for a newbie like me. I appreciate your insights!
Good tips you have here.
Very Informative hub for baby hubbers like me... thanks a lot
@ seekingmeme - I'm so glad you were able to find some help in here! Stepping out of our comfort zone is a little difficult, but I am confident you can do it!
@ Robert_Truitt1 - Thanks!
@ deadlyking - You are most welcome!!
Thank you all for stopping by and for you new hubbers Welcome to HubPages!!
awesome subject.Hub is motivating
Thanks!!
Sweetsusie thank you for writing this, I am brand new to hubpages and there is so much I am trying to understand. This was very encouraging, I have been writing since high school, and I have always enjoyed it. I hope you get a chance to view my hub, I only have two, but I just started two days ago, lol. Thank you again for this it was great.
Jake so glad you joined us here at HubPages!! I'm also happy that you found my hub helpful. Best of luck to you and Keep on Writing!!
This is the first time I've heard of hub pages but I think I may have found the answer to making money on the web. It's one of those... Did I really miss that, is it really that easy?
Thank you for writing this hub. I'm new and earning money certainly motivates but more importantly, I feel I've tapped into an interest that needs exploring - writing. Your Hub was so helpful.
@ pennyroll- Easy? yes. Fast? not necessarily. There are various sites around the web that you can all tie into together, using links. It is time consuming I will admit that. But once you figure things out and get on a roll then a pattern begins to set itself making it less difficult. And yes it is work.
@ dukeny21 - I'm so glad you likd my hub! It never hurts to be able to earn from doing what you love!
Thank you both for stopping by and Keep on writing!!
Sweetsusieg,
Thank you for your very informative hub. I'm learning a lot of things from it. As you can see, I am new to HubPages. How long did it take until you start seeing the results? Do you have any suggestions where I can do backlinking? I'm not sure if I'm doing this right.
You are very welcome. Welcome to HubPages!! Back links are links that take you to other pages, preferably more Hub's. You can put Hub links on to other sites that you may belong to, which will bring traffic to your Hubs. You also can have up to 2 'out going' links per hub (if you write on other sites). When you write Hubs and they may have a common word (within other Hubs) you can create a link while in the edit mode. Highlight a word then click on the sideways figure 8 a new small window will pop up and you can choose via drop down menu the Hub you want to link with that word. You can also have HubPages suggest links, using your tagged words. Click on 'suggest links' at the top of your hub.
It takes a good 20 Hubs and about a month to see any results.
Hope this helps!
Sweetsusieg,
I'm very impressed with your knowledge! It looks like I have a lot to learn here. With your words of encouragement and the comments written by others, I am determined to work hard to put some good contents in my hub. I have bookmarked your hub as I would like to learn more from you and the others who write their comments here. Thank you all!
Thanks, this is too much useful for me. I don't make much on google, however i am trying and trying. I hope that i will be success on this site.
FANTASTIC article. Bookmarked it! remember to have fun, fun, fun
@ ma45frost - My knowledge has come from time and learning. It took me quite a while of reading others Hubs to be able to figure a lot out.
@ mgm16 - Just keep on writing!! It will come
@ tsmog - Thanks for the compliment!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
Very informative, as a school teacher, my second passion has always been writing to inspire. These hubs have enabled me to do exactly that..Just a question, do you ever write about personal matters that you might not want your family or friends to read? thanks again marguarite
Well thank you!! It's good to know that I have inspired someone! Well to a certain extent, there are a couple hubs that I wouldn't necessarily want screamed to the world. I originally wrote them to vent and get them out of my system, so I could move on and get down to writing good. My family has their own rows to hoe, they don't read my stuff. With them it's more 'show me the money'...
ah! i just want to let you know that all of this was reallllly encouraging! i'm a newbie, nothing written yet...still trying to figure out whether or not it's a scam or something! but from what i can tell, i think i just may enjoy this (:
I can honestly say it is not a scam and I do understand your hesitation. I've been through enough of them myself (scams)but I can tell you it isn't going to come fast and their may be days of frustration, that is life. But above all Welcome to HubPages!!
Keep on writing!!
Thank you for the hub. I always want fast money but the reality is that there's no such thing. Patience is virtue.
Yes, the need for money usually comes at times when we don't have any!! Then we are in a hurry to get it, waiting is something that most of us have a hard time doing when the wolf is at the door. This is more of a 'preventing the wolf from coming to the door'.
Keep on writing!!
Hi Sweetsusieg, just to let you know, I've published a new hub, and featured you, and this article, in it; as well as a backlink of course. Hopefully, even more people will clickthru and learn from your words of wisdom.
Against HubPages rules to self-promote here, but if you’re interested, visit my profile page; you'll have no trouble spotting which article it is.
Keep up the good work, (I noted the 100 rating!) Cheers.
Well I will certainly have to check it out! Thanks for thinking of me and for letting me know.
Thanks for the tips. Wish i could earn some big bucks from HP :)
The money does come, in time. In the mean time, write more Hubs. Keep on writing!!
Cheers great reading and makes me feel better about writing too to be honest - thanks again
Thanks for stopping by! Glad you enjoyed it...
Thanks for a great Hub! Very useful! Cheers
You are most welcome!! Glad you enjoyed..
Hey,

Thanks
rmebrandz
@ sachini - I'm so glad you found this useful! Welcome to HubPages!
@ rembranz - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm glad you got your approval!
Best Wishes to you both!
hey really nice work you did, keep up your good work
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Great hub, I'll bear this in mind! It is a fun but slow process!! :)
Thanks for your quick reply, Well i think you are really a good thinker and intelligent writer
@ BethanRose - It is fun isn't it? Some days are better than others as well.
@ zshnkhn - LOL, well I try to respond to my readers as soon as I can. I know that people appreciate being recognized for their comments.
Best Wishes!!
Thank you for the wealth of information!
You are most welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
wow nice post
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
This was very useful information and thanks for sharing, me being my first time it gave me a lot of insight on what do do so I will keep writing hubs and hope to make new and exciting friends to be able to give me some much needed feed back on my writing
Great tips . Thanks
I JUST READ YOUR ARTICLE- THANKS, VERY INFORMATIVE, I JUST STARTED ON HUB PAGES- ONLY HAVE 7 ARTICLES OUT.I AM CONCERNED ABOUT RUNNING OUT OF THINGS TO WRITE ABOUT. LIKE YOU SAID- I SHOULD GET OUT OF MY "COMFORT ZONE"- WRITE ABOUT NEW EXPERIENCES. I WILL TRY THAT. I AM TRYING ALSO TO BE AN AFILLIATE MARKETER- THAT TOO IS A LOT OF WORK- I KNOW- NOTHING WORTH WHILE COMES EASY. I WILL SUCCEED- I LOVE HARDWORK IF IT IS WORTHWHILE. BEST, ROB
Hi, I am a nobie but I like the way you write. I just started I have always written but in private so I will need to beat it out myself to put it in the hub pages. Thanks great to have read about you.
Wow, great post. I was deeply touched one of the best i ever read.
@ MsLadyTi - Yep, that is exactly correct! It will come in time. I'm so glad you found this helpful!
@ michalk - Thanks!
@ NYNY911 - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm sure that if you think just a little bit you can find something to write about! Give ti a whirl, expand your mind, it will come.
@ Foriegn 101 - Welcome to HubPages! If you've written anything and stored it on your computer, look it over and see if it would make a good Hub!
@ Tamila Roverts - So glad that you liked it!!
Best Wishes to all of you in your endeavors, Keep on Writing!!
Great Post! I'm new to hub pages, started 4 weeks ago, still not sure what I'm doing, did write couple hubs, if you have a moment I would be touched if you could take a look at them. Need all the help i can get.
Welcome to HubPages! I will see what I can do!
Thanks for stopping by!
Good grief!! How do you get such exposure and comments? I guess my hubs aren't very interesting as they only appeal to a small audience. I think the #1 thing I need to work on is my consistency... hubbers with big followings always say just keep writing, just keep writing (just like your Nemo video).
Thomas
really Good hub...very informative....keep up the good work.
what type of work do hubber, you are correct everybody want to get more money,and people want to do that kind of job...
great hub...very helpful...
If only it was as easy as you make it sound
Sam
I'm new to hubpages and want to earn money using it, I was searching for this kind of post which can guide us [newbies], this hub is actually what I need... this helps me a lot...
@ darntoothysam - Honestly, when I started on HubPages I was in a state of mind where I was so determined to succeed. Nothing was going to stand in my way, it was my time. There were days I spent 18 hours or more on here writing and reading along with commenting and asking/answering questions. That was how I got exposure.
@ Divine emerald - Thanks, so glad you liked it!
@ aquarium - I am not sure how to respond to your comment.
@ BMG - Thanks!
@ Weber Genesis - Not necessarily hard, just time consuming.
@ DJArifrocks - Welcome to HubPages! I'm so glad you found this helpful!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting - Just keep writing!!
Great information! I just started trying to write, and the more I liked it, share knowledge to others and when others agree with us, it is incredible taste. I also do not expect too much will get a big income from this but if it turns out to make money and succeed like you ... Hubpages one good place to start
I like the "hill" analogy...well said.
Thank you so much for posting this, it really helped me understand how to navigate this whole process!
@ WriterDJ - Sharing knowledge is fun! If you get to earn and income from it, even better.
@ rcjervis - LOL, Thanks!
@ manda - I'm so glad you found me! I also am glad that you found this helpful!
Thank you for stopping by!
Great Hub susieg...not only is it smart ; with valuable-facts for Hubbers , but for writers in general as well.Glad I found it , I recently joined Hubpages & your article serves as a guide-post.
Thanks ,
globehouse.
Hi: I have just started writing HubPages. Could you share with me how you got the right side comment bar with the links and text comments under the title: here are a few links I have found helpful?
@ globehouse - I am so glad you found this helpful! Welcome to HubPages!!
@ jkuras2010 - To make side boxes, make a capsule, click save then click on the arrow that points to the right. It will move the capsule to the right.
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank You for the information and the great hub you have written. This is one of the legitimate way to earn money on the Internet.Moreover it has also incorporated other reputed sites like Google Adsense, e-bay etc.
Not a problem!! So glad you enjoyed it! Yes it is legit, I have earned $$ on here and continue to do so.
Thanks for stopping by!
Sweetsusieg you hub was wonderfully educational, straight forward, and honest. It's not easy to make money on Hubpages-I've been at it for over a year and I find that I the more I am on the site the more I find that I don't know.
I really want to earn money here. Thanks for sharing it.
@ mikicagle - Thank you. I too am finding that I still have more to learn. With the HubPages Ad program coming into effect, I should make changes to this Hub.
@ pararudalf - Just getting there, learning daily.
@ RedCrossCNA - people will take you more seriously if you have a picture and don't spam the comments.
Thanks for stopping by!!
Hi Susie, I am new to hubpages so this was an extremely encouraging article, thanks for sharing your thought and tips!
Welcome to HubPages!! You are most welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed them!
Thanks for the great tips Sweetsusieg. I have bookmarked this Hub so I can refer to your tips as I write.
This was awesome and it helped me a lot. Thanks for sharing your ideas with everyone.
Thanx for the tips. I'm a new Hubber, not looking to get rich by posting here, in fact that's not even my main concern, I just thought it looked like a cool place to put some of my deranged scribblings where people might actually read them. :) But hey, some extra cash would be nice too. We'll see how it goes.
@ Ramsa1 - Awesome! But remember to look for other answers as well. Things have changed here at HubPages since this Hub was written, There is now the HubPages Ad Program to join that will also bring earnings.
@ s_joyjeet - I'm so glad you were able to be helped!!
@ FatFreddysCat - Welcome to HubPages!! One never knows what people want to read! If your deranged writings make you a few dollars, YAY!! It's more than you had to start with!!
Thanks for stopping by and remember Dorie, Keep on writing!!
I've been here at hubpages for 4 days and I still haven't write anything. I find it difficult to start although I have so many ideas to write about. This article is a very helpful one for starters like me. Thank you for writing this one Ms. Sweetsusieg!
You are welcome! So glad that you joined us here at HubPages!! Now... get those Hubs written!
Thanks of stopping by!
Thanks a bunch for this Hub. It was the one that convinced me to go ahead and join Hubpages and give it a go. I consider myself a Hubvirgin, but so far, the experience has been good. ;-)
Wow! What a compliment, Thank you! Welcome to HubPages!! I hope your stay here will be a pleasant one! Best Wishes to you in your writing!
Thanks so much for stopping by and telling me that!
Thanks for the nice article,Great read
Really useful information especially helpful for us newies, I thought I might try writing a hub a couple of weeks ago, now it's 7 hubs later and I eat, sleep and think hubs constantly!! Many thanks
After signing up, and coming here, I'm gonna give it a whirl, really useful information, hopefully I'll have some fun, and maybe earn a little money.
@ htodd - You are very welcome!!
@ Movie Master - Amazing isn't it? Everything you look at becomes 'I wonder if I can turn this into a Hub...'
@ flamingoville - Awesome! Welcome to Hubpages!! I certainly hope you'll enjoy yourself!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!! Remember, Keep on writing!!
Hi.I am new to Hubpages and I have posted 2 articles on Hubpages. The score of my hubpages going upword near 80. I want to know about this score and secondly how to open adsense account???????....
The Hub scores are a secret that only the staff on HubPages know about, some sort of algorithm. Opening an AdSense account can be found within the help pages. Follow the links.
Welcome to HubPages!! Thanks for visiting!
nice info
I am really enjoying writing on HP and getting involved in the community. It is good to learn from the Hubber experts.
Thanks for the great info.
It was a great article to read, very informative as well, look forward to implement few ideas, fortunately I have google adsense account, I will try out posting more hubs.
Thanks for the valuable information you shared.
@ facebookers - Thanks
@ Brent Stone - The forums can be lots of fun, personally I avoid conversations regarding politics and religions... but other than that, they are great!!
@ writersrushin - Thank you, I'm so glad you found something helpful in here!
@ livagoth - You are most welcome!
Thank you all for stopping by!
You are totally right this is not a get rich quick scheme...I ve researched the how to make good hubs topic long before i joined and it took me some time....and one of the hubs was yours ...so now that i joined i thought i could say thank you very much for the info and the help....cya around
What a nice compliment! Thank you! So glad that I could be of some help in your endeavors!

So glad to have you here at HubPages!! Best of luck in your endeavors!
Love your share. I'm new here and learned a lot from your hubs. Thank you
I didn't break two arms but my thumb's in a splint and I'm typing with two fingers. I'm still writing hubs! I think that if you're a writer you simply must write! Hubpages is a good place to practice.
Thanks for your informative hub. I would have liked to know how much, on average, it's possible to earn if the hubs are good, say with 100 of them?
Hello Sweet Susie.. This article is good for new hubbers like me.. This article is very informative and instructional and I know I am in the right track following all of your instructions.. I hope you can help me sometime whenever I have some queries. Thank you..
great article suzi...article was encouraging for the newbie to earn money through HP...keep writting
am just a new guy and don't know how it looks like but i know that it is so good and helpful to people and i said that let me join and see if it will be helpful to me too
@ Ellenzhou - Thank You!! I'm so glad you have found help on here!
@ aslanlight - I don't know if there is an average on the amount you earn, it varies depending on the subject one has written about. Anytime the Hubs are good they are good earners!
@ sammy@isinay - I will do what I can! I'm so glad you liked my Hub.
@ Air Zimbabwe - Thanks! Glad you liked it!
@ peterchiom42 - Welcome to HubPages!!
Thank you all for stopping by!! Keep on writing!!
Thank you was very helpful!
Thanks for the nice hub, I would say this is a must-read for anyone that's truly interested in working with Hubpages on a consistent basis. I would also add - never stop learning about online promotion! Once you have a hub up, that's only half the battle. The other half is getting people to see it, usually through search engines. Thanks again!
@ khauler - You are welcome!
@ BlueGlobal - Thank you for that lovely input!! Yes, promoting is very important!!
Thank you both for stopping by!
Sweet and Simple. Thanks. I just joined and following your suggestions. Good luck and much success. :)
Nice article,Thanks.Good luck
Thanks. This was very interesting and helpful :) I just joined three days ago, so it was a great read for me. Thanks again!
i like this hub!!!!
@ MeditationIsEasy - Thanks
@ wengfeng1989 - Thank you
@ amandabaughn - Much appreciated!
@ flowerpick - Glad you liked it!!
Thanks for stopping by!!
huge content in this post, it boring to read it out. please make it meaningful shorter post and if possible - write by giving some points.
very useful! I have been on hub pages a little while but not taken off. So will follow your steps to get more followers etc etc! Thanks!
very informative hub and what I would like to know is how much money do we have to make to get paid form Hugpages?
thanks nice article and very informative
@ khalil517- Here at HubPages, we are not 'bloggers', it is not a blogging site, it's a writing site designed to give good information. I'm not exactly sure what your comment means, please clarify. The comments are long, true, some are helpful additions to the hub itself.
@ Spindle - Thanks for stopping by, I hope this helps... Keep on writing!!
@ anjali - It seemed as though 4 of your posts were spam, I'm not sure why, like you were copying and pasting.
@ donnau1 - Your pay depends on what you write and how much you write, along with how many unique visitors you get.
@ michealethan - Thanks, so glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for stopping by!!
Sweetsusieg, hello! My comment is more directed towards u personally rather than your article which was very well written. U caught my interest in a response comment about the books you have written but not yet published. I just have to inquire, why? Writing is my passion and seeing people with that same passion inspires me. My dream is to write novels...what is yours? But in reference to your article, the thought of attempting to earn money online seems as though it comes with a lot of smoke and mirrors to me...hope you have a wonderful day.
New Hubbers certainly seem to have the mistaken belief that the earnings will come easily.
It does take work.
I think the best advice is to simply write and create interesting Hubs just for the fun of it, and not to dwell on the money.
There is quite a learning curve for most new people starting out on HubPages. But learning and being successful here IS very possible.
@ Marine Wife - Whoo-boy, here goes. There are several reasons I am not published in a traditional fashion. First I had to obtain a copyright Which I did (the poor mans way), the second I needed to find an Agent, that is a LOT harder than you could imagine, too many of them not taking new clients. If I would have chosen to 'self publish' that would have cost me about $600 in up front money (at the time I was looking to self publish) then after self publishing I would have had to go into books stores and convince them to carry my book. I'm not sure the policy of Barnes and Nobles on taking in new Authors. In my area there aren't many book stores.
My inspiration for writing is Erma Bombeck, I have some big shoes to fill!! I don't write in the traditional fashion as a lot of Authors, I like to write the way I talk. Yes, I can write 'all fancy schmancy' but I choose to write what I am comfortable with.
Lastly, my computer ate my books.... I saved that computer for more than 3 years with the hopes of finding someone to pull it off the reformatted hard drive. No such luck. I still have part of it, but it needs to be re-typed, the rest of it is in my memory bank.
As far as making money online, yes it is possible. It is great for a little extra income, am I going to get rich off of it? I do not thinks so. I am more in the hopes of someone, somewhere reading my work and either benefiting from it personally or getting 'recognized' as a decent Author, and offering me a book deal. I still have a lot of 'good stuff' locked away in my brain.
@ tritrain - So true!! You might see from some of my comments, even though I have clearly stated in this Hub it is going to be hard work and lots of it, they want to know where the money is. After writing 2 or 3 Hubs. It's going to take more than that!!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!!
Thanks Sweetsusieg, I have been trying to find ways to improve my hubs. Thanks for the extra lesson.
Cardisa
Not a problem, glad you enjoyed!!
Hi there, I have just read your hub and found it informative, inspirational and just the motivation I need! Then I read the comments and have to say what a wonderful genuine person you are to take the time to reply to everyone individually. I do hope your dreams of becoming a published author come true, you have a lovely writing style. x
Well thank you!! What a terrific compliment! I couldn't ask for anything more!
Thanks so much for stopping by!
No problem at all, only being honest :) Take Care
Thank you so much. This is such an encouraging hub and I have never seen such a huge feedback so I'm not the only one who thinks so. I am new to hubpages so its all a learning experience for me. The one thing that I do wonder about is, who are the people clicking on the adverts to enable us to make money? Surely its not other hubbers? O yes, and I agree with Chocoholiccarli totally.
I read your hub and it gave me the encouragment to keep writing. Naturally, I would like to make $, but I really want to inform people of things that I am passionate about.
Shore but brief information. Thanks alot for sharing your ideas.
@ chocoholiccarli - ;) Now you're just tryin to make me blush!
@ Lesleysherwood - The ones who click on the adverts hopefully are non- members, HubPages guests. Hubbers know better than to do that, it would get us banned from Google Adsense. Welcome to HubPages!! I hope you enjoy yourself!
@ Joe Citizen - That's what is most important, writing what you know and love.
@ loveforlife - LOL, Thanks, earlier today I was accused of making this too long and not giving any information!! Ahh, such is life!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
how do I sign uo for this if I do not have any recent work history? I would like to start earning money but, I haven't done everything that I need to do yet it is a little confusing. Your article has helped though.
You do not have to have nay recent work history for google Adsense. You should however have a few Hubs under your belt before attempting to sign up. Give yourself at least 5 good Hubs before applying. Read, learn, most everything you will need is here on HubPages... All in the faq and Hubs.
Well Sweetsusieg, I guess I have to throw in my five cents worth. I also compliment you on the content of your hub. Very well done and I appreciate your taking the time to help all of us get going. It's confusing when jut starting out on this journey, for sure!
LOL - and what a fine 5 cents it is!! I certainly appreciate it! Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting!!
Thanks for the links pointing out the hubs to study. It should be interesting comparing this site to others I write for.
Well written article. Hopefully I can utilize some of this information.
@ javrsmith - You are very welcome, glad I could help!
@ laneanders - I hope you can as well!!
Thanks for stopping by, keep those fingers flying!!
Wow! I loved this, so helpful and informative for a noob like me. Going to share it on my FB account, I've had several friends ask me about HubPages since they've seen my articles and you describe it much better than I ever could. Thanks!
So glad this was helpful to you!! Much appreciation for sharing it as well...
Wow what a Hub and you actually comment on our comments...voted you up.said you are awesome and am following you..thanks for all the great info.
I know there are a few Hubbers who don't return comments, been there right along with you.... It's one of the reasons I do this. Thanks for the vote up and awesome!!
This is a great hub. I hope to making some good money here soon!
Thanks!! Best of Luck to you in your endeavors!!
Great hub Sweetsusieg, very informative. I'm new to hub so this article really helps.
It is very interesting post. Yep, how? And the post has given me at least one strategy saved inside the way for getting started. Money, who or what are you? I like to invite you, money, to come to my desk of the valuable lifetime. You, money, will be welcome openly by me every time, space, occasion, situation, condition and ... what else? I always long for you so much and so much. Let's eat together with me! I love you, The Money!
@ REdCrossCNA - Now if only this particular Hub was an earner I'be in a win-win situation!
@ Phonesystem - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you were helped!!
@ Elisabeth - That is a an interesting concept!!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!

Thanks for the informations. It helps new beginners. I have never written a hub not until i joined hub pages the last 2 years. Now i am starting to enjoy it and i am motivated to write more about something that inspires me, my ideas, experiences, adventures etc. I wish there would be someone to give more suggestions or evaluations about what i write, if you have time give me a personal notice. Thanks again and regards.
very well written and motivating

Such a great article!!! Thank you :)
Your post very nice I am a writer on HubPages. While yes, you can earn money writing on there, it takes a lot of articles to get to that point. However, if you use proper keyword research and create quality in demand articles, some people earn a decent amount on that site.
@ beleza - Thank you for such nice words!!
@ employee identification badges - Well I don't know much about SEO and keyword search, so I just write what I know, and hope it draws viewers.
Thanks for stopping by!! Keep on writing!
Sweetsusieg, this is really helpful. Thank you very much. You covered everything.
Well not quite everything, but most things... HubPages now has an Ad program that pays you as well. When I wrote this hub it wasn't in play. It was implemented about a month ago. But I am very glad you like it!!
Thanks for stopping by!
thanks sweetsuseig,that is going to help definitely.
Glad you found it helpful!
Thanks, very helpful!
Well, thank you for stopping by!!

Yes, lots of reading on here, the different Hubs and tutorial tools that the helpful staff have put together. Best of luck to you!
I have just started Hubpages so even though I am not a newbie to making money with writing articles, this is a whole new adventure for me! So far so good! =)
Awesome!! Welcome to HubPages!! It's a great community here, make sure you check out the forums for any answers you seek!!
Amazon can approve your request within few days and you wrote that amazon took time.
Kindly correct me if I am wrong.
I had said "There is also Amazon, E-bay, Kontera and Google Analytics. It will take several days for Amazon to approve you so apply and wait."
Because every account is different I didn't give a specific amount of time.
Thanks for asking!!
Thanks,Sweetsusieg,you made things easy. I like your writing way: simple and clear!
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed this!
This was a great Hub. Useful!! Some good comments, as well. I should have read it when I first started this. As you said, we just keep learning. Thanks so much.
Thanks! Well there is still time to learn!! Keep on learning and writing!!!

@ froch - You are very welcome! Glad you enjoyed
@ iron doors - You are most welcome!
I loved this hub. As a newbie, it was very helpful. Thank you!
Hi, my name is Laral and maybe your tired to read comment about this hub the your wrote many months ago but I just feel I need you to tell you something about myself and this hub. When I subscribed to hubpages, 22 months ago, I registered with the site and did nothing for about 19 months even forgot about it. Then I accidentally found it on Google and discovered that I was already registered! I really liked it but I didn't know if it was something for me. I always loved to write but do it in front an audiance...uhm....scary!! Then I read your hub and other hubs on how to write and discovered the hub community and all those articles about hubpages that I decided to have a go. However it was this hub that really got me started! And from time to time I go back here and I read it over and over again. It is a great article!! I now have 19 of my hubs published and I am about to write my 20th.Thank you so much!! I love this site and it is such a pleasure to meet great writers like you that share their thoughts with us. Have a great day
@ Healthguru - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you enjoyed this!
@ laral - Well welcome back to HubPages!! Glad you found your way back here. I'm so happy that you found my Hub helpful!!
Thank you both for stopping by and commenting!!
I had to scroll through all these just to let you how much I really appreciate this hub. It was very informative, but straight to the point. I loved it! Thank you very much!
There are an awful lot of comments aren't there?? I wonder what happens when they hit 1000? So glad you loved it! You are very welcome and thanks so much for stopping by!!
Very useful hub, thanks alot, us newcombers appreciate it.
You are most welcome, glad you found ti helpful!! Welcome to HubPages!!
Very helpful article!!
Excellent hub, thanks! Just a question though, which one of the earning programs work best for you?
I have read this hub. I think this is a good hub.
I have only written 2 hubs and I have found your article very helpful. There is a lot for me to learn and I will take it step by step to improve my Hubs. Thanks for the information.
I am just starting. Thanks a lot for the advices!
I am also using HubPages to improve my english. So, engaging with other Hubbers will not only be helpfull to generate visits to my Hubs. It will be a great way to develop my writing in another language.
Thanks again for the informative Hub.
Wow - It looks like I need to check my e-mail more often!! Sorry for the delay in answering!
@ jennm13 - Thanks for stopping by!
@ riotgrrl18 - Well it depends on each site, and what ti is you write about! There is no 'set' place that earns the best. Some places have contests etc and those can bring in some nice extra income. So glad you enjoyed it!
@ breathing - Thanks so much!!
@ steveso - One step at a time is all we can do!! Just keep on learning as you go!
@ PedroLeiteAntunes - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you found my hub helpful!! Take it one day at a time and you will do just fine...
Thank you all for stopping by!!
A great hub and very useful. Many thanks!
This hub is very well written and very useful. I have to bookmark it and come back to all the sub articles. I'm just starting out as a professional blogger and need all the help I can get. You're so awesome.
Thank you for your insite. I am new at hubpages and just published my first hub. I guess my question is, is do I just keep going in and editing my first on or do I need to create a new one everytime I want to write?
@ A0posterprinting - Thanks right back at ya!!
@ Carlon Michelle - Awww, thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it!
@ Shealynn - Oh you need to write a new one each time!! If you want to edit, go in a do so, then click publish again. I've found a friend that proof reads for me and tries to catch any typos, every now and then we both miss one or two.. Welcome to HubPages..
Most of all - HAVE FUN with it!!!
Great informative Hub. I am amazed at all the comments! Very possitive also.
Thank you Naomi - So glad you enjoyed it! Yes, there are a lot of comments, I'm wondering what will happen when it reaches 1000 - just a few away from that!
Vow, great hub, really it will be useful for beginners like me. Great information. Thanks! a lot
Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you enjoyed it and you are most welcome!
Hello people, i am quiet new hubber, but all of you are inspiring and motivating me for next and next hubs! I've connected my hobby,work,english practice and maybe income, all in one! What a great opportunity!
By responding to everyone`s comment, i think, it shows dedication. I wish i could be as versatile as you are. I have really learnt a lot from you. More power to your elbow
I enjoy your hubs. Wpll read more thoroughly.
Great hub.......extremely useful.Thanks fr sharing such useful information Sweetsusieg .U cleared a lot of my doubts
@ neophonic - Way to Go!! Best of luck in your endeavors!
@ hemorrhoidremedy - As someone who comments on others, I like to know that my words are being read, I like to treat others as I wish to be treated myself.
@ art-max - Thank you!!
@ Obsecure_Treasures - You are most welcome, so glad you enjoyed it!!
Thank you all for stopping by and remember!! Just keep writing!
Very encouraging. I think that first of all Hubpages should not be seen as a revenue generating activity, but rather as a pastime
Thank you!! Well I am sure there are many Hubber's who would agree then there are those who find writing for HubPages quite lucrative!!
Excellent hub!
Very helpuful!
Cheers, keep up the good work!
@ Debra - Thanks!!
@ Invitationwrite - So glad you liked it!
Thank you both for stopping by!
Great Hub, and I am really working hard to make some money on HubPages...not too successful so far, but Hubbers like you are a great mentor and inspiration...I am proud of my 31 Hubs thus far, feel like they are great content for frugal advise, but I need to write more.
Thank you!! Yes, it takes a little time when writing to build a decent income. Keep up the good work, it will come all in due time!!
Thanks for the information. It's really a great help for new hubbers like me
You are very welcome!! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for such a sensible and down-to-earth hub. It was pleasing to read; this is the first hub I have seen with a hub score of a full 100! What will you aim for now!
Great advice - and definitely writing about my little guy gives me first-hand experience that I can share with others.
Oh man, so encouraging, thanks. Definitely a bit overwhelming starting this process.
@ wwriter - Well the score fluctuates up and down during the day, I'm not sure what causes it, but I'm sure before the day is over it will be down some. So glad you enjoyed this!!
@ tarrka1089 - Oh yes!! Kids can give tons of good information! You just never know what the little *gulp* - darlings will do in a day!
@ Matt Stark - Yes it can be!! Just take little bites at a time, it will all come together!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!
This is great instructional material for a new hubber such as I am.
Thanks so much for a honest and straitforward article
Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for stopping by!
Good information. I have been Hubbing for a month now and have not made a penny. But I am plugging along! So we'll see! I appreciated your honesty in the writing! Vote up for me!
More Hubs!! You need more Hubs! Then you should have some sort of social network like facebook, myspace, twitter, stumbleupon etc.. send your links to those places to get views!! HubPages now has a program that you can sign up and earn $$$ on views alone, you'll still want google adsense though to pick up extra $$. Hope this helps!
Thank you, this hub was extremely informative to me, a new hubber/freelance writer! I love what you said, "Live your life, get ideas." It is easy to sit there in front of your computer racking your brain for ideas when, truly, they're out and about waiting for you to experience them! Great advice!
Absolutely!! Nothing better than going out living life and getting ideas!!
Great information to share there. Just started Hubbing for 7 days and find it great so far. Thanks for this hub again
I like this the most...just keep writing...keep writing...thanks for your sharing...have a nice day.
What a hub! As newbie this is just brillinat.
@injured lamb - I agree. we must just keep writing...keep writing
i love the concept!!!
Very Nice... We all know the pay comes from how many people you can actually get to view it. From the looks of things, you have got that part down pretty well. And about the '...can lead a horse to water but cant make it drink' comment you made to the other gentleman is, in my opinion, very true. You have to write about what people are interested in. I totally agree and looking at all your comments, "How To Make Money Hubbing" seems to be a very interesting topic...lol! Peace Sister!
great advice and great hub
Extremely wonderful hub, full of information. Thanks a lot.
I think one of the keys is coming up with good titles and interesting content. A lot of people write about generic things and the hard part is standing out from the crowd. These are observations I made about successful bloggers in general.
Thank you! I love reading your hub. The information is very useful to newcomers, like myself.
Extremely excellent Hub.Very helpful tips.Voted 'Useful' 'Awesome', 'interesting' and 'Beautiful'.
Your hub is fantastic, and we all need to follow your advice. I have not been able to make the money for writing that I wanted, but I love to write. I also stumbled upon another avenue that will be beneficial. Check this out: http://NanMynatt.OneGreatMovie.com I believe I can make it.
Great article very helpful! I see you said to send links to friends, but when I read the terms and agreement I thought it said we can't...so we can?
I was also wondering if people in your household can read your articles if they share the same modem isp as you do, so it doesn't look like I am clicking my own links.
@ bloggingguide - Welcome to HubPages! So glad you enjoyed it!
@ Injured Lamb - Awww, Thank you!
@ HennieN - Yep, just keep writing! Welcome!!
@ priyanka_marandi - Thanks!
@ BossLady631 - The people who surf the Internet are fickle! From one day to the next who can guess what is desired to be read about! It's a bit of a guessing game, and in these tough times, making money seems to be the big question!
@ bailey bart - Sorry, but it's rather rude to advertise on someone else's Hub!!
@ Jimmy Evola - Thanks!!
@ Stephen Kalu - Thank you so much!
@ mishaanatolia - Best wishes to you in your endeavors!!
@ happypuppy - You are most welcome!!
@ sanathara - Well Thank you very much!! You get my vote as an awesome reader!!
@ Nan Mynatt - I'll leave up your comment because you actually did make a comment, but truly I would rethink in the future putting up links in the comment section.
@ B.A. Williams - Yes, you can send your links in e-mails to friends, there is nothing wrong with that. Do not ask them to click on the ads, you can and WILL be banned from Google. If you by chance check out your Google adsense page and notice a lot of clicks, it is up to you to report it to Google. They are really fussy and will ban you permantently. As far as your family reading your Hubs, by all means they can, BUT remember they SHOULD NOT click on the ads. It's the same modem and the same
IP address. Links are different than ads.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!! Keep on Writing!!
Great hub inspired me a lot and help me a lot
I just started my self I haven't even put up a profile picture yet. I have only done one Hub and still going into it everday and trying to add new things to it to make it better. How long have you ben doing this and do you make enough to work form home only. I have three kids and we are always living pay check to pay check so my goal is to be able to pay our bills and eventually stay at home with my kids. what do you think?
Thank you for your share,it is really useful.
@ Hussain - Thanks!! Glad to be of help!
@ holt1932 - Well, for the most part I am a different type of writer. I am a non-fiction comedic type of writer, I take true stories and try to find the comedy within. Not much call for that these days! I also like to write about life's lessons. For me I haven't been able to 'quit my day job' with writing. That and Google has changed so much! I've been on HubPages for 12 months now. Just celebrated my 1st Anniversary!!
@ letianmoon - You are most welcome!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!
hello Sweetsusieg,

Well thank you!! Glad I could give you that little nudge you needed! Best of Luck to you!!
I the value in hub traffic and how your business grows with more visitors. Fantastic view of how hub pages work and how people get involved in the stories and ventures shared on here. Best of luck in you business, yours SteveHall
I am new to the game, so this was very helpful to me, thanks for the tips.
@ SteveHall - Thanks!! I'm glad you liked it!
ewelz51 - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you enjoyed!!
Finally Comment. Thank you. This has helped me a whole lot. I'm now following you. Please stop by and read my hub. I don't quit. I found Adsence not being easy to get into. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
An excellent introduction to HubPages, Susie - I think a lot of people would benefit from making this their first stop. Really great hub!
@ pftsusan - Yes, there are a lot of comments aren't there? I never thought this would do so well. I certainly am glad it is!! It seems to be helping people at least get an idea of what to do.
@ .josh - Thank you so much!! That is a very nice compliment. There are lots of great Hubs here as well that give good instructions!!
Thank you both for stopping by!!
Thanks for sharing...this was a very useful hub...a lot of great tips...thanks!
You are very welcome!! So glad you enjoyed...
Your hub was the first one I read. It was helpful. Thanks!
I have read this hub. It was helpful.Thank you~
Great info. You've given many of us a wonderful service by explaing what we need to do in order to be successful here on hub pages. Thanks a bunch!
Sweetsusieg,thanks so much for your guide, I am a new member here. :)
Hey wonderful job, I loved your hub a lot, thanks for the information. I really understand there are no free lunches in this world. You have to work really hard to reap the benefits, money will only come by hard work and intelligence. I am also new here and have enough patience, I can wait before I actually start earning.
Well just a repeat of what everybody else is saying really, great information..thanks!
@ dan-1 - Well, that is really cool!! So glad I was the 1st!!
@ shipairbagfender - (whew that name is a mouthful!) You are very welcome, glad you found it helpful!
@ carol3san - Thanks!! Best wishes to your success!!

@ andrewwilliams63 - LOL, Thanks so much for commenting!
Thanks so much for stopping by!! Keep on writing!
I'm the new kid on the block and found your post very helpful. I especially enjoyed the Nemo video.
Good post, I am still thinking about how to make money 24 hours a day without working for a company. And I join Hubpages for SEO needs.
Great hub very inspiring. Thankyou for doing what you do best! Keep up the good work.
Great reading for sure! Need all the help I can get.
You know, I feel as though I have read hundred and hundreds of similar articles, but this is the first one I've read that a) kept my attention and b) was interesting enough for me to learn from it. It was very well written and I like how you break it down as if it's just any other job. well done and thanks for the help co-worker :)
My name Faruque I am from Bangladesh.
Thanks. Useful to all.
I know some thing from this topic.
Great information, but the most difficult part is to follow them.Hopefully, I will try and follow them. Thanks.
@ dawney - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you made it!
@ jay19871229 - Neat isn't it? You can be making money 24 hours a day here on HubPages..
@ fathonblue - Well thank you very much!!
@ Sue - So glad you enjoyed it!!
@ ThompsonPen - So you're saying that I should go into teaching then? LOL Just kidding!! Glad you enjoyed the Hub and I am REALLY glad it was able to capture your interest!!
@ rangpur - Thanks!!
@ rexertea - Here at HubPages you just do what you can!! There is no test at the end of the day. They give us the tools, it's up to us to utilize them.
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!
This is great. I need to take some adivce from you and rework my own hubs. I think I've been here so long I was in a rut. Time to as you say, get back to work.
This has really captured the idea of work and time and effort to me, many thanks.
I've been trying to find an article about hubpages itself and yours was actually the first lol. It was extremely helpful. I enjoy writing but am new to a lot of this. I hope hubpages works for me, but even if I don't make a lot of money at least I know I'll have fun!
I think the key to making money on hubpages is figuring out how to make drive traffic from outside sources, like social network websites!!
Thanks for simpliying this whole process, I was getting a bit frustated. It took me a week to find instructions for setting up Google Analytics. I alread write three columns for examiner.com, but I was looking for additional freelance opportunities. Looking forward to your future Hubs.
@ Rebecca E. - So glad you enjoyed and hope it helped you out of that rut.
@ flintgirl23 - Welcome to HubPages!! Having fun is the key to success, you should at least like what it is that you're doing>>
@ AgesMGMT - That certainly is a big part of it! Without the readers you have no earnings!!
@ Yvonne Jessey - Thanks, so glad you enjoyed! I think that sometimes writers have a tendency to go overboard with their word use in an attempt impress. As a read I have found if I need a dictionary during the reading process, what I read is not nearly as much fun!
Thanks for stopping by!
Wow! What a great hub, and as a newcomer I really appreciate you laying out all of this information. I'm looking for ways to add value to the hubber community, and this spells it all out. Thanks!
Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you were able to be helped. I'm sure that you will be able to add value to the Community with such zest!!
That really helped to read. Thanks much!
I'm a newbie here, so this awesome hub really helped me. I'm from the Philippines, though, and having some issues signing up on Google Adsense. Any advice?
hi, i am a newbie here in hubpages. I am currently working and still find time to write. Well, im not really into writing. But i guess it fun to write and you are learning as well. You've got a nice hub.very informative....
Great hub! Thanks for sharing! It is really useful.
Thank you for writing this!
What a great advice! I am currently new in HP, this is very helpful to me! I will follow you :)
Cheers
@ felicitylovespari - Thank you!
@ jharamagblogspot - welcome to HubPages!! You have to have more than 1 Hub to get Google Adsense going. Because you live out of the US (Google is US based) you need to show Google good faith by writing more Hubs before applying. Write a good 10 Hubs, give it a week then apply.
izipio90 - Welcome to HubPages, most of the writers here on HubPages really enjoy the writing aspect of it. I hope that eventually you will too!
@ JosephSue - You are very welcome!
@ Robin Pena - You are most welcome!
@ hsurja - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you found this helpful!
Thank you all for stopping by and Keep on Writing!!
That is a great hub, very useful and I'll follow a lot of the advice.
Nice share.. i will do the best in hub page.. :) cheers
@ RoughOutline - Thanks so much!! I'm sure you will do just fine.
@ credit care payments online - Cheers to you too!!
Thank you both for stopping by!
Thank-you! Any little bit of advice helps!
Not a problem, glad you enjoyed!!
Great Information!! I really needed this. Im new to the hubpage.com and you really helped me a bunch with this info. Thank you!!
Thank you Great advise!
hi sweetsusieg,
can i ask you a question?since you are veteran here in hugpages, for you, is it good or not to activate hugpages ads in my hub?would it affect my adsense performance?
if you have any idea, i would be glad to hear it.
Thanks
Thanks a lot Sweetsusieg for such an informative article. I have just now started writing and this has given me lot of new ideas.
I was wondering. I'm almost 18 years old, but I'm not there yet. Could I still get paid even if I'm a minor. Or, is there no way in hell that that's not happening?
@ Ramzeed - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad that you found help here! Nothing like wandering around wondering what to do!
@ sitadev - You are very welcome!
izipo90 - Honestly, I have no idea. I have not messed with that aspect of it, you might better find your answers in the forums to that question. The HubPages ads are fairly new, just implemented this past few months. There are those who play around with that, I'm not one of them.
@ pbgore - Welcome to HubPages! Glad you could fins some help here!!
@ askalexa - HubPages rules are that you cannot be paid until you are 18. You can still write, just not get paid for it. 'Almost'? How long?? If it's just a few months until you turn 18 and are just starting out, I wouldn't worry too much about not getting paid just yet. It's going to take a few months to develop a following, earning income is going to take some time as well. Google Adsense has threshold of $100 (meaning you can't get paid until you reach that) HubPages Ads has a threshold of $50.00, the same applies. You might wish to contact HubPages with your question, the staff is very friendly and most willing to help! An email will do!
Thanks for stopping by!! Keep on writing!!
Thanks for the evry informative Hub, I need to learn how to do this, as I am a newbie-hubber.
Regards Maki D.
A very good and informative hub for a newbie like me!
Lot's of good advice. Thanks!
Jack,
I think if you talk with people who are wanting start making money from an online business they don't realize many things like a lot of us initially, but its about pushing forward every day, and learning a little along the way. It can be overwhelming when you consider all the things you need to know or can know to be successful, but the consistency factor is among the best attributes you can have.
Hi first I feel really bless reading your hub. Keep the good work up. I am 2 days writing on hub and already got one comment on my first hub. So far I have 2 hubs but planning to write many more. The information I found on your hub will help me write better hubs. Thank you and God bless you.
@ delbosc - Welcome to HubPages! Give ti time, it will come.
@ selfdefenselesson - And a big welcome to you as well!
@ Vladimir Molokof - Yep, just a little at a time, learning something new everyday!
Thank you all for stopping by!
Thanks! This helped me with some things I was unsure of & helped sure up things that I already knew. Good stuff! Blessings
I am a new hubber and felt like I was dropped in an ocean, but you have thrown me a life-line. Thank you. I will certainly take to heart your suggestions and get to work. Be blessed.
Thanks for your detailed article, sorry hub :)
Can I ask how long it took for you to start seeing some adsense earnings coming in?
@ Forrest Decker - Sorry your comment must have posted right around the time I made my comments. Keep up the good work!!
@ Kris McFadden - Glad you could find some help here!!
@ Blakesr - I know the feeling, was there not too long ago myself!! One of those sink or swim kind of deals... Good thing I learned to dog paddle a long time ago!!
SuperfoodGuy - You are welcome!! I first saw a few pennies within 2 weeks. It was so entirely cool just to see that, I can't tell you how excited I was. I guess validated is the BEST word I could describe.
Thanks for stopping by!!
Excellent and inspirational hub! Voted up!
My very first hub is published, (http://eloisehope.hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Slipcove and I was ready for some serious advice and community guidance. Found it here! Thank you! I'll refer back to it several times, and use the links and further reading. I appreciate your candor and the practical structure of this hub.
Incredibly helpful for this new hubber. Thank you!
Will google adsense prosecute me if I agreed to their terms and conditions as a minor?
I need to know how to get out of google adsense. Thanks you :)
Great article. Thanks! I might just print this one out to put in my file. I am new to Hubpages and I have just written my first hub, but have not published it yet. I find the score number to be a little intimidating....yikes if I don't get over 90, I shouldn't publish it....your thoughts? and using the on line editor and uploading and editing photos was a learning curve, but I'm dedicated, very passionate and excited about it all...hopefully with that attitude someday it'll be worth it financially too (-: This is a second career for me, I work full time for a large company.
I found this hub to be very informative. Writing has always been my dream, making your dream become reality is very hard work. Having people like you helps me become a better writer
Thanks! This article has been the most informative. I haven't been able to read it all just yet. I'll have to continue it later but, I've already learned from it. Again thanks a lot.
This article is most informative. I'm new to Hubpages so it was very helpful. Thank you for sharing the tips and giving encouragement. It is hard work and its worth it. Writing is something I love. It is something that I have to keep improving on. Thanks again! Have a great day!
Thank you for your hub! I am very new to Hubpages...and so far I love it! But...I am really new to internet writing like blogs, hubs...so your information was really helpful and easy to understand. Well written, thank you! :)
Great confidence booster! Everyone has to crawl before they walk.
I am new at Hubbing. Your article makes me feel less overwhelmed with all there is to learn. The key you pointed out is to "Write." You can learn and tweek as you go along.
I too agree with your hub.Hubpages is nevermeant to earn quick money, you have to work with it and write quality article.
Only after a good amount of work you can expect money or earnings.Thanks for writing it!
WOW - Look what happens when your Internet goes out!! Yikes!!
@ Olaguma - Thanks for the vote up!! Glad you liked it!
@ Eloise Hope - Thanks for the kind words!! It will get easier as you go!
@ Kari Winchester - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you found help here!
@ askalexa - How long do you have to wait until you are no longer a minor? I think if you do nothing and let it be, you should be just fine.
@ MsDesign1 - You will get a lot of Hubbers that tell you not to worry about the Hub score, unless it goes below a certain level. Depending on the word count it will either start out at 49 or 50. It goes up or down from there. ALL HUBS DO THIS! I understand getting a good Hub score is like getting an A in school, we all want A's!! But it takes time to get them. Then if they aren't tended they will drop.. It just happens.. I don't understand how, but unless your Hub drops well below 50, not to worry. Your score can't rise if you don't publish it. Just write good content, try to get someone to proof read it and things will be just fine.
@ Annie67 - Absolutely!! As I got older my dreams changed and I began to dream of writing. Before I found HubPages I had written books, unpublished of course!! Follow your dreams!! Get to writing!
@ HeXis - You are most welcome!!

Well I'm a brand new hubber but I really enjoyed your article and this site. Looks like some great community and sharing!
Wow. Thank you very much. I just join the HUB about an hour ago and to get this "on the job training" is very useful. Thank you very much.
Excellent Hub. Thank you for sharing the information. Looking forward to reading more of your Hubs.

Great Stuff to keep in mind!
This is my first comment submission. I do have an interest to learn how to go about hubbing here at hubpages. I am not much into writing things out but I just feel that if I can be myself I don't have to worry about being so perfect. English is just my second language and I am in now way always correct in writing out well my thoughts. And so the way I read a few pages here make me feel a bit relaxed in beginning to work on my homeworks, yeah!
@ marriednokids - Thanks!
@ myhomeworks - LOL - well glad I could help you in your homework!
Thank you both for stopping by!
Excellent advice. I started Hubbing as an outlet after a nasty breakup. I am trying to write about other various things in my life. I find it a great release and wonderful way to express yourself. It seems hard to get traffic to my hubs, but I am patient. Im using Google+ and Facebook.
Thanks!! Yes, it is a great way to express oneself and get all those thoughts out of our heads!! I just use that extra space to make room for more!! LOL
I too use facebook, I also use myspace, stumbleupon, and twitter to get the word out!!
As a new Hubber, this is so helpful! You give great advice- definitely appreciated! Thanks so much!
Welcome to HubPages!! You are very welcome and I am glad I could help you!!
helps a lot! for starters!;)
Awesome!! Glad you liked it!
Thanks for heads up but i wasn't planning on putting in 40 hours a week lol...
I want the freedom, but this helps.
If you wanna swing by and check out my 1st Hub and give me some pointers be my 1st comment ;)
You are free to make it as you wish!! Lots or little! That's the beauty of HubPages..
This article is really helpful. Thanks.
Nicely put ;)
@ urmilashukla23 - You are very welcome!! Thanks for stopping by!
@ luvb3innatural - thanks!
Very very very Informative and engaging article. I have been writing for hubpages for 2 weeks and really enjoyed writing. Hubpages is a very good platform for new writers like me to improve their wrting skills and hubbers like you are the one who helps them to accomplish that task. From now on am your follower, do come to my page a check my stuff. ADVISES ARE ALWAYS WELCOMED.
Thanks for this great overview!
This article are useful to me. Thanks for your information.
@ Syed Awn Muhammad - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm so glad you are enjoying it here.
@ theseattlegirl - You are very welcome!!
@ proarticles - Glad you enjoyed it!!
Thank you for stopping by!
Just curious being new to hubpages and having written over 20 articles within 3 weeks. What does this mean?
25 Impressions
$3.56 CPM
$0.09 Dollars
Looks like this hub was a huge hit Sweetsusieg! I to enjoyed the helpful hints & tips, and will try to capitalize on all of your suggestions. Take Care & God Bless!!
@ B.A. Williams - It means that you have had 25 views that have been paid for, earning you 9 cents WTG!! That is a good thing!! It's a start!! We all have to start somewhere...
@ ClaudeV - Thank you!! So glad you enjoyed it and found some help here!!
Thanks Sweetsusieg but what is an average earning for a month? Because I am wondering if this is worth my time, or writing directly for companies is more profitable. I know we have to get a start, but concerned I might be contributing a lot, for little pay.
Not complaining just curious on the average earnings.
There is no average. Everyone is different because we all write about different things.
As far as writing directly for a company, well of course there is immediate gratification in that. Say for instance you write an article, you get paid $25 for it, it's over it's done there is no more money coming in from that, in fact, you no longer own that material. Once you hand it over it becomes the property of the company you wrote for. With HubPages you continue to earn on that same article. You are essentially getting paid over and over for the 1 writing.
If you want an actual break down, We'll just say that you are paid on the high end. You have written an Awesome article and someone wants to pay you $200 for it!! (Yes, I realize I am in the clouds with this number) They sell 1 million copies of that magazine in which your article resides. You are essentially being paid 0.0002 cents per magazine. That is equal to 2 millionth's of a penny. Where as you place your article here on HubPages and you are paid 9 cents for every 25 views (using your figures)... if you were to achieve 1,000,000 views that could potentially bring you $3600. Which sounds like a better deal to you? The $200 up front or the $3600 down the line?
Not only that, but you (as an unknown writer) you would have to spend time and energy getting someone to publish your work. Here with the click of a button you are published. Once you write it, it is then up to you to market it and get viewers. Or you can sit back and wait for people to find you. It's all up to you.
I used to have a steady job writing for an NBC affiliate until they merged with another company, and you're right thinking of the averages of being paid once, versus being paid continuously which is much better.
I like the concept of someone not owning the material as well...never thought of it in that aspect either.
Thanks for answering so quickly.
hi! I just joined hubpages. I was just actually looking for a free website that I can post just about anything other than face book and twitter. Every time i searched through google, I found suggestions on hubpages. Then I realized, when I searched for some things, I see hubpages. So I'm curious. I visited hubpagess and learned about it(though a little for now). It's interesting so I joined. Then I found this article. It was so good. I was so impressed. I wished I could be as successful as you.
Thank you so much for the advise on perseverance, I will keep that in mind when I don't see the fruits of my labor yet.
More power to you! God bless!!!
Great info i just started a couple of days ago and almost gave up on this thanks for a great hub
I think this article must be seen by maximum of people, maybe if you increase your seo level you earn visibility...
@ B. A. Williams - Wow, when I answered that I had no idea you had written for anyone other than HubPages!! Was I in the ballpark with the figures at all? I too like that I still 'own' my work. If for instance, something would happen to HubPages I could essentially remove my work and place it elsewhere on the net!!
@ pinaythoughts - Give it time!! You will find your own way at HubPages just fine. Best Wishes to you!! Thanks for your kind words!
@ mrvinnie007 - Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you decided to stay! Just remember... baby steps... It will be fine.
@ simijohn - thanks!!
Thank you all for stopping by!! Keep on writing!!
Yes you were, a 300 word count article paid about $100.00 and they needed approximately 6-7 per week. BUT they owned my work when published and it -was- a one time payment.
I appreciate all the info you gave, because I am writing two novels, one is being looked at by a publisher and the other is halfway finished.
So I was considering my time when I first asked the question and am happy to continue writing here too.
I appreciate the advice! Hubpages is still kind of Chinese for me and I am finding new stuff every day!
I am right there with you. All I can say is press on and when you need help ask. I have found that people here are greet at helping you figure things out
@ B.A. Williams - Awesome on the novels!! I need to spend some time re-typing my book, not a novel mind you.. just a book. I had sent it to my cousin a while back for her to proof read and get the poor-man's copyright!! Good thing too because my computer ATE THE WHOLE THING!! So now I'm re-typing it all. Which of course means I'll make changes, hopefully they are for the better! You'll have to keep me posted when the first one gets published so I can be one of your first customers!!
@ Cat R - Oh boy, I remember the feeling!! It took me quite a while and some 18 hour days on here to figure it all out!!
@ Annie67 - The people here are GREAT!! They will do their best to help out the newbies when needed!!
Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!! Keep on writing!
Any tips and tricks beyond this would be greatly appreciated!!!
It would be great if I could turn a 20 year hobby (writing) into something that could eventually provide some means to continue this hobby.
Doing what you love is most important!! The best thing I can say is 'Just keep writing!!'... That and market yourself!! Social networking sites are great for getting some readers. I have a few friends that have now begun to ask when my 'next' Hub, article or story will be shared. If it is good, they tend to pass it around as well.
This is such a useful information. Well, I guess no matter how good all that been said here, what's important still, is the patience and hard work in leading the way of success! earning money doesn't happen overtime. It takes a lot of trial and error process and you have to be ready facing all those if you want to earn big time! Thanks to hub, we all have our chance to earn what we deserves to have.
Thank you Sweetsusieg, I appreciate your advice. As I see many others do!
@ stephanie000 - Yes, this is true!! I'm very grateful that someone had the foresight to create such a place for us to put out our knowledge!!
@ Idaho Dan - Aww thanks!! It would appear that I do have quite a few comments wouldn't it? I certainly don't want them to stop!!
As I am new bee here, learn lot of thing from this HUB. Thank you so much sweets...
such a wonderful article.Its very useful tips.Thank you so much
@ gracioustech - Welcome!! So glad you enjoyed it!!
@ mohan - I'm very glad you liked it!!
I needed to hear all of that. I was thinking all that work I put into my two hubs and no money yet! What is the problem? You have allowed me to see the problem. The problem is me. You have encouraged me to do more, to put more time in my work. Thank you, Thank you. Do you have room for another follower?
Since I am neck-deep into Animal Rescue and so far my articles have been about pet related subjects, I post every new one on Facebook and repost some occasionally when they fit into the subject.
@ normanwinkfield - LOL well that is AWESOME!! Glad I could help you see the light! Yes, of course I have room for more followers!!
@ Cat R - If you can fit it into your busy schedule (having kids and pets I can understand!!) try to join a few other 'social networks' to be able to post your work. I use RedGage (Sweetsusieg is my user name) this also helps me make money. I use Gather, and that too brings me income, stumbleupon, myspace, (google)blog there are many others out there to use to get the word out!! More views = more income.
Thanks for stopping by!!
Wow. Thought I was busy. Am on myspace, but haven't had much response from there.
Thank you very much for your great advice! I am new Hubpages and I'm looking forward to having fun writing and making a little extra money doing so!
Earning money in HubPages.... I simply like the topic...
Great ideas. THanks. I'm just getting started and need all the suggestions and help i can get.
@ Cat R - LOL Yes, well it happens gradually not all at once!! My head would be spinning and I'd be vomiting pea soup if I tried to do it all in one day!!
@ staceymiller - Welcome to HubPages!! Thanks for the vote of confidence!!
@ amit007seo - Great isn't it?? LOL
@ joanwz - Thanks, glad I could help you!!
Thanks for stopping by and keep on writing!!
Wow! Susie this article is an eye-opener about how one should operate on Hubpages. Excellent read. Very well written indeed.
P.S. Your 100 Hubscore is seriously intimidating you know ;)
LOL - Don't let the Hub score get to ya!! It goes up and down as the wind blows.. It just depends on how many viewers etc.. (I think!!) Thanks so much for the lovely compliments!!
Very useful for me. I am among those who have not been able to consistently and focus of writing that is able to generate income. But after I found this paper, I find it very helpful as though there is enlightenment and enthusiasm to start again. Thank you very much for your advice mom. Hopefully the success continues to be with. :)
This was a very useful article
@ einudandi - LOL - So glad that I was able to help you!! Now get in your room and get to writing!! LOL
@ Candy - thanks
wow what a beautiful hub..i love it.
@Sweetsusieg: That's why I'm on my way creating my destiny through hub! I hope everyone's here will be having all their respective success! Thanks for the reply Sweetsusieg.
Hai sweetsusieg you are the one to blame for my taking the plunge.I DONT KNOW SWIMMING. LOL
@ shirley Phiri - Well thank you!!
@ stephanie000 - Oh you are most welcoem!! Cheers to your success!!
@ jayaram20c1 - Well aren't you the funny one!! LOL Make sure you plug your nose so you don't get water in it!! Quick run to the store, get some arm floaties!!
So, ok you're not going to drown here.. Just breathe, in and out through the nose... Whenever I get to feeling overwhelmed I stop for a few minutes, go play a game or walk around the house.. Do something a little different. Don't let it get to you and relax... You'll get it!! Baby steps... just take baby steps..
Thanks for stopping by!!
Could you tell me how to paste a link to hub or website? I am new to this. Referral tracker and URL and creating links. Could you explain how to do this. Thanks.
I am not sure what you mean. Depending on how you want to put in a link, there are a couple of ways. Do you want to highlight a word within a Hub, sending the person who clicks on it to another page? Do you want a complete link? Are you attempting to put your Hub link on another site?
As far as the referral tracker and URL the explanation for this is in the Help section. Top right hand corner of your page.
Oh wow. Thankyou so much. I am new to this and pretty lost but its nice to know that i will get better:)
Welcome to HubPages!! You were lost, but now you are found! (didn't that used to be in a song somewhere?) LOL So glad I could help you get encouraged!!
useful tips. thanks! especially of 'making money'
You Deserve Your 100 score and Number 1 spot.
Great share here and it will help many others to make money on their hubpages.
A Big Well Done!
Baz
This hub is excellent and sensible advice. This is the kind of hub you bookmark and come back to again and again. Good advice for newbies and a subtle reminder to the old-timers.
@ flover21 - You are welcome!! Glad you enjoyed!
@ Golfingbazza - Thank, but sad to say it probably won't last. It's been here a couple of times before and goes away again. I'm not sure why but it does. I guess to give everyone else a chance at the top!!
So glad you enjoyed it!!
@ KeithTax - Thanks for the bookmark! So glad you liked it!!
Thanks for stopping by, reading and commenting!!

I would love to see an article from you that teaches me to set up my google adsense. I cannot for the life of me figure it out, and would love to get it linked to my Hub. your explanation style is PERFECT for that sort of task!
I am a new hubber-you post help me a lot. Thanks a lot for your kind sharing! Looking forward to your next masterpiece~
Great Hub and very informative. I've been on hub pages for two years and I really haven't made much money but I love writing about anything. I think your hub helped me realize what I need to do to improve to be succesful. Thanks
Thank you Sweets for your insight. As a new hubber I will take your advice. Your information has been well received.
Thanks for your helpful hub, even know i been here for seven months, it as still helped me very much. So i thank you and wish all the best for the coming future.
@ Kari Winchester - Oooo with a last name like that could you imagine the fun you could have writing Hubs??!! Don't know if there is any relation to "The Winchester's" but fun thought still! Boy, it's been a while since I set up my Google Adsense account I'd really have to think on it!! Thank you for the lovely compliment on my explanation style!!
@ rockdresses - Welcome to HubPages!! Will give it a try on making a masterpiece!! LOL
@ GistingRosePetals - You are most welcome, glad I could give you that little shake!!
@ ConsciousMindz - Welcome to HubPages!! Thanks!
@ wereview4u - I'm so glad i could help you out!!

I love it! Winchester is my husband to be's last name, so I started my hub acct with it!!! I agree, I am excited for the pen worthy possibilities!
LOL - Just think of the possibilities!!! My maiden is Ward.... In school I had some fun with Montgomery Ward and making claims... to those who were mean to me anyway... hehehe
Thanks for your insight Sweetsuieg!
Thankyou
@ snakeslane - You are welcome!!
@ Violet - You are welcome too!!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you for this Hub! I'm brand new to this and I have been really frazzled about wanting to do everything to the best of my ability. I'm still working on my fist Hub, but I hope you will give me any advice once I post it!
- opinionsvary
Welcome to HubPages!! Don't be frazzled!! Easier said than done I know, I've been in your shoes!! Get it written, then published... then breathe!! Breathe in and out... It will get easier as you go.
Thank you for the great hub Susie. I just started this about 3 days ago, have published one hub and am working on a second. Last night just before turning my puter off I went into answers and recieved some alarming news. There were hubbers on there complaining that they had made 18 cents in six months! I found that very disturbing, as my first hub took several hours to write and research and my second is requiring even more effort. I went to bed asking myself 'is this even worth it?' As as writing enthusiast, the answer on one level is 'yes' because believe me, I've written entire books I haven't been paid for and will probably do it again and aggain, but my experience in Answers last night begged the question: Are there any financially successful hubbers out there? Your hub let me know it's possible, provided some useful how-to tips, and renewed my faith, tempered by realistic expectations. I do need to find out how to optimize my AdSense account though, that process has boggled the mind...
Well in all fairness, I CANNOT sugar coat it nor will I try. Yes, there are going to be days that will make you wonder 'Why am I still here?".... There will be days that you don't make a penny. But there will be days that you make several dollars. Not all my Hubs are money makers. Because I have so many, I can honestly say I don't know which ones make money.
If you look up ^ 4 days ago, I gave a pretty fair explanation to B.A. Williams of how it happens... feel free to read, that is IF you get discouraged!!
Yes, there are many very successful Hubbers here!! Most won't discuss their earnings. The reason is because EVERYONE makes a different amount. No one person makes the same. If I were to say I made X amount of dollars per day, everyone would EXPECT to make that amount, and if they didn't I would be blamed, called a liar and my reputation as a Hubber would suffer.
But keep with it, write more Hubs, make them good and you will do fine!! Do your best to write unique Hubs, you will get repeat visitors.
Best of Luck to you!!
this article was very informative. i just signed up today and i was just about to write my first hub and i wanted to look at some other writers work. just so happened that your page had i eye catching title and now i think i am ready to write my first hub.
Welcome to HubPages!! Well then... Get to writing!! Thanks for stopping by!
My humble apologies Sweetsusieg for spelling your name wrong earlier today!
Thanking you a lot for guidance. Wishing you a very long writer's life.
@ snakeslane - Not a problem!! It happens, no big deal!!
@ AUPADHYAY - Thank you very much for that wonderful wish!! I'm glad that you were able to find help here!
Hubpages just rockz.... I am fully satisfied. I have got all in one really. What should I call hubpages lol... An article directory? a social hubbers network? blog? blog promotion page? Just Awesome!
Also, I get a good amount of traffic to my blog which has nothing to show-off exactly LOL....
Btw, that was an inspirational one. :) Thanks
i wanted to say i voted useful and awesome BUT...
OMG...you have the highest rated comments in Hubpages i think ! LOL...
over 1k ? eye popping !...am a newbie here, i love the honesty of your words...
Thank you Mam..
@ allmytricks - HubPages is all that and more!! I really like it that it is monitored quite well by the administration as well. You do get noticed by the 'higher ups' as well, those who have been around for a while. Thanks for the lovely compliment!
@ Princess Pitt - Oh I'm sure there are other Hubs that have way more comments than I have! Just right now this one is on the front page. Hubs rise and fall naturally I think depending on the amount of views you get per day. I'm not exactly sure how all of it works. I remember the first time it hit the front page, I ran around my house doing the pee-pee dance!! It was very cool!!
Thank you both for stopping by!!
I love how you stated "Google’ is the hill, your Hub is the ‘ball"
Thanks for sharing some great advise! I voted it up :)
Thank you so much for this informative article. You are obviously well versed on the subject. I look forward to reading more of your work. I will definitely follow your example. Thanks again.

That's really not easy to make money by the google ad on the hubs. Thanks for your details.
Thanks SO much for this Hub - I've been a Hubber for just a few weeks now and am taking my time in building up hubs and getting to know about the systems, but am v excited about being part of this international community! I suspect I shall return again to this Hub, to read your wise advice over and over! Best bit of advice - Just keep writing - it's why I joined Hub Pages and thanks for the reminder and encouragement.
Thanks for the great advice!
@ NemoPDF -It just takes time... It will come!

@ bestbrother - LOL, give it time, you will!!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Thanks I too dedicate number of hours to hubpages but still have 0 earnings. I was totally demoralized but after going through your hub I feel I should wait for another couple of days while working hard and continuously for making my hub page look a real good one.
I just joined last night and I haven't checked out too many Hubs yet, but this was very helpful. I'm still trying to figure this site out and this definitely gave me some direction.
Great Hub!! The bottom line question is are you really making money with your Hubs? Just curious. For me, I write to help people become aware of how they can experience more miracles in their life. Peace and Light: Gary. P.S.
I was born and raised in Michigan and now we live in Cave Junction, Oregon. More sunshine out here.
@ ershruti304 - Yes. well I can tell you honestly that with 6 Hubs you will not be making much money. It is going to take more than that. You will also need to write Hubs that people want to read. That is the key. Finding a subject then expounding on it. what is the subject? That my friend is the million dollar question!! Best of Luck!!
@ JEDIJESSICUH - Welcome to HubPages!!
@ qlcoach - It varies from day to day, but yes I do make money. Yes, I have cashed out twice. A while ago Google changed a lot of things, I happened to be one that was hit hard by it. But now things are picking up again. I am almost ready to reach the threshold for HubPages as well... So that will make a nice payday for me!! I'm hoping to save it all for Christmas!! By then I will have 12 Grandchildren to buy for!! So I'm gonna need every penny of it...
Thank you all for stopping by!! Hang on and just keep writing!!
Hi, Susie! I just signed up and published a hub... And this is very encouraging and inspiring. I hope it works well for me. :)
Good job! Way to get going!! Welcome to HubPages and keep on writing!!
A very useful article, this clearly outlines ways for us newcomers to get a little revenue coming in. Only one thing disturbs me on hubpages: the writing quality is poorer than I had hoped. I worry that good writers are sacrificing their craft for the sake of dollars.
I found a usage fault in your article. I'm not going to post it for all to see unless you give me permission, and I give you permission to find faults in my articles. Let's help each other become better at this job we're doing.
@ flannery - Well HubPages is open to the public, sending in a 'sample' of your writing is not necessary and there is no application processes to go through. You will find some writing that is poor. Over time those will be weeded out by the administration.
Folks are looking for ways to earn income. Some of the writers here make a very good income from HubPages, those are listed on the introduction pages. Many people from other Countries are allowed to write on HubPages, the only requirement is it has to be written in English.
I am sure that there is fault in this Hub, feel free to write what you wish. Keep in mind the date of this Hub, things may have changed since it was first published!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Nice Hub Susie! Concise and optimistic! Appreciate it.
Great hub, Susie! I voted up and useful :)
Very informative hub, many thanks.
Terrific hub thank you! Very easy to read and interesting. I have noticed what you said about ideas coming at the oddest of times. I just signed up 2 days ago and have a notepad with me at all times to write down good ideas that randomly pop into my head! Cheers
very good hub!I love your writing,it's really helpful.
Nice hub. Very good advice. I enjoyed reading this and you have a nice writing style.
No wonder you have so many comments, it's a beautifully written piece, your profession shines through each phrase, I am new to Hubpages this is my one week anniversary and it's such a huge learning curve but I love to learn so I'm enjoying it immensely, if only I didn't have to work I could get so much more done, hate going to bed now - so much to do - thanks for sharing.
@ dagny roth - Thanks, So glad you enjoyed it!!
@ MonetteforJack - Glad you liked it and thanks for the votes up!
@ vonoss - I am sorry, but that is the one requirement HubPages has, it has to be written in English and must be able to be understood. As far as helping, I'd have no idea how to do so.
@ Jools99 - Many welcomes to you!!
@ Mummy Tales - LOL That's great! I still have scraps of paper all over the place with jotted information on them, tucked in all the crevices of my purse or pockets. My daughter bought me the book, then she 'borrowed' it. I think I may get one of those little memo pads..
@ povmang - Thanks! So glad you were helped.
@ suzettenaples - Thank you. I think my writing style has developed over the years as it is because of all my kids.
@ Eileen Goodall - What a nice compliment!! Thank you! Welcome to HubPages!!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
Great! Thank you for providing that insight and advice. I am following most of your advice but you highlighted things I didn't know. Thanks again.

Very great Sweet
a valuable information for me
Wow, this was really great Hub.I already knew that I can't make money without work, but I found info like I need several hubs to get Google approved.My mother-language is Serbian, so English is not my native language.But, still - I will keep up hard work,and continue to write about things that I find interesting.
@ harryjee - So glad you enjoyed!!
@ Check021 - For English not being your native language you seem to be doing very well! I'm glad you found something helpful in here!
Thanks for stopping by!

Hi sweetsusieg and all the other hubbers here. I am glad to meet you, and I did find this page very informative.
Some of the hubbers here relating their measly or non-existent earnings with adsense is a bit discouraging, because now I am wondering if I should pursue this, but I am not a quitter either.
It would be wonderful to hear from the big earners with hubpages, inspiration is not overated. LOL. It may be posted in all the comments here, but there are so many that I haven't had a chance to read all, but I will.
Good night.
sharewhatuknow
wow thank you ma . Am new to hub pls i will need your help here ma my number is +2347066645700 i will be very happy if you can give me a call on that number thank you ma
I was only surfing cyberspace for something-, anything-, I don't remember what; then, out of nowhere, I'm h e r e! Where am I? Really! I'm not kidding!
Nevertheless, my interest was triggered by the "things" I saw and read HERE. I think I got lost while wandering; but I got lost in a nice place! You know? This is now becoming a manifestly wonderful place - for me - that is.
This is VERY helpful... I love the way you put everything out there so plainly without the techno mumbo jumbo leaving the reader feeling like they are smack dab in the middle of tomfoolery. Your sense of humor twinkles through too :) Dig that. I like the way you laid it out with the comparisons to a real job too... nice.
Really good advice for a newcomer, thank you for posting this!
hi sweetsusieg,
A really good hub for new hubbers like me written in simple language that makes it easy to follow.Some really great comments and useful info too as you answer them.
This hub deserves all the positive comments it has and more.Many thanks from the bottom of my heart.
This was really great Hub.I already knew that I can't make money without work, but I found info like I need several hubs to get Google approved.
I may have commented before on this wonderful hub...but just in case I haven't yet...Great Work!
Thank youuuu!~ Great Hub! Lots of helpful material :)
Thanks so much for sharing great opportunity info on this hub on earning money, I never had anything so helpful to point me in a positive direction. Thanks!
This is a great no-nonsense primer to writing on hubpages. I have a day job but want to eventually write full time. This hub is really helpful to the newbies who need direction. From reading this, I know I need to have at least five articles written before I post them so I can get on board with Google Adsense. Thanks for the great advice!
Hi its just been 3 days i joined the community and thanks a lot to great help. and i wrote 2 hubs and signed with Google ad sense as am doing my journalism degree its really make me happy when i write. thanks again........
A very useful guide indeed, I'm glad someone's there to spell it out so easily for newbies like myself! You've clearly mastered some key components to making money on here and I'm glad to have the opportunity to learn.
Thanks for this!
Thanks for the useful info,you really simplified everything in this hub. :)
Hi sweet susieg, first question, when do you sleep? This is a great lesson now that i am still studing it,I feel this is a great course. Thank you soo much for being a wonderful person.How are they treating you over at Redgage? I had mix felling. I might go back. what do you think?
Thank you, this article was very helpful since I am fairly new to writing on hub.
I want to be like you I become a hubber, I am a newbie and have published 2. Really great info here. I like how your layout. Your right if one wants this as a job, you got to put in the hours, and a lot at first to boot. I just wish I could put my son on auto pilot I would be on my 50th hub by now
Sweetsusieg-
Thank you for your valuable insights on this well written Hub! I'm thinking about putting alot more time into Hubpages and need all the good advise I can get! I've written eight hubs and will get started with my profile. I need to certainly consider my fellow Hubbers as coworkers and value those important relationships. Regards-WBA
I agree with wba108. We are all coworkers and should really value feedback!
This is a very useful article especially for me who is a very new blogger and hubber. I hope I get the hang of this soon.
@ Eliana12 - LOL, no not the first, but ALWAYS appreciated! Thanks!
@ nicregi - Well Thank you!!
@ sharewhatuknow - I think more than anything some won't tell what they make because then it could be assumed that that would be the 'norm'. Each day is a new individual experience on HubPages and Google Adesense. Everything is dependent on the whimsy of the reader.
@ ONYEDIKING - So sorry but my phone service doesn't allow me to call out of Country! The best advice I can give is to just keep reading the various articles on HubPages and keep learning. It will come!!
@ Manuel Mabalot - LOL well isn't that something!! But now that you're here, welcome!!
@ mariefontaine - You are welcome!! I'm so glad you enjoyed this, I kind of go my own way when writing, I am sure there are many who could find fault with this, but... well I've always liked to dance to the beat of my own drum. To me, that is what writing is all about. Write what you feel and then hope someone likes it!!
@ Maureen Refior - You are very welcome!! Thanks for stopping by!
@ rajan jolly - Awww, Thank you!! What very kind words you have said!

@ cheryl castaneda - I am sure that you will catch on soon!! Best of Luck to you!
To second the many many comments above, thanks for the very useful words of advice and encouragement!
I wrote my first hub here yesterday and intend it to be the first of many.
Seems the best way to make money on Hubpages is to write an article about how to make money on Hubpages. Cripes, the comment section alone crashed my browser twice!
i am a new hubber and i must say i found this article interesting and rewarding, hard work is the key most definately!
This is a very interesting article for a new hub like me, who is still trying to learn the ropes
I find it inspiring how this post is a year old and is still getting the newbies a great sense of inspiration to write. Bless you for paying it forward!
Thank you for this article! I just joined yesterday and this was very helpful to me. I will probably refer back to it from time to time. Thanks again!
Thank you Mam. i got it. it is much information for me and for those who are beginers.
This is awesome! I just discovered HubPages and I am just fascinated about what this site stands for! Thanks for a great intro!
Just wondering if 75 cents is a good start for 8 hubs and two weeks. It seems like you would have to have hundreds of hubs to make any money.
Good question
@ Jellyfishaudio - Thank you very much!! Any comments are greatly appreciated even if they 'second that motion'!!
@ Jarn - Oh my!!! LOL Well, folks are always wanting to find out how to make money and this was my thoughts. So I suppose you could have a point there. I will tell you there are a great many articles on here that are wonderful!
@ mariajob - There are no easy fixes for making money these days... Hard work is the key all around.
@ Emmanuel Udom - Give it time, it will come!! Welcome to HubPages!
@ jenubouka - Well thank you, So Glad I could help!!
@ radavis - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm sure you are going to do just fine!
@ Trixever - You are very welcome!!
@ SKT316 - You are very welcome!! It is a great place to get your feet wet with writing!
@ cgreen7090 - Yes, .75 cents is VERY good for 2 weeks and 8 hubs!! Many of us here at HubPages do have hundreds of Hubs. Just imagine the possibilities!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
Awesome hub!
Thanks!! So glad you liked it!
Hi, I am a relatively new hubber so am not expecting to make a lot of money right away but it would be nice to earn a little bit! Your advice was really useful and I hope as I go I will pick up more ways to drive traffic to my site and hopefully write articles that amuse and inform.
Yes, it does take a little bit of time to begin earning. I'm glad I could help you a little bit.
Thanks for all the info and advice here, Sweetsusieg! This is very helpful for a new hubber! Cheers!
You are very welcome!! So glad that you enjoyed it!
I agree with everything that you have written! Thanks for putting this together.
*Misty
You are very welcome!! Thanks for stopping by!
You are very welcome!! Thanks for stopping by!
Well all i can say is a big thanks , i was a bit confused about how to make money over here and this hub has helped mea a great deal. Thanks a ton
You are very welcome!! Glad I could help!
i wish i could write informative articles like you do. It`s a real masterpiece you`ve got here.
More ink to your pen
What a nice compliment!!! Thank you! Give it time, it will come!! Now you've got my head all swelled up!! Sheesh... LOL
Very, very useful article. I just got started on HubPages and the nice part that I'm finding is that even though I know it's going to take a long time to start earning a really good passive income, being able to write about whatever interests me makes it seem like much less of a chore getting there.
Thanks!! Yep, it will take some time... But writing and getting it off your chest makes it all worthwhile!!
Thanks for this. I'm a real newbie as I only joined today, but I've managed to get 2 hubs up and running and love to write so here's hoping! Really useful - thank you.
Glad you enjoyed!! Sorry I didn't answer sooner but it didn't come up in my news feed. Best of luck to you in you endeavors!!
Nice hub, simple but with all information. Also it is a great reading to get motivated.
Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it!!
Thanks for the motivation. My first hub was snatched, and I never received a response after the edit I performed. I am still waiting though. I guess the hubpage company doesn't like when you reference articles. That was my problem-even though most of the info was from what I actually know and practice. Maybe I will try again, after they grade my edited hub. Hehehe!
So sorry to hear that!! Not a good first experience at all! Try a different Hub and see how that goes. I have removed a couple of Hubs because they said they were too personal. That's quite alright, I've placed them elsewhere.
Great article and very helpful to a new hubber as myself! Thank you!
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it!!
I enjoyed your article as well. My hubs seem to be very slowly gaining traction. I enjoyed your analogies about google and the hill to climb.
Thanks for the advise! I'm brand new to the hub world. I have only written one hub and working on another.
This is so true! The money comes over time and persistence in writing is the key. Those who only write a few hubs and think that they will be earning substantial money will be disappointed. Good advice for the new writers and good reminders for those who have been here a while. Voted useful and up!
I'm not sure what is going on with my email - Sorry it has taken me so long to get back with you!!
@ equine - I really enjoy analogies, my kids, well not so much.
@ kmkellum- Welcome to HubPages!! Are you planning your second Hub??
@ Peggy W - Thanks Peggy!! When I first started writing I had seen so many folks in the comment section make comments about when and how much they would make. Then I seen a read a comment from a man who was absolutely irate. He HAD been a columnist or writer of some such degree and was actually demanding payment. Apparently he didn't understand the concept of what was going on here and there was a lot of confusion on how folks earned money.
Anything good just takes time.
Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!!
Nice finding Nemo video at the end, which is actually quite motivational!
LOL - Thanks!! Yes, I've always liked that part of the movie. Just keeps swimming (writing)...
HI I am a newbe joined 4 days to hubs and agree you need to put in the work from Trinidad and Tobago
Welcome to HubPages!! I'm sure you're going to enjoy it!!
Great stuff. Totally right about making the time. You get out what you put in.
Thanks!!
Very encouraging and useful Hub! Thanks - look forward to reading your other work. GClark
Thanks for stopping by! Glad I could be of help! I look forward to seeing your comments as well.
Hub Pages is a great community indeed, Newbies are welcomed like new kids in the family, Loving it A lot.
Thanks for your kind words it's really helpful.
Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you are finding it a great community!! Thanks for stopping by!!
Great information for a new Hubber such as me! Very well written and a lot of useful information for me to put to use. I appreciate your advice and may I be on my way to successful hubbing.
Welcome to HubPages!! So glad you made it! I'm sure with an attitude like that you'll find it very warm and welcoming here! Best wishes to you!!
Sweet Susie ~ I believe this may be the longest hubpages in the community. I just clicked to make it "794" useful clicks. You know that's a whole lot because the majority of people who read an article never click, comment or vote. That means thousands of people have read this and learned from you. Blessings, Debby
A very honest and realistic hub thanks
Great hub, thanks so much! Just a quick question, how long does it usually take a Google Adsense account to be approved. I've been waiting 3 weeks!
This is an AWESOME article! I really enjoyed reading this and will read this again as a reminder! Thanks!
@ Debby Bruck - LOL I have forgotten to check the 'useful' in a while... WOW 794. Well there are quite a few views that have happened on this hub I will say that... Thank you so much for your kind words!
@ Tricia Ward - Thank you. I'm so glad you liked it!
@ sabraini44 -You are very welcome!! As far as google, I'm not sure, you may have to contact them for the information.
@ smarter4ever - Thanks!! So glad you enjoyed it! Come back anytime!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!!
"Just Keep Writing" Yes. This is the most valuable fact. Awesome hub. Voted Up.
Good information and I enjoyed reading it. I like the subtitle "what kind of employee are you". Very interesting.
I'm so glad I found this information. I'll be coming back to read it again, too. Thank you.
Hi! I really enjoyed your article & it was truly helpful. Thank you so much. Happy New Year!
Thank you! I am new to Hubpages and some of this is a bit confusing. You really helped me. I am happy to start following you and see what else you write and look at other comments. Happy Holidays!
THank you for this great source of info. Being brand new to Hub Pages myself, I want to learn as much as I can. I'm loving it thus far and I can't wait to learn more each day. Merry Christmas and Blessings!
Lisa~Rustic Living
This is a really helpful Hub and I'll keep on coming back, time and again. Thank you for putting it so clearly.
Sorry for the delay in replying - Christmas came and I was very busy with kids, projects and helping another!!
@ dumindu89 - That's my BEST advice!! Just keep writing!!
@ Ruchi Urvashi - Have you decided? What kind of employee are you? LOL
@ BlossomSB - well Thank you!! I'm so glad I could help!!
@ FalconSays - Happy New Year to you!! I'm glad that this was helpful to you!!
@ SpecialKids - Welcome to HubPages!! Thank you for the lovely comment!!
@ Rusticliving - Welcome to Hubpages too!! There is so much information to be found on this site!! I hope you had a very Merry Christmas as well!!
@ BlossomSB - Well glad to see you back again!!
Thank you all for stopping by!! Hope you all had the BEST Holiday imaginable!!
Very helpful article. happy new year!
Very useful hub and informative.Thanks for sharing.
Happy New year sweetsu.....
I am still basically a newbie to hubpages, but am learning as I go. Thank you for sharing what I need to be doing in order to become more successful. (I have made a few cents here and there already :) My biggest problem is TIME! I do like to publish hubs and lenses, but I like to only put out high quality work, and I find that takes a while! I am a full-time Web Designer/SEO/Affiliate Marketer/Stay-at-Home Mom, so my hubbbing usually has to take the backseat... I am looking forward to getting more hubs published soon!
@ urmilashukla23 - Thanks!! So glad you found a little help here!!
@ geetbhim - You are most welcome, Thanks for Stopping by! Happy New Year to you as well!!
@ healthwealthmusic - Yes, time is what we all need a little more of isn't it? I've been working in a few other areas lately and haven't been doing a lot of writing. I am still working though!! That is the key for me, keeping busy! Best wishes to you in the new year!!
Wonderful hub for us newbies! I am 2 months and 17 hubs in. Making a little each month and it continues to grow. I love to read helpful hubs. Youre wonderful, please keep helping. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and wish you a very happy and prosperous New Year! :) Voted up, useful and following.
Well, Thank You very much!! I did have a very nice Christmas, a little different each year it seems. Still very enjoyable though. Welcome to HubPages!! Best of luck to you in the following year here at HubPages!!!
Lots of useful information - it certainly does deserve to be on the list of best hubs.
Thank you very much for writing this hub. As a newbie, there is a lot to take in and hubs like this one are very helpful in pointing me in the right direction.
Great hub for starters. Very informative, well laid out and simple-the way it should be.
One thing that I observed is that you have taken out the time to reply to each and every comment, be it a one-liner.
That's absolutely amazing.
Thanks for the interesting hub. Persistence and determination are they keys to success and it looks like you have both. Nice tips and suggestions. I appreciate the information.
Great article! Congratulation, you have got so many comments!
Thank you Susie, great article for newbies like me. We'll check in with you and look for your pointers.
@ Millionaire Tips - Thank you!!
@ bloggernotjogger - I'm so glad I could be of help to you!!
@ Innovative10 - Well I certainly do try! I figure if folks take the time to comment the least I can do is let them know I read it!! Thanks so much for the lovely compliment!!
@ cabmgmnt - Glad I could be of a little help to you!! As with anything in life ya got to want it, then be willing to work for it!
@ jainismus - LOL Yes, they are getting up there aren't they? Thanks for stopping by!!
@ ringlawncare - You are very welcome!! Welcome to HubPages too!!
Thank you all for stopping by!!
@
great hub. very informative and awesome structure and layout. Definitely a good role model for newbie writers. Thank you :)
Gr8 work, guess I was lucky that this hub was one of the first ones I read while researching on hubpages...Should keep me going...thnx for the encouragment!!!
Useful information is always welcome
Wow! You're very blessed Sussie. You'll surely lure up all the newbies for this very helpful and informative hub.
This is an example of how a hub is done.
Simple. Honest. Informative. Good presentation.
I'm happy for you. =)
@ S.C. Vital Speed - Thanks for the wonderful comment!!
@ vasmenon - I'm so glad that it was for you! I certainly hope it helps!!
@ omarjakefit - Thanks!!
@ rLcasaLme - I do my best to keep it simple!! At one time my kids (with whom I test all my writing on) told me "Mom, why do you have to make it so hard to read? If I want to read big words I'll read a dictionary!" So I've toned it down a bit, tried to make it so folks can read it without having to use a dictionary by their side.
Thank you all for stopping by!!
I am a newbie in Hubpages and definitely benefited from your sharing. Thank you Susie!! Happy new year!!!
Great hub! Thank you for sharing this!
Very good tips and easy to read and understand - motivational too
Voted up and sharing
@ surelucky - Welcome to HubPages!! You are very welcome! Happy New Year to you as well!
@ missolve - Thanks!! So glad you enjoyed!!
@ surelucky - Welcome to HubPages!! You are very welcome! Happy New Year to you as well!
@ missolve - Thanks!! So glad you enjoyed!!
Thanks so much for your advice. Will keep in mind. Thanks again.
Very useful info for a Hubbing newbie like me!
I love writing and would be thrilled if I could make a living at it. I suppose that's the dream of every writer, but everyone needs to have something to work towards.
Thanks for the wonderful advice!
@ ourscompany - you are very welcome!
@ nwonderlin- Welcome to Hubpages!! This is so true!! I have wanted myself to publish a book and I still might, one never knows where the winds will blow, do they?
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
Great advice. It would be nice to try and make money from the things we love to do. Anything good is worth doing!
Very informative Hub! I got so much out of it! I am new to the Hub page world. I love it when things are written in a nutshell.
@ cbpoet - I have to agree!! So glad you stopped by!
@ calico Stark - Thanks! Welcome to HubPages!! I hope that you really enjoy the community too!
I'm very new to the Hub page world, too, and I'm finding it is so much fun! I like the feel of belonging to the community and there is so much useful information available, including yours. I've had my www.thatmightypen.com for about six months now and, while I enjoy writing the articles, it hasn't earned me a penny. I've already earned 10c with my few hubs. Thank you!
This is great!!! Thanks for the good advice I'm new and could use all the advice I can get. Keep on shinin!! 1NELOVE!
well this hub is a classic and i love it just keep it up...thanks
So many thanks @Sweetsusieg. I found it very helpful. I press the Vote up as i think you deserve that. I am a newbie here and got some auspicious advises. I will follow your instructions writing a hub. I think i can do better now. I love hub page.
I love it too. It is such fun.
Thank you for writing such a great hub!!! I've been writing hubs for about a month; so far it's been very theraputic for me. Writing gives me a chance to express myself in ways that I never felt possible. At times, I find myself having writer's block. It also helps me when I read other hubber's articles......like yours. That way, I can come up with some fresh ideas!!! Keep up the good work.
Great advise, thanks
@ BlossomSB - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm so glad that you are finding it a great place as well.
@ Godzangel - I really love your name!! I'm more than happy to help when I can!
@ donrich - Classic - Very cool, I like that!!
@ adu9 - Welcome to HubPages!! I'm so glad you're enjoying yourself here!!
@ BlossomSB - Glad you stopped in again!!
@ nina64 - I found some great ideas reading the comments as well, just a word or partial comment could get my fingers a-flyin'!!
R9139 - You are very welcome!!
Well written and positive hub. I don't know if I agree with all that you've said, but much of it is probably correct - thanks
Very Helpful! Thanks!
Good instructions You really wrote some things I could use.
Good Hub, very useful. I like the step-by-step approach you go about it
@ John Sarkis - I'm sure there are variables that would make a difference, as in anything. This was just worked for me. Thanks for stopping by.
@ tonyfischer - You are very welcome!!
@ Billjordan - I'm so glad I could be helpful!
@ marwan asmar - Thanks!!
Thanks you all for stopping by - Just keep on writing!
First of all its my pleasure to come across this hub. Its indeed a well written, with quality information. I have read several hubs about making money on-line with hub pages. This is one of those good ones according to my personal ranking. For newbies. this is a resource not to be missed.HP is not a get rich quick site. It takes a lot of work to build the traffic required in ones site. I write and write and still I keep learning. I'm glad it works that way. Gain this is a great hub and it voted up. Definitely will be back to read more.
Thanks @Sweetsusieg for replying.
@ Ian Dabasori Hetr - I too had done the same, then spent a little time figuring this all out. There were some Hubs that made it sound SO easy but then when I got started I realized it wasn't. To me that seemed a bit like false advertising so I really wanted to write a more truthful Hub. I hope that most folks are like me, when they go seeking information they don't want to wade through gobbledygook. So I did what I could!! I'm so glad you like it!! Thank you for the fantastic comment and the thumbs up!!
@ adu9 - Not a problem!!
Thank you for stopping by and commenting!!
Thank you so much for your informative, simply written Hub! you seem to have caught on well to the flow of this community and I will most definitely try to learn from you.
I enjoy writing at hubpages because it allows me to get a message out while learning to become a better writer. If I make a little residual income even better.
This was a great article to read for a new "Hubber" like myself. It was very informative and went through everything I need to know without feeling overwhelmed.
Thank you...
Great hub! I really enjoyed reading it.
I'm somewhat of a newbie to hubwriting. So far, it's been a lot of fun because I get to express my thoughts. I'm still trying to get a feel for all the technical aspects of hubwriting. I've been commenting on a lot of different hubs with different subject matters. I guess the more I write, the better I will be over time. All the technical terms seem confusing at times, but I'm going to be persistent and not give up. As for the making money aspect of hubwriting, I do get a bit concerned when I see my hubscores go up and down, and I'm unsure as to what those numbers mean. I'm not looking to make any large amounts of money at this point, I just want to have fun writing. Keep up the good work.
nina64 I love how you are thinking. Have fun writing. Money will come after. We all are probably here because of the fact that we are passionate about writing. If that's the case, lets have fun. Write and write. Practise makes perfect. With time you will develop the technical aspect of your writing. Dont rush in. Take your time and learn at your own phase. Im sure you will do great in years to come. I'm looking forward to reading your hubs.
Good luck
Ian
Thanks for the advice and will have to work on my end.
Ian's comment of needing to take our time and learn at our own pace is useful, otherwise hubbing could become stressful, rather than fun.
This is really great ..This post really helps for newbies ,Those who want to start money with hubpages..
@ Frierva - You are very welcome, I'm so glad I could help!!
@ woodamarc - That's the VERY reason I joined HubPages as well!!
@ hansenslawncare - Welcome to HubPages!! I certainly do understand that 'over whelmed' feeling from something new! Sometimes folks leave a site because of that! I'm so glad I could help!
@ HauserQ - Thanks!!
@ nina64 - I'm not much on writing techie hubs, I'll leave that to the pros. I'd much rather (and feel more comfortable doing it) write in my language, if I feel it's getting a bit technical I have a tendency to give my definition of something, which is always much simpler. I think if the secret of Hub/Author scores were known some folks might try to manipulate them, try not to let it get to you, and roll with the flow.
@ Ian Dabasori Hetr - ABSOLUTELY!! This is what HubPages is all about, helping one another!!
@ daisynicolas - You are very welcome!!
@ Blossom SB - This is correct. I love that he is trying to help others!!
@ htodd - Thanks!!
Thank you all for stopping by - I hope this year is the BEST for you and you find 2012 most successful!!
Great information for new hubbers! I will definitely follow to keep inspiration! Thanks for sharing
I found myself wanting to make sure I "saved" your hub as I was reading it- like it was a web address that would get away from me if my internet connection failed me! Thank you for breaking down the entire process for us baby hubbers to follow. I will refer back to your hub often. I am in between jobs in a brand new city and state 1,700 miles from what I am most familiar and comfortable with so writing is my outlet. Because of your hub, I hope to be a successful and happy hubber in the future. Thanks, Liz
This article is very informative, and I've found it very useful! Thank you for putting the time in to write it.
Thank you! This was not only interesting but very inspirational :)
This made for an interesting read, thank you.
nice article - i'd love to get 1400+ comments on a hub! wow!!!! feels a bit out of my reach at the minute!!!
Very useful, clearly written and user-friendly. I'm getting started and it's just what I need. I have more hubs in the making and you've spurred me on. Thanks
Nice Dear
This is a GREAT hub, full of awesome advice. For old or new hubbers, this is either a good starter point or refresher for us "old" folks.
Thank you so much, Ladybird
Thanks so much! I'm new and loved reading this hub!
@ prism3x - Thanks!! So glad you enjoyed!!
@ ejacksonberg - Welcome to HubPages!! I know how hard it is being away from 'home'... very hard indeed! Make sure you keep writing, it is so much easier than anti-depressants!! LOL

This is a very resourceful hub. Infect I kind got my head cleared now after reading this hub. Thanks so much.
You are very welcome!
Thanks. Your hub was very easy to follow and as a new hubber it was very helpful. Thanks for all the information!
This is a great hub. It is so forthcoming with terrific advice. I agree that a huge benefit of HubPages is the flexibility of being able to write whenever you have time but it is true that it does take hard work. It is so motivating of you to suggest that we consider fellow hubbers to be our "coworkers". We are all in this together, trying to make it a very lucrative experience for us and we have lots of fun along the way. Voted up. Cheers!
This is really very very helpful for beginner's like me. I am new to hubpages and my first view was ur hub which gave strength and confidence to start my career over here. Thank you so much and i am so glad to have so many successful people over here in hubpages.
Thanks so much for all this good info; I just became a "hubber",and am finding out there is a lot to learn. This article really helps!

Three hubs up, and thoughts of new ones growing in my mind as I type! Thanks for taking the time to share this with us!
very useful, insistance is the most inportant one.
Now people get earnings more by doing online work. This is really very informative.

As a new hubber, I really found this information useful. Thanks for sharing! Voted Up!
Thank you for this HUB Sweetsusieg. I am new to the world of online writing. Glad to know you're also from Michigan. A former Michiganer, I still have family in the Shelby area, Macomb County. So I have a very soft spot for the State.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I just joined the Hub today and I found it very helpful. I can't wait to get started!
@ ingenioustech - Well Thank you!! I'm so glad that I could help you in your endeavors!
@ Maximizer - Well I am only touching the skirts of HubPages with this Hub, there is a lot more to learn!!
@ TraciAmbrose - Welcome to HubPages!! Glad you enjoy!
@ VidaLovesLife - Michigan is a beautiful State!! It's always nice to meet another Michigander!
@ twocuriousgeorge - Not a problem, I was very glad to do so!
Thanks for stopping by!! Best wishes to all of you!
Great hub. I like that you made mention that people should keep in mind that they're writing something like a magazine rather than texting.
LOL - I've seen a few Hubs that were similar to texting and I thought "Don't these folks know this is 'for real' writing?". Thanks for stopping by!
I haven't read through all of the comments, but there is also the HubPages Ad Program. This program was incorporated after your Hub was written, so perhaps you could add it to the Hub itself. Your Hub is very thorough and to the point. Stressing the fact there will not be a paycheck at the end of the first week is important; so many people think they can write a few articles and then the big money will start rolling in. I have been here two years and am now just seeing my earnings increasing. The key is to keep writing and be patient. Amazon and Google Adsense are important programs for anyone serious about making money on here. Great Hub! Keep up the good work!
Nice Tutorial and I am looking forward to start using hubpages. it is nice inspirational to start.
thanks for all the info! it's very valuable to me as a new hubber! I am really enjoying the writng bit, but I am still fnding everything a bit of a maze! i will persist though, as i am loving it! pls could you look at my hubs and post any suggestions/comments about how to improve them? again thanks a million!
@ brsmom68 - Yes, the ad program started quite a while after this Hub was written, there is a few comments regarding it ^way up there... There are a lot of comments to go through!!
@ Ilyas - Thanks! Glad you stopped by!
@ tracy imevbore - Welcome to HubPages!! It sure is loads of fun! Just keep plugging along!!
Thanks for stopping by!!
When I started reading this Hub, I noticed the scroll bar on the right hand side of the browser. By the scale of the scroll bar I thought, "I need to fix a sandwich and settle in for the long haul." Then I got to the end much sooner than I expected and realized there must be hundreds of comments.
A very useful and informative hub. The thing I agree with most strongly, which confirms what I have been learning in my young writing career (I'm not young - 48 years old - but my writing career is just two years old): nothing comes quickly or without hard work. You just have to put in the effort and the time, and results will come eventually.
I've self-published two books and have quite a few others started, half-finished, nearly done.
Work hard and write quality material, and be patient.
So tell me, did you enjoy your sandwich!! LOL Thanks for the grin! Ahhh, but you are as young as you wish to be!! The mind is an awesome thing isn't it? I still see myself as a younger person (Yeah, just celebrated the 1/2 Century mark) but when I look in the mirror I'm surprised every time. Whistler's mother didn't get started in her painting career until she was in her 70's... Heck, I got a few years to change my major!!
Thanks so much for stopping by! I do happen to have a real long Hub if your still hungry. http://sweetsusieg.hubpages.com/hub/my-pet-my-chil
It's one of those, get out your tissue kind of Hub though.. True story and it still makes me cry...
THAT WAS VERY HELPFUL. I WILL FOLLOW YOUR ADVICE , THANK-YOU JOYCE WHITAKER
Great advice Sweetsusieg, but i cannot understand earning setting, plz tel me how wil i do adsence account?
@ lovelynanny - Thanks!! So glad you enjoyed it!!
@ jsprasanna - You have to apply for an adsense account, HubPages has provided a link for you to follow, but it is not part of HubPages. Depending on how many Hubs you have it may take a few days to get approved.
very useful article but I am finding it hard publish a new hub
This was a very informative hub for newbies! Well done! I need to do more hub-hopping. Haven't done much in a while. It's the time thing!
Good one.
Interesting and informative hub. Thanks for the great advice!
Hey thanks for your great info I unfortunately am someone who does not read all the instructions so reading this has really got me up to speed on things. One question are you allowed to put links in your comments back to your own Blog ( proberly should read the rules right)
Thanks again
Bob the Optician guy
@ Yaduvanshi - What I do is get it all written on another writing program first. That way I won't lose it should something go wrong, since I save it, also it serves as a copyright 'helper'.
@ cindyvine - Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it!!
@ FaisalKhan2121 - Thanks!!
@ aslaught - You are very welcome!!
@ bobs optical - LOL, Well yes reading the directions do help!!But to answer your question, yes you can put up to 2 backlinks in your Hubs to your own blog.
Thanks for stopping by!!
This hub can be the first hub all the new hubbers have to read. There is nothing in the world that can beat honest and down to earth advice - which is exactly what's been laid out in this hub. Nicely done!
Princesswithapen
Awww, now you're making me blush!! Thank you so much for your kind words!!!
Fantastic Hub, the best advice a new Hubber could hope for. Everyone who joins Hubpages, should read this article before getting started. Great work.
Well thank you very much!
Thanks, and SHARED!
Wow! This is a lot to digest. I'll be refering to it frequently.
@ amberld - You are very welcome!!
@ AnnNoe - LOL Yes lots in here isn't there? Take your time, breathe in through the nose out through the mouth... Relax and have fun!!
Thanks for stopping by!
Thank you, practicing breathing now. :)
LOL - That's terrific!! Hehehehe
I think this is a great article, you are an awesome writer. I am new to this and to me it's not all about the money it's about forming your skills in writing in general. It's about doing what you love and learning to improve the skills you already have and when improved being able to make a profit and I agree it does take time.Thanks for the helpful information.
Thanks for the advice. I write for fun. If I get paid some day maybe I will reward myself with a new computer to write on! :)
That was all very good advice. I will make it back again to re-read as well as read your other linked hubs in there. You are right on about needing something to jot down those ideas that come while driving or laying awake in the middle of the night. They have a way of coming at the most inopportune times.
@ Aleta Love - Isn't it GREAT?? I love that HubPages gives us a place to not only improve our skills but make a little money as well!
@ Melissa Althen - LOL I hoping for one of those too!!
@ putnut - They do don't they?? I used to get the best ideas while driving! I had scraps of paper all over with ideas.
Thanks for stopping by!!
I like your idea about stopping and writing ideas down. I need to do that more often if I get and idea on a hub to write, be sure to write it down before I forget it! great ideas thanks.
I had been using scraps of paper, old receipts, corners of envelopes until my daughter bought me a 99 cent notebook. she said "Here Mom, this should help you find the ideas once you write them down!!" Because of course once I wrote the idea down - I lost it...
It took a long time to scroll down after all the comments LOL! Thank you for writing this it was very useful and inspirational. Voted up :-)
There are quite a few aren't there? I dare not delete any of them either!! If folks took the time to write a message I want to be sure it stays here!!
Thanks so much for stopping by! Thanks so much for the vote up as well!
I was wondering about that - now I know I should leave the comments there if ever I get so many! Thanks for explaining residual income, that is very encouraging.
Well there is no hard and fast rule about comments, it's more of a personal opinion that I have. Glad I help explain what the residual income was!
I am a newbie at hubpages. I find your article very interesting. And I think this will help me a lot. Will bookmark this so I can re-read it back.
I'm so glad you liked it!! Thanks for the bookmark!
Excellent advice! Voting this up and useful and will SHARE with my followers. Thanks!
Thank you very much for the lovely compliment! Thanks so much for the 'share' as well!!
The hub is useful and very informative. Voted up.
i am new to hubpages and this hub helped me a lot..i do understand how difficult writing a hub is. Thanks a lot for the information. I appreciate for that!!!
This hub is very useful and helpful, thanks for sharing it with us!!!
Truly helpful.thanks for guiding us.
Voted up and useful. I'm still a bit of a newbie and it really is about the love of writing when you're first getting started. As a person sees their revenue increase each month, even with very little writing, it prompts you to write more. Thanks for sharing your wisdom : )
Great Hub, very helpful and to the point. Thanks for posting. Voted up and useful.
Thanks for this. It's laid out simply and is quite encouraging to us newbies. No wonder it's still a "hot hub"!
It's nice to read this.Good hub! I'm just getting started. It would help me. Thanks..!
Good hub. I'm newer. This will be helping me. Thanks
@ vasantha T k - Thanks so much for stopping by!
@ santhosh8611 - Best of Luck to you! Take your time and it will come.
@ biljanakara - Thank you!
@ bmukherjii - My pleasure, glad I could help!
@ Jennifer Essary -I started as a way to let out my feelings and it just went from there. I've always liked to write so this was a good option for me.
@ Paule5619 - Thanks for the votes up!!
@ Juliek958 - Well it goes up and down on the Hot Hub list, It's always a nice surprise for me when it goes up, I get on here and see lots of comments!!
@ mayursoni346 - I'm so glad that you liked it! It's always nice to help someone out when you can!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Nice work and very informative. Keep it up
Thanks
Thanks for this hub, it is very informative. I am fairly new to hubpages so this is very helpful to me as I am I would like to make some kind of money through the site if I can.
@ bertgain - Thanks!! Will give it a whirl!
@ Josh Lakie - Welcome to HubPages!! Give it time and it will come.
Thanks for stopping by!
Wonderful, amazing and helpful article! Especially for a hubpages noob like me. :-) Thanks for putting this all together.
Thanks!! So glad I could help! Welcome to HubPages.
Great hub! I am fairly new and agree that to make money here you would have to work hard at it. It is true that anything worthwhile would take time and effort. The residual income would definitely be an extra benefit for your hard work. I have only made a small amount but I am not here for the money though that would be nice too. One day I am hoping to put more time into writing. Stumbling across HubPages I found it to be an interesting place to read other hubs as there is always something to learn and just interesting stories or articles to read. I think it's a great place for others to interact even if they are not making a lot of money. Your hub is very informative and offers much advice and instructions for the serious hubber.
Voted up and useful!
Thank you so much for writing this hub. Very informative and useful, especially to the newbies like me. :)
Very realistic tips!
@ wwolfs - It is a very nice place to write. A lot of the writers here give really good tips on how to excel, the forum section has some helpful tips as well! Make sure you take a peek there!!
@ kittyjj - It was my pleasure! Glad I could help.
@ iguidenetwork - Thanks!
I'm new and working at it. Thanks for the tips. As Hayes Carll says "It's hard out here"
Thanks for the encouragement. It's always good to read real world, common sense advice.Great hub!
I appreciate the information in your Hub. I am new to this and it is a lot of information to process in getting started. This helps. Thank you
Very helpful, every bit helps and I am enjoying all the great support.. Thanks so much for your hub, looking forward to reading more great info on this site!
Very long but quite impressing hub full of information which will really help me great in my hubbing experience. Thank you Sweet Susieg!
@ BuyaBiz - Yes it is hard out there!! I am very glad that their are companies such as HubPages that give us 'newbie' writers an opportunity to show our stuff!!
@ grinnin1 - That's about all I am is common sense in this world. I think we've gotten so 'techie savvy' that too many have forgotten what the real world is all about. If you like that type of reading check out my common sense Hubs!!
@ InaNYminit - Yes there is an awful lot of info to be found, I tried to make it friendly enough that there was no fear. I'm glad that you found this helpful!
@ Loladusk - Thanks! Yes, this is a Great site!! With lots of friendly people here!
@ samadaslam - LOL Yes, well the comments do make it very long!! There is also a lot of helpful information within these comments as well.
Thank you all for stopping by!!
This is great info, thanks for the Hub!
This is some excellent information and definately makes someone want to work hard at it, vs. making it one's hobby. I'd like to know more about the pay scale on something like this, but also, what else can I write about? Poetry? Short Stories? or is it simply other peoples intrests? I have so many ideas that roam through my head, sometimes it is hard to corral them all. Give me some insight if you would, I am new, started lastnight.. But I would like to know how one becomes part of the family and makes it in this world of writting...
@ jacobspage - You are very welcome!!
@ I N33D Answers - Pay scale - Well there is no pat answers on that, it depends on the whim of google and what they pay for the key words, I don't know anyone who has those answers either. You can write about anything you want, HubPages tends to frown on 'diary' type of Blogs, but other than that, short stories and Poetry is good. Look through some of the Hubs - Go to the top of the page click on Hubs, then go to Hot - Best etc.. It will give you a good idea of what seems to be written and read a lot.
Or you could do what I do and write whatever I want. If I make money then that's good, if I don't well at least I've made room in my head for more stuff!!
Thanks for stopping by!
I just joined hubpages after switching over from blogger.com. I appreciate the help and advice for those of us new here!
Great hub. Voted up and useful. Can't wait to dig in and see more of what you've written.
This article is perfect -- clear, concise, and overly useful. Thanks Sweetsusieq, I'll be following you.
I really enjoyed this hub. There's a lot of useful and practical information. Being fairly new I need all the help I can get.
Thank you for all the great info. Enjoyed reading this hub.
Thank you that was very useful and informative! I'm trying to learn as I go along and it's fun! But difficult fitting it in with my day job - so I am a part timer!
I'm trying to also use it to promote my site. Is there anything on hub pages to help people bring traffic to their own sites as well?
Thanks :)
Very very useful hub. This is really great. Everything you put together on this hub about hubpages and workplace is the same, it's just left for us hubbers to apply it to our individual work choice. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the insight. I am new in hubpages (3 days old) with a regular job in a profession dealing with numbers. I love to write and I am glad I found this website.I already finished my 1st hub, ready to publish. Hope I will be like you after a few years :-)
this is sooo useful. thank you!
@ vimier -Welcome to HubPages glad to have you here!!
@ Cameron Corniuk - Thank for the vote up and useful! You are more than welcome to dig in to my hubs. I have a few personal favorites, I won't tell you which ones they are but if you like humor, you'll get them right away...
@ Devon Avery - Perfect - What a nice compliment!! Thanks~
@ savanahl - Thanks! So glad you found it helpful!
@ cloverleaffarm - Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting!
@ eatforcheaper - Nothing wrong with being a part-timer! That is just fine, we all have to start somewhere! You can use links but only 2 per Hub to your site, that is the rules...
@ bizwin - So glad you found this helpful - I try to put it out there in terms that most can associate with!
@ Theresa - Welcome to HubPages! I'm sure that you are going to do just fine!!
@ odeisa - You are very welcome!!
Thank you all for stopping by!!

This is a lot of great information! You laid it out so well and easy to follow. I have not published a hub in a while but I am working on one now. You have encouraged me to write more. Thanks for sharing this information :)
Awesome pub. Lots of fantastic information. I must say I was surprised I've written 10 pubs in the past week and I didn't think I would do well but I'm earning a little bit of money. I guess that is somewhat of a good sign. Thanks for the terrific information. Ciao.
thanks a bunch for the encouragement. i am going to work on it.
Hey I mention to say awesome Hubs not Pubs so sorry.
Very informative and very helpful. Will work wonders for newbies like me.

Very interesting and exciting... You gave me inspiration to start writing again... I just found out about hub pages, before I had only some travel blogs, they were quite successful though... http://www.pargagreece.net
I'm new here , Thanks for the sharing.
Great tips! I'm just learning how this whole thing works.
Thank you! Your article was very helpful for a new Hubber who's just learning the ropes.
Nice hub.
With a few good hubs in your account, and once you are in a network of hubbers in your niche, you start bagging silver coins.
This is my two cent.
I am new to Hub Pages! This Hub has been a plethora of information. Thanks a lot for your insight. Voted up!
I am new Hubber from Indonesia. I have many ideas to write but I think I have bad English. But it is not a reason for me to give up...
I realy pleased n greatful to read about the page. usually i never input any comment but except this page. thank u author.

hi there.. thanks for your post. very informative. these days, many people use trackbacks and comments to spam us or hack our accounts with those when we approve them. how do you cope with it? thanks!
It was an awesome read! Really motivating for new hubbers like me.
thank u
aww ;( i almost thought i wouldn't see the end of these comments, thank God finally i'm on it now and just wanted to give u a "virtual hug & a pat on ur shoulder" for a great hub like this. thanks *Sweetsusieg* for sharing this especially for new hubbers like me.^^
Hub pages are a nice place to post and share ideas and views. Much better you perform here, better will be outcome. Thanks for sharing this post and encouraging the people who post here.
All of these comments and I don't think anyone bothered to ask how much money can someone make? I seriously doubt that anyone here is making more than a few pennies through Ädsense.
Really motivating for new hubbers
@ Dina Blaszczak - Welcome!! Best of luck to you in all your endeavors!
@ birdslover - This is correct!! It will take some time to make decent money.
@ Geraldnduru - Good deal!!
@ vividmemories - Well for me if I get spam I just delete it, if someone comments on here for the purpose of promoting their site, it's gone. We do have the control of our comment section. I really don't get many though.
@ srimathi1307 - Welcome to HubPages! Thanks for the nice compliment!
@ tupbebek - You are very welcome!
@ angela martinez67 - awwww - Thank you!! That was very sweet!
@ transcriptionven - Not a problem!!
@ Leftbanker - Actually the reason the money isn't mentioned is because each person's Hubs are different, so the income will be different as well. If you say a 'set' amount the some folks will hold you to it and no one can be sure what Goggle pays on adsense. Every day is a different amount for me, I could average it but that would be my average not someone else's. Keywords play a big part in google. Some folks do make extremely good money on here, some folks hardly make any, it all depends on what they write about.
@ Electronic Earmuf - Thanks!
Thank you all for stopping by and commenting!
thanks
is` helpful
Very good advice. I am planning to spend lots of time on hubpages. Not just for making money, I find really interesting hubs and discussions here. And if money is also possible, it'll be great.
So glad I stopped by. I have been writing for 5 months now and have wondered so often how long it takes to make money. That is not the main reason I am doing this however as if it were I would have stopped long ago. Writing has always been a passion of mine so I will continue. I have not been able to write as often this past month as I am moving...this is moving week..and my followers are not been increasing..not many new comments either...I attribute it to that. We shall see when I can get back into this.thank you for sharing this.
I find that for myself writing two hubs on Monday's work best for me. Then I spend the rest of the week making comments on other hubs. I found that is at least netting me a few cents here or there.
Nice explaination in a simple and realistic tone. This hub will really help me in understanding the way one can get along well with this program.
@ Barbaraty - You are welcome!
@ registerdomains - HubPages is a great place to hang out that is for sure!!
@ pstraubie48 - It does take a bit of time to get followers. Best of luck to you in your move!!
@ mikeydcarroll67 - That's nice, you have a good system! It helps to get into a groove when writing.
@ pinto2011 - I'm so glad you found it helpful!!
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
Your hub is very helpful. To have the information and advice right at my fingertips is the best help ever. Thank you so much. I was beginning to feel a bit lost and overwhelmed until I read your hub.
Thanks again
though I Do not have enough experiences to say that if I'll write here my stories would be an eye catching an have sense.It's a credit of joy for me when someone will agree with my observations and comments.
I just got done signing up and publishing my first article, and after reading this, I have a much clearer idea of what to do here. You have been so helpful, thank you very much!
@ landscapeartist - I certainly do understand that lost feeling - it was very difficult at first! With time it will get easier. Best of Luck to you!!
@ joeyrj - Practice makes perfect!!
@ Rick Wood - You are very welcome!! Glad to have you here!
Thanks for stopping by!
Talk about spending quality time on a hub ,thank you, this one is it. Not only did I gain a mountain of info from your well written hub ,that, I could totally understand, the comments had a wealth of information also. Thanks for making me understand we are in it for the long haul to find our way.
LOL - well thank you for that lovely compliment!! I'm so glad there is a comment section for hubs, they can add insightful information as you have discovered!!
I had never thought of writing Hubs to make money, I just started and I suspect mine are not upto scratch. But your hub made very interesting reading. Thanks
I'm new to Hubpages and I have a little problem. So I started writing hubs, connected my account with Adsense but here is the thing : does Google put the ads automatically or I have to put the source code like in other blogs? Because I've already have "Ads by Google" but
I'm wondering if they are connected to Adsense or not?
Ads By Google is Adsense. On Hubpages (and some alternatives), they put the ads in there for you already. If you are self-hosting on a server (like with HostGator or other companies), you have to embed the ads yourself. That's not hard to do: just log into your Adsense dashboard (adsense.google.com), click on my ads, and look for something like New Ad Unit (from there you can customize the code for your site's look, and there is no limit the amount of ad units as far as I can tell), and copy the code that gets generated as a result. That is the code you can use on your own self-hosted blogs or websites.
@ ThoughtMonkey - Well it just takes a little time and patience along with practice. Your's will be up to scratch in no time!
@ Joyfreak - I think Mikey (below you) gave a very good answer!!
@ mikeydcarroll67 - Awesome answer!! Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by!!
Thanks mikeydcarroll67 for the useful information!
As a newbie, I enjoyed your well-written and very helpful "cogitations" and direction. Thank you! (I'm learning to just keep swimming -- wait for me Dory...)
Oh I forgot to mention if you are using Wordpress to get the plugin "Use Google Libraries" in order for it to work (unless you are able to use the theme functions). On Drupal it handles the Adsense directly (just make sure when you create new content on Drupal to use Full HTML before publishing).
@ Pams Portal - Well thank you! You betcha - we're still all in 'school'.. LOL
@ mikeydcarroll67 - Thanks so much for the helpful information! Again!
No problem. I thought it would be a good duty to at least share something I've learned with the Adsense type thing.
Extremely useful, thankyou so much.
Thank you!! So glad you liked it!
Excellent hub .... learnt so many things .... massive good comments .... have to follow and visit often to your hubs .....Thanks Sweetsusieg ..... Keep the good work up ....
Where's Kontera it isn't on there any more....?
@ Java Programs - Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed and learned!! Feel free to come and read anytime!
@ Mooncatcher - I think Kontera isn't on anymore because there were too many complaints. Your Hubs had to age first, then if you didn't make the threshold in a months time, rather than roll over it started at zero the next month. So folks were complaining. (At least that is what I read on the forums)
Thanks for stopping by!!
