Make Money With HubPages - Getting Started Real Quick

62

By Angel Of Love

INTRODUCTION

I was asked by one of my e-friend who frequently visits and comments on my blogs. She was asking me if someone could really make money writing short articles with HubPages. She wanted to know if I have personally earned money from it.

I told her that I was earning $30 a month by that time. And just like what I've always told others, don't take my word for it. You have to try it. Spend some time with it. There's nothing to lose but a few of your precious time.

The next question: how do we start writing at HubPages?

This article or hub is a quick guide, a dummy's guide, or an idiot's guide, whatever you may call it, on how to get started earning money with HubPages. HubPages has its own official help guides and its forums contain tons of guides besides the stickied guides that you can refer to later.

This guide is intended to give you a head start, a quick accelerated start, like going into the second gear and kicking the gas pedal as far down as it could go.

WHAT IS A HUB

A hub is an article about almost anything that you could think of and could write about. HubPages is not a Writer's Guild. Although being a professional writer is definitely a mammoth of an advantage, or knowing the art of writing is surely going to be an edge, HubPages is also for those who simply want to spend some of their time writing. It is a not a secret that there are "terrible" writers in HubPages who get the taste of success, if success means earning money with HubPages.

It is suggested that hubs contain at least 500 words and 800-1000 words are optimal. Do not write too short a hub as HubPages has a system of flagging hubs that are insufficient in content and automatically de-publishes them. There is nothing wrong with a very long hub but it is better to section it into several hubs and write a summary hub pointing to each separate hubs.

HOW IS A HUB CREATED

A hub is created by integrating text modules, photo or video modules, link modules, and other kinds modules. When you create a new hub, there will be a default text module and a default photo module. As a bare minimum hub, write about the topic you intend to publish into the text module. Use the photo module to upload a picture related to the topic.  The picture could either be residing in your computer or you may search the internet if you do not have one readily available. When you are finished with it, click the "Publish Now" button.

You have no idea how important HubPages is to some who could never otherwise make much money in the country that they live in.. Thank you for helping the 'newbies'.

I hope you also stop in to their Hubs from time to time to see how they are getting along...

Here's one guy in particular that I hope all of you help out: http://hubpages.com/hub/The-Weather-in-Pakistan-du

It's refreshing to see someone imparting their experience and advice for those not familiar with the potential of Hubpages.

PLEASE let us know when you're ready to do likewise with online dating.

It's for my friend.....I swear.....really.....
