What kind of links can I put in my hubs?
I wonder if there are rules on adding links to my hubs. I have never tried adding links on any of my hubs yet but I would like to link my blog to my hubs, of course. I am thinking if I can do it without violating Hubpages rules. I would also like to know how many links I can post for each hub.
Here is the link to the Hubpages FAQ's which will provide you all the information you need: (I actually found some useful info there that I didn't know!)
http://hubpages.com/faq/
Here are the main points about links.
Hubpages does not allow:
-including more than 2 links to any one domain
-linking to the same domain in the body of the text AND in an RSS feed
-short "teasers" with links to "read more" at another site
-linking to sites/pages/Hubs that are unrelated to your Hub's topic
-including links to a page that contains largely the same content as your Hub
So, a link or two in your hubs that lead to your blog are perfectly fine!

I know it says under each...

I am working on one of my new websites - and I want to link back to my hubs here. How many times is this OK to do on a website page before it is overkill?

Now, not before, when you place a link, you have a choice to click rel=nofollow so that search engines ignore it. So in future hubs that you write or if you want to go back and edit, do not check this box for links to your own hubs. Also do not do this for links where you want to help the site. But...

I'm curious to hear if there are any hubbers, who saw a big drop in traffic after the most recent Google Panda and Penguin updates, have fixed their issues and are getting good traffic again yet?I think it would be good for us all to know what changes brought about your renewal of traffic, since...

I know it's been asked before. I've even asked it before. But is there a better and easier way to bring in links to a link capsule from another hub. It'd make linking series so much easier. I spent about 2 hours yesterday linking an old series that I have together. It included about 20 or so hubs...

Hi,I know normally there cannot be more than 2 links to any one site on one hub.So, my question is, does that also count for links back to hubpages?For example, if I have two links back to myself and say 2 links to other hubbers' hubs, then is that considered 4 links (over the 2 limit) back to the...
