I have just wrote a hub about writing techniques and while it has not managed to engage comments (which I am a little sad about) it does have more views in 24 hours than any of my other hubs have ever recieved. I know it has had a few shares on Facebook which have contributed to this but when I looked at the stats I saw a handful had come from a site called news360.
I popped over there and it is full of articles from hindreds of sites - but it doesn't tell me how I got there and I can't actually find my article on the site.
Does anybody know how this site works? It may be a useful place for getting my hubs a wider audience (and other hubbers too).
Looks like a website one wants to be liked by.

Now as long as Russia doesn't go starting World War III and there's an embargo...
That's interesting. My latest hub had quite a few from there and I've seen a smattering here and there on other hubs. I was wondering about it too
Thanks for the link paradigmsearch (just saw your comment, didn't get a notification for some reason).
Does look like a good site to get noticed by and hopefully a few more of my hubs can go that way.
My article on the future of retirement in America was posted there in a prominent place. Don't know how or by whom.
It might be Helium.com. They recently restructure and created 26 theme-based platforms that all end with "360" (as in a full 360 perspective). Apparently, they often scout out the other writing sites. If they do approach you, know that Helium does not allow their writers to delete articles. Once your submit to them, they keep your work >> forever << and continues to make a profit off of it even if you're no longer a member of their site.
They have not had my permission to print it and I am not a member, although I have recieved some referrals from them. It looks like they link back to source so I don't mind it appearing there, I just want to know how it appeared there as it may be a way of getting more views across all my hubs.
It's not Helium. They might approach writers to ask them to write for them, but they wouldn't just take existing articles and use them on the site. News 360 is an app.
I found one of my articles there and researched them. Wikipedia will also give you a good explanation of what News360 does. They seem legit!

Does anybody still use the Hub Hopper?I still try and use the hopper, but it just seems like it's constantly filled with rubbish; short articles, ones with no grammar or punctuation, or hubs not even written in English - I was hub hopping just a minute ago and found one hub written gljwgl lafiwjei...

I have been hub hopping lately and I am disgusted with the incoherent garbage that I am coming across - nothing but poorly translated articles of about 400 words, usually without even any formatting. I would say that more than half of the articles I randomly encounter are clearly nothing but spun...

Looks like another content sniper is at work, stealing our shizz from HubPages. This so called "music news" site has sniped at least four of my Hubs and it looks like there are many other pieces pinched from my fellow music Hubbers as well. If you've written any Hubs about music (any kind...

Hi,Do more experienced Hubbers have any useful tips for getting your article moved to a niche site? I kept seeing advice that goes something like "make sure you write a high-quality article" but it just seems so vague to me. I have 9 articles now and the only one that was moved to a niche...

Hi, I just thought I would sign up for Xomba for my back links as Redgage is a complete waste of time as I can never get a link to work! So I joined blogger and I don't like that! So tonight I thought I would have a go at Xomba, is there anybody that thinks it's worth it? thanks

Honestly, HP needs to step up and start filtering their input. I have been here for over 5 years and I have watched a lot of changes, but what I see as what must be the most damaging to HP (ergo we writers) with Google is the number of low quality Hubs being allowed in the gate. I hear a lot of...
