im not sure it has enough info, could someone take a look and tell me what you think. http://hubpages.com/t/17b82a
Hi Kateyes,
Welcome to HubPages! I think there is enough information, but your hub would be improved by working on the flow a little. Perhaps add some explanatory text in each section to separate them from one another. Using multiple text capsules and photos can also make a hub look much more attractive. Finally, you have some typos that need to be addressed, including in your title.
Hope this helps!
Cheryl
You do realize you don't have to use every suggestion that the link suggestion tool gives right? You should only be using any that you find relevant.
You could maybe cut down on the dot points and also add some other media such as a photo and video. Don't forget that there are more text capsules available!
I agree with WryLilt, you have far too many links out to other Hubs and sites. There are two reasons why you shouldn't.
One, when a reader sees a link in the text, they assume you're giving them a link to something relevant and will go visit. If they do this a few times and don't find anything useful, they're going to get really irritated. So only link when the link adds real value!
Two, you have to consider the risk that the reader may find the other Hub or site more useful than yours, and will switch to it completely. That's especially likely to be the case if you give them a link before they've had a chance to get interested in your Hub, i.e. in the first couple of paragraphs.
Remember you only make money if a reader clicks on your ads. If they leave your Hub by clicking on another site, they're not leaving by clicking on an ad.
I agree, always split your text up into several capsules, even if you don't have much else to add. As you learn more on HP, you'll find yourself going back and tweaking your Hubs, and that's much easier if you've separated your text.

Hello all, I would like to get some feedback on my new Hub. I can handle the truth lol. I would like to make it better as I have only written one other.My questions:Is there enough information?Is there to may amazon capsules?Anything else you can think of.One thing that I have noticed is that it...

My most recently snipped hub is about a specific product that is not readily available in stores. It used to have an amazon capsule, but that was deleted courtesy of HubPro a while back. Made no sense to me at the time because I've had multiple sales through amazon for that product, but I didn't...

If this is not the correct place to ask my questions, please let me know where to go on HubPages, or if I should send an email to the people running HubPages.A few months ago an expert hubber with lots of experience and success for a time offered free critiques of hubs in one of the forums. I asked...

I've had links to my own related hubs snipped on several occasions (mostly blatant lists at the end of a hub), but some links have been left in place after several snips. So is it acceptable to include a link to a hub which may be very relevant to the specific content in a section of a hub, if it...

Why is it that excessive links to Amazon products seem to be permitted when they are added to the body of hub rather than as a Module on the side? In my naivety, I did not realise that this was permitted. Will these links survive when hubs are selected and moved to the niche sites?

I understand the rationale for removing amazon capsules. I'm very careful not to include amazon capsules unless they are 100% relevant, and I can provide a personal opinion. I rarely do more than one per hub.HP is not only snipping amazon capsules on hubs for niche sites, but also just to have a...
