    I've been on Hubpages for 12 days now!  I'm really excited to have found a venue to get my writing out in the public eye.  However, before I go further, any constructive criticism is welcome.

    I've published 6 articles:

    Too many hubs to read so I took a brief look. You are doing very good. Keep it up.

    You're an excellent writer. Great job! The only real advice I have for you is to stop putting pictures next to your first text capsule. Save them for later on in the hub. If done properly, you should have a horizontal AdSense banner above your first text capsule and a 300x250 AdSense rectangle next to your first text capsule. You don't want to give up that prime ad space to a photo.

    Instead of hard-coded links on the bottom of your hubs, I would suggest you look into the "Grouping" feature that HP offers or start using RSS feeds. Those will automatically pick up new hubs as you go along.

    Yes, you're having a great start in terms of content and layout. I agree with the above recommendations. You should add RSS capsules and news capsules to keep the content fresh for search engines. Have a look at the help section and the Learning Center (see http://learningcenter.hubpages.com/) to learn how to do this.
