yesterday it appears one of my long shot hubs targetted at snow blowers finally made a sale, in the middle of summer...
Who spends close to a grand on a snow shifting machine in the middle of summer?!
Have you ever made a sale which just made you stop and wonder how the hell that just happened?
That's just crazy Oli,-- like the old joke about being able to sell freezers to Eskimos.
But , if you stop to consider that it's midwinter in the southern hemisphere, like in Australia, and S.Africa-- maybe your sale originated in one of those places.
One of my first Amazon sales was nearly $200 on the most hideous piece of garden furniture I had ever seen. It must have been bought after clicking on either a hub about kitchen appliances or baby stuff as that was all I had published at the time. It truly was the most hideous thing. But it got me hooked on Amazon.
I wrote a hub about the government's bailout of the banks and got a check for $158 billion dollars

Hi hubbers, I made my very first Amazon sale two days ago and you can guess how I feel right now. I know there are hubbers who make several sales a day, but this is a very big milestone to me worth sharing. This is a big boost on earnings and now I have all the reasons to get back hubbing. Thank...

What's best: Long Hubs or sectioned hubs?Do you think it's best to divide a long hub into 3 or 4 parts that can be published at intervals, or is it better to just cram it all into one BIG hub?
