Hi! I'm new and would like any insight you can give about my hub, how to make money, and the do's and don'ts of "getting out there". I'm not keen on the advertising aspect - but I get it. Personally I hate going to sites that overflood with advertising so for my initial hub I just chose the Amazon (I think it was) ad.. mainly because I thought the book that came up was quite interesting What is your take on which advertsiing schemes to use in an effort to earn cash?
Thanks all!
Oh.. here is the link ( I read that posting the link here is ok to do- my apologies if not)

Hiya, welcome to Hubpages! The affiliate ad programs are really good, even if you don't want to write just to earn money, you may as well join google ads and the new one. After a few months you will start to earn a little bit and it does come in handy. If you don't want ads on your hub, then you can go into it in your accounts and take them off, but I think it looks better with the ads because there aren't that many. as for putting your link here, its not really allowed, but hey you have just joined! good luck with your hubs.
I think some writing doesn't lend itself to advertising and isn't going to make much money anyway. But there is an overlap between what will make money and what will still be fun to do.
As a poet and short story writer for hubpages for almost two years now I have yet to make 25.00 and have never sold from an amazon add and those who read my work are readers and writers so again it does depend on what you write. Hubpages love thoughtless dribble, copied and rewritten works on nothing, cleveage shots and repeats of daily headlines. To me thats not writing.
Goodluck!
Here if I can help in anyway

I have a hard time reaching above 75 points on my QAP assessment. I have no idea what else to do. I made sure my text is correct, stylized and broken into digestible chunks, bold only on important phrases, headings, sub-headings and other formatting techniques used. Since I had a lot of images, I...

Have you ever used a Poll capsule in one of your hubs?My first time was today, in four new hubs which make "A Hitchhiking Saga." Fun way to invite participation from readers!Where have you put the code outside Hubpages to bring traffic to your hub?

I am talking about best and worst scenarios. I have been through many posts on the forum and other places. From what I understand, you can hope to make (in the best case) about $1 per month per hub. So is that true for many of you? For instance, if I go berserk and post 1000 hubs (don't even ask me...
