Hello fellow hubbers,
I have seen numerous comments on how to increase traffic to a blog. But I haven't concrete ones on generating massive traffic to my hubs using white hat methods. Anyone with an idea?
Try to share your url at fb, twit, pinterest etc, works well
Are you already doing social media stuff? I find that I get an extra 2000 hits or so per week on my articles via simply telling people about them the right way.
I haven't been doing it so often. That's one area I will definitely work on. Thanks revolutionbjj
Glad to help. Try to be as systematic as you can with it.
I will give you practical advice never having been to Kenya I can only call upon my experience thus far. I think you have to ask yourself why are you writing here. Is it just to make money? If you want to earn money use what you have written as a visual resume and get some freelance writing jobs which will put cash in your pockets.
On hubpages it takes years to make significant earnings and the hours you commit will be substantial. Look at this article bobbysd.hubpages.com/ how I got visits and earned on hubpages.
He earned $1500 usd in 17 months it took a lot of time and effort. Plus he was not writing for entertainment or pleasure but creating articles supporting a niche. If this is your goal follow his methods but the amount of money per hour of effort is very low.

As for social media unless you have a following then you will spend a substantial amount of time building an audience and probably will need to spend money to boost your pages. This is an going commitment of time .
If you are like me and have a job and family you can't write 25 articles a month and also have time to be on facebook, Twitter, etc
Everyone in the world is a writer these days so to break through the noise takes years of effort so you won't be seeing massive traffic anytime soon.
Remember hubpages takes 40% of your earnings. Is this where you want to be?
Good luck
Thanks Nick DeGeorge,
Good to hear you have been to Kenya. Thanks for your timely and selfless response. Like you, I do write on the side and my goal is to build enough traffic to start earning a significant income in two years time. I am thus looking to build the traffic on gradual basis.
Yes than follow that article the writer is very precise on how to proceed it will take about two years. Good Luck
Thanks Nick. I will definitely check on the article. And you are most welcome to enjoy our beaches and wild beast migration that make Kenya a tourist attraction
You first need to raise your score before you can gain some command online.

I am writing articles for this website since past 3 months. At present, I have 38 featured and published hubs. I have joined for Amazon and google Adsense program. Past two months I earned like very less amount, less than 1/2 dollar. If I continue writing and publishing at the rate of one article...

This has got to be some sort of joke. This site is not an easy place to make a fast buck. I knew that when I started. I then did the apprenticeship. It hasn't done me one iota of good. I have written well over 70 hubs, some of which were HOTD. My earnings in the last week are [redacted] ...

Does anyone really make money on HubPages?I have worked and worked, all original content, all by myself, and I have not earned a dime. I get visitors. The second issue...I can't connect my hubpages to my paypal account.
