Help with niche sites----For several months, I have not been as involved with hubpages, so I don't fully understand some of the newer features. One of these is the niche sites. The names of these sites are "catchy" but is there any way to determine the best site for a particular hub without going to each site and reading the articles there? The names of these sites (for me) can be somewhat confusing as to their content. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Good question. If your intention is to submit a hub to a new site, just pick the one you think is appropriate, Team will change it if it is not the right one.
Here is the full list of new sites>

I created a forum post about this before.
There is a list of niche sites NAMES on the blog, but it doesn't say what topics each site covers (and it's not obvious from the names).
There is another list of sites BY TOPIC on a forum post somewhere, but it doesn't mention the names.
We really need a list of niche sites by name, listing their topic areas. It doesn't exist!
That said - as Sue says, if you use the "Submit" tool and pick the wrong site to submit it to, they will suggest an alternative.
I made a a list of niche sites by URLs, listing their topic areas. People can bookmark the permalink of this post for future reference when submitting hubs.

Yes, it is rather long, sorry.
You can copy/paste the list into a document on your laptop, or, as I mentioned before, bookmark the permalink of this post for future reference.
Well, I needed the list for myself, so I thought I might aswell share it. Noticed the red bits?
It's a shame that "History" is no-where to be found.
I noticed the red bits, but I would be highlighting more than just Photography on FeltMagnet.
Feltmagnet makes sense as a name for a niche for Handicrafts, i.e. articles for creative people who hand-make things. I'm not at all sure that Visual Arts like Sculpture and Painting belong though, especially if they are talking about Van Gogh or Picasso!

Many of us here are working hard to upgrade our hubs so that they can be moved to the niche sites. I think it would be a good idea if those upgrades are viewed by the team the same way as new posts so that they can more quickly addressed. It's a shame to let much better upgraded...

I've noticed that I keep seeing HOTDs that fit the niche sites yet weren't chosen for the niche sites because they still have HubPages URLs. Why not save some time in the selection process for the niche sites and mine all the recent HOTDs and all of the Editor's Choice hubs for use on the niche...

I know very little about SEO. If you have hubs on niche sites, is it still important to have a knowledge of SEO? I get little love from Goggle.
by Sondra Rochelle 7 years ago
Just curious: How many hubs do you you currently have online right now and how many of them have already been moved to the niche sites?

Hi,Do more experienced Hubbers have any useful tips for getting your article moved to a niche site? I kept seeing advice that goes something like "make sure you write a high-quality article" but it just seems so vague to me. I have 9 articles now and the only one that was moved to a niche...

I already have a number of hubs moved to the Hubpages network sites, but haven't really seen a drastic traffic change in said hubs. So, is it worth the risk to submit one of my hubs that already receives a decent amount of daily views to a vertical site?I'd hate to see aforementioned hub drop in...
