Hello there! I'm really starting to get into hubbing, and just wonder at one tiny little thing. As I write more and more hubs, would I be better off advertising them via a blog or a rotator in traffic exchanges? Or are TE's even a good way to go?
--Pagan Crafter
Thank you very much! Are there any blog sites in particular you would recommend I start with?
Personally I like Blogger, although I can't give a great answer to this because Yes I own a blog, no it doesn't have any content or anything on it. I'm only starting a blog, still need to get ideas for it to make sure I can keep it updated etc. What I do know is don't start a blog that will die out or you can't keep writing new content on for your fans. Other people like "Wordpress" but from what I learned you can't have Google ads on it and rules like that. Blogger you can have your ad sense ads on so that already makes it better in my book.
There are lots you can do, some people do nothing and rely on SEO alone. It depends how good you are . For now (personally I think) you shouldn't worry about a Blog or advertising, you will get a lot of views just making more good, original content! Once you have 10 or more Hubs thats a better number to worry about, its how I did it and I am doing ok I think.
Thank you very much! I'll have to brainstorm some ideas for more hubs! I can see one of them turning into a little bit of a series--not too sure yet how far I'll expand it, but we'll see!
Forget traffic exchanges - that traffic doesn't click on ads much.
Oh? Huh... I've actually had decent luck with traffic exchanges. What route would you recommend, then?
Try this traffic generating hubpage for size. Every bit help :p

You may ask yourself , what is sticky? It is anything that makes your Hub stick in the mind of your surfer. 1. If you spend a lot of time creating a great hub always some where on it encourage the person to bookmark your Hub Page. Tell them to push CTRL +D to bookmark your page. It can be that...

A couple of months ago I pointed my most successful blog to my own domain so instead of xxx.blogspot.com(etc) my blog is now myowndomain.com(etc). The blog looks over populated to me and I find that WP has more templates to work with. when I reduce the stuff on the front page it just looks weird....

I'm sorry to ask this question but I've got to ask. To make a long story short, I'm noticing that my personal blogs have experienced a near identical drop in traffic as my hubs here on HP. The drop started right around the end of September - the same time HP got witch slapped. I've looked at why...
