I'm not sure if any of you have heard of a FlashMob, but I think that they are awesome. Basically it's when a group of people go out and do something ridiculous together just for the fun of it and the reaction from other people who see it.
Now, I know that all of us Hubbers are scattered all across the world, but I got to thinking that we could possible do something similar to a FlashMob, but with Hubs on certain topics on HubPages....we'd call it a HubMob. Let me explain...
So, what I would see us doing is each week we pick a topic that we would all agree to write about in the Forums. It could be about anything, but it would just be one main topic that we would all be focused on. We would find the topic via keyword research and some other Google magic and then we would let everyone else on HubPages know what that particular topic is.
For instance, let's say that we picked a topic like 'wedding themes', which I know has some great potential for high-ranking on Google. What we would do then is publish a Hub specific for the particular week's HubMob topic and we would talk about and link to the Hub that we end up publishing here in the Forums. The titles could range all over the place, but the keywords would be focused. Some titles could potentially be:
- The 10 Most Popular Wedding Themes
- How to pick a theme for your wedding
- Things to think about when picking a wedding theme
- Popular American Wedding Themes
We would all post links to our Hubs in the Forum post that I would create and then we would basically begin to take over those keywords on Google, with hopefully several of the Hubs taking up the first page of results. I would keep an eye on them and give the results of the highest Google-ranked Hubs after a week in the newsletter and in the Forums and hopefully we would start to own several keywords on Google as a result, which would be awesome.
It would be a really fun way to write about different topics, too - I am definitely excited to do something like this...I've been wanting to post about it for a while. I also think that it will be a fun way to learn more about other Hubbers and to collaborate on something together as a HubPages community, which we haven't done much of.
If you'd be interested in something like this, post your thoughts here in this Forum and what we can do is start discussing possible topics on Monday and have one picked by Wednesday, so that it can go out in the newsletter. Then, we can write all of our Hubs and check out results the following week or so.
So...what do all of you think?

I think it is an awesome idea!
I like that on weeks that I don't have time or am super duper lazy, I can opt out.

I think its a great idea.
And what if we use other sites, blogs, etc, to link to the forum thread too?

I'm pretty sure that the best you can get is two pages in the results for any one keyword/s search.
cool, I'm in.
sounds like fun! I'm in.

Sweet, this is going to be awesome...if we get enough Hubbers in the HubMob, I'm sure that we can really make an impact on some keywords.
