    First of all, I hope that you all had an amazing weekend and it's great to see you all back here on HuPages....this is going to be an awesome week!

    Now, for all of you Hubbers out there who have been following my forum thread about HubMobs, this is the first official topic that we will all be HubMobbing for the rest of this week. I was given a great suggestion to add the HubMob topic as a Request, which seemed like a great idea and it it will be an easy way to see who all has written a Hub on the particular topic.

    So, this first week's topic is All About Various Popular Hair Styles: Their history and how to create them and here is how you can join our first, official HubMob:

    1. First, think of a good focus area to Hub on  that goes along with the overall HubMob topic of the week. Have some fun with it and write it about something that you are either interested in or know something about. For example, gamergirl could write a Hub titled 'Things to think about when dying your hair a bright color' or I could write about 'Manageable hair styles for really good looking tall men'. It can be about anything, but just make sure that the topic stays focused on various hair styles.

    2. Once you have your focus area decided(I think that I'm going to write about mullets), head on over to the Requests section and click the request that I added called All About Various Popular Hair Styles: Their history and how to create them.

    3. Change out the title to something that you want to write about and be sure that you change the Web Address to match your title once you change it. Also, feel free to keep the tags that I added or delete some of them and add your own.

    4. Write up your soon-to-be-amazingly-awesome Hub about your focus area of the hair styles topic and publish it once you're happy with what you've put together. Feel free to add plenty of images, links to other resources and videos to help better describe your hair style topic of choice. I think that I'm going to try to find a couple of Joe Dirt images/videos to add into mine since he rocked a super-mean mullet.

    5. Once you have published your Hub, add a link back to it inside of this Forum thread and tell us what you wrote about and why you chose that particular topic. Also, as your Hub begins to move up the ranks as far as Google and other search engines go, be sure to keep us updated with how it's performing.

    So, that's about it - I hope that you all are as excited as I am to get this first HubMob up and running...this is going to be great to see what we all come up with. Although this might not be the first topic that you would choose to write about(definitely not mine), I think that it will help us all become better Hubbers and it's going to be great to see what focuses we all choose and how we all put our Hubs together about them.

    If you have any questions, please let me know and although there's not real timeframe for the HubMobs, it would be great to have several published by Wednesday so that I can feature them in the newsletter.

    Have fun HubMobbing! smile

    Oh man, Jimmy - like I said in the the other Forum posts, the wedding theme topic was just an example. But, that is still a very traffic-friendly topic that you should still write about.

    Sorry about the confusion, I hope that you still play along with this topic, too.

    So, since you have no hair, you could write about the benefits of no hair over a hair style.  Easier to maintain, less money spent on products, famous bald men, whatever!!

    Thanks for explaining all of that Jenny and Jimmy, but I think that we should keep it simple for the first time around, considering that most of us aren't quite to the level of SEO understanding that you guys are. but, I think as we do this more and more, we're all going to become better at linking, SEO and finding the best keywords to write on.

    For the first week here is what we will stick to:

    1. On Monday I will post a topic that we be 'This week's HubMob topic: Wedding Themes', which will be the theme for everyone to write a new Hub about.

    my wife has also spent the entire day researching a wedding hub......jimmy

    Well, even though you have no hair(or short hair) there are always things that you can write about. Also, just because you don't have hair, doesn't mean that you can't write about mohawks, perms or even different hair braids. Part of the HubMob is to get you writing about topics that you might not normally write about - so I say go for it!

    I think that Jimmy should write a Hub on 'The history of Mohawks and how you can give yourself one'.  smile

    Anyone else agree?

    I mean, I am writing mine on mullets, and I'm definitely not styling one of those right now(unfortunately).

    I guess that you could have done 'Best hairstyles for a wedding' and tied 'em both together. smile

    Great Hub, Jimmy...as always.

    Are you going to poll good looking tall men for researching your hub?

    LOL!!

    You know, being sick as a dog right now I wondered if I'd have an idea pop up - but I think I know now what I'm going to do.

    Thanks Ryan! *high five*

    I went ahead and made this a 'sticky'(that's why it's pink and at the top of the forum topics) so that everyone can stay in the loop with what's going on with the HubMob. When we post the new one next week, I'll turn this back into a normal forum thread and make the new HubMob topic a sticky.

    I'm taking a little bit of a tip from the original topic of the HubMob, and incoporating Halloween into the mix.  Halloween Hairstyles!  LOL!  Should be fun!  Already started my research!
