Optimizing your Articles by Using Keywords

Before creating any article, use a keyword tool to generate suitable keywords.

You'll be surprised at the number of additional keyword phrases that come up. When you incorporate keywords into your articles, these will help to drive traffic, helping with readership and earnings!

It can be difficult finding a keyword tool but once you have this at your disposal, you will be ready to create keyword enriched articles that are found by the search engines.

  • Aim for primary and secondary keywords
  • Include keywords in your title and subheadings

  • Cascade keywords throughout your article

Here's a HubPages Checklist so you'll earn the most from HubPages.

Step 1

Join Google (so you earn from AdSense Ads running on your Hubs).

 

Step 2

After you have created a number of Hubs

Join Amazon

Join E-bay

When you are in edit mode, over on the right, under Add More Stuff, you'll see Revenue Capsules. You simply click on either E-bay, Amazon or both. If you want more than one capsule, click it the desired number of times. You will find the capsule box sitting at the bottom of your HubPage. Now you can tweak it by searching for products that would go with the subject of your Hub.

Step 3

Bookmark your HubPages articles (you will need to sign up for these services first). HubPages provides some of these services under Share It, the green button at the bottom left of each HubPage.

Some Common Sites

Furl

Mixx

Magnolia

Backflip It!

Delicious

Reddit

StumbleUpon

Facebook

My Space

Digg

Google

Bookmarking Buttons

For convenience, check out the sites that offer bookmarking buttons. Sign in to the site and drag these up to your browser bar; next time you have a published article page open, just click on the bookmarking icon up in the bar. (Furl, Mixx, Magnolia, Backflip It!, Delicious, and Reddit all offer bookmarking buttons.)

Step 4

Link to others' HubPages with your tracker.

Step 5

Refer others

Encourage others to become part of the HubPages community and earn lifetime royalties on pages they create. You earn on those who sign up under you.

 

Step 6

Include HubPages badges and banners embedded with your tracking token at your blogs, which will also lead to more sign-ups.

By implementing steps 5 and 6 I've had 70 sign-ups!

Step 7

Link to your HubPages at your blogs and in other Hubpages.

Step 8

Groups

Once you've created a number of HubPages, catagorize them into groups. This is done when you are composing a HubPage. At the top you will see: Settings, Summary Text, Group. Select Group. You can create a new group or add your page to one you previously created. It's good to group your Hubs into catagories because readers will be directed to more of your Hubs with similar topics. You'll now notice at the bottom of your HubPage the name of one or more of your articles with an arrow, which conveniently directs readers to your other Hubs.

Step 8

Use your HubPage Feeds in applicable HubPages; incorporate your HubPage Feeds at your blogs. To grab the Feed: click on the orange Feed button and right click, peruse the menu until you see 'properties.' Click on that and copy/paste the Feed URL where desired. Most programs offer a box or a form where you can paste your Feed URL.

Step 9

Take time to read other Hubs and comment. Get to know your way around the HubPages community--a group of interesting and talented individuals.

Step 10

Get to know other popular Hubbers and check out their pages to see what they are doing. Learn from those who have been successful.

Using this checklist will help you to earn more from your HubPages.

I am ready now to begin putting some of these ideas to work - I really enjoy writing, and I am looking for some monetary reward eventually, so I guess I might as well get familiar with these techniques you mentioned.

PLEASE! - Keep on telling new hubbers like me how to get the most from our hubs!

Thanks!

you can givles yourself a big applaude for explaining what are hubpages. I have sent so much time building a website but still could not get it to make some money. To be frank it is the first time that came across the wordhubpages and I have sent some good articles to ezines for free just to increase traffic.

Hi,

Juliet,

You are on the right track. Article directories can increase traffic. You might also want to consider revenue share opps. where you are paid on advertising as well as being able to include links to your site.

Athlyn, I'm in love, I was just wondering how to group my hubs together and so I went to google and put in how to group hubpages and who do I find at number 3

in the search results? Your Hub, which is a wealth of knowledge (truly no hype) that I will bookmark and carefully go through as I'm still learning the ropes here on Hubpages.

I'm no spring chicken when it comes to Internet marketing; but this will only add to what I already know-Thanks

Submitting our hubpages to bookmark need time. Some blogger said that bookmark is useless

Hi Forlan,

Bookmarking can bring in a lot of traffic if done properly. Use good tags/keywords and make sure to bookmark other good quality pages, so you aren't viewed as a spammer. For every article of mine that I bookmark, I try to bookmark 3 others.
