Hubpage Length Before Publication

Before you publish your hubpage article you should acertain that you have abided by the help modules provided by the Hubpage Staff. A word count of 1500 word is sufficient to inform your relevant audience about your hubpage article. Also 1500 words is sufficient to get the Google bot working for you if you are interested in monetization.

The text content capsules on Hubpages are a great asset when it comes to lengthing your hubpage article. You are basically following a grammaticaly correct format when you use the three paragraph format. You should use a 200 word introduction that will suffice so that you can let your intended audience know what you are writing about. Then of course, you have the body of the hubpage and then the summary.

As a rule of thumb alway use at least two of these text content capsules because more relevant ideas may surface for you when you take a short sabbatical from what you are writing and go through the mechanics of saving the text capsule of which you are writing and then to open up another text content capsule.

When you begin you hubpages, remember to select another text content capsule in addition to the standard so that you are assured of having the appropriate number of words for your hubpage. If you are monetizing you hubpage, do not use more than five video and three photos which is what the hubpage staffers recommend. As the Google bot does not read images, you are basically getting reading appeal for your intended audience. People do not like to be left wondering if the article is complete so the information about always using the three paragraph format of writing will be a great help to assure that you are writing a complete article.

Lengthy Hubpages Gets Comments

If you were to navigate around the hubpage community, you would find that the longer the article, the greater the propensity of readers to leave comments. Hubpage writers appreciate hard work just as most people. If you sparingly present a hubpage, then you will get a sparingly audience. The saying is that garbage in garbage out means that whatever you put into the hubpage will give you rewards or regrets. The length of the hubpage is totally up to you but you should write about your hubpage article from all angles to give substance to what you are writing about.

You should always answer the questions that provide information about a topic. The questions are who, what, why, how, when and where. If you answer all of these questions as you write your hubpage, you will not have to perform a word count or a metric on what you are writing about.

tonymac04, thank you for your comment. The hubpage article Hubpage Length Before Publication serves its purpose and provided useful information as an answer to a Hubpage request.

I am glad you wrote about this topic. The person who told me about HubPages said to keep the words between 500 (to trigger Google followed link counts) and 700 (because people don't want long articles). hmmm . . . Maybe all of mine have been too short. Thanks.

James A Watkins, thank you for your comment. The length of your hubpage article is totally up to you. I find, however, that the longer the article the better and it keeps the reader engaged.
