Everyone will say that money is not the most important thing in the world! There are other things which are more important to you apart from money. The first on the list is relationship or bonding between you and your family members, friends and colleagues. This is something that money can not buy; I agree to this statement but only to a certain level of extend. In the real world, the more money you have the more people will want to become your friends. This is the truth, money and friends do have correlation. These people are not your true friends; they are parasites waiting to pound on your money.

Secondly, some people say that self-fulfillment is more important than money. This is where your ambition come into the picture or what you intend to achieved in their life. So people want to be successful in their life in term of career and position. Money will surely come to you after your success. So this people would not have to worry about money most of the time. There are people who just want to help people by participating in community works. However, I am not one of them. I am always short of money and always looking for ways to increase my income.

In other word, different people have their own perception on the importance of money. But it is a matter of fact that money is very important to everyone. You just can not live without money. I (and most of us) am a slave for banks and financial companies. Every month, I pay to them house loan, car loan and credit cards. I am always looking for way to make extra money and writing hubs on HubPages is one of the many ways. A lot of people mourned that they make no money with HubPages. Now, the question is do they implement the correct strategy or method? It will not take you any where closer to your objective by doing the wrong things.

Three Simple Steps of Making Money from HubPages

Here is how you can start to make money with Hubpages.

1) Keyword Research
After selecting the topic that you want to produce a hub on, you need to conduct research on the topics and determined the keyword that you must use in your hub. The main objective of this exercise is to determine the keyword that will pull traffics to you hub. No matter how good or informative you hub, it will not generate any income without traffics or people visiting the hub. First you have to ensure that the keyword you use in your hub is the keyword that has people searching. You can use Google Keyword Tool to have an idea of the numbers of searches for your keyword. Then, determine the competitiveness of the keyword. You have to select the keyword with the best potential. In brief, the keyword should have decent searches and fewer competitions.

Choosing the right keywords is the most critical part to make money with HubPages. The above is just a simple explanation for the keywords selection process and criteria. I strongly recommend that you subscribe to The Keyword Academy Course to learn more about selecting the right keywords process.

2) Writing Hubs
After you are done with your keyword research, you have to incorporate the keyword in you hub. Remember to include cousin keywords. Cousin keywords are keywords related to the main keyword that you have selected earlier. Targeting multiple keywords on the hub is going to give you additional traffics.

2.1) Hub Title
Your main keyword must be place in the title. By default the words you put in the title will become your hub URL. If the URL has been taken, make minimum alteration to the title but your main keyword should stay in the title. Let say your keyword phrase is “Make Money With HubPages”. Unfortunately it was taken by some one else earlier, so the next option is that you can to add words in front or behind the keywords phrase. For example, “No Money? Make Money With HubPages”, which include the main keyword phrase.

2.2) Choose Relevant Category
Now, you have to choose the most relevant category for your topic. HubPage provide a drop down menu for you to choose the category that is best to describe your hub. Further drop-down menu will appear for you to choose the subcategory of the topic. Thus, this provides a more specific classification for your write-up. Choosing the most relevant category will ensure the right people finding your topic.

2.3) Pick Suitable Layout

Next you have to pick the most suitable layout for your hub. If you intend to monetize your hub through adsense, I recommended that you choose the text on top layout, as show in the picture below. By default, Hubpages place adsense ads at the top of the page. It is advisable that you use one capsule for your text, thus this will ensure that the adsense ads will appear on the top right of your hub. By positioning your ads at that location will increase the chances for visitor to click at the ads. If you decided to use more than one text capsule, make sure that your first capsule have enough texts so that the adsense ads can fit in.

2.4) Write your hub
I strongly recommended that your write using Microsoft Word or other word processing software before transferring the texts into your hub. With the software you are able to check the spelling and phrase of your write-up. Remember to incorporate the keyword into the write-up as naturally as possible. Use the keyword multiple times in your write-up. Do not over use the keyword if your hub is short. Use the keyword two to three times for a hub that contains 600 to 800 words. A good and effective hub is recommended to be at least 800 words long.

2.5) Build Link To Other Sites
Try to associate your hub with other similar hub which has the same or similar topic. Provide a link to the site so that your visitor can visit them. Other than HubPages, remember not to point two links to the same URL. Your hub will be flagged and your HubScore will be diminished. Take note that your HubScore should be 75 and above so that your link will be a “follow” link. Links for HubScore of 75 and below are “no followed”. The “no followed” link will be ignored by Google. To ensure your score is 75 and above, your hub should contain quality content and at least 800 words in length. Try to include video and photos as well. Provide relevant links to related sites is also an important aspect of a quality hub.

2.6) Insert Tags

Use your keyword and cousin keywords to create tags. You should put all the keywords from the keyword research process as tags. This will enable people to find your hub through the tags. HubPages also provides “Suggested tags” that are based on the content of your hub. Choose only the relevant tags suggested by HubPages as not all tags suggested are relevant to your write-up.

To summarized the above:
i) Write your title
ii) Choose the relevant categories
iii) Pick a suitable layout
iv) Write your hub
v) Build link to other sites
vi) Insert tags

HubPages contain many different tools and components. HubTool is where you arrange, edit and create your hub. Knowing the detail of how each of the particular components works will enhance the speed of producing your hub.


3) Generate Traffic
Getting traffic to your sites will ensure that your hub is able to produce income for you. Basically, there are 3 possible way to get traffic.

3.1) Search Traffic
What we are doing earlier the keyword research, write hub title with keyword and incorporating keywords in write-up are basically the method to obtain traffic from search engine, we called it Search Engine Optimization (SEO). This is the best type of traffic for generating revenue. If your want to learn more about traffic generation from SEO visit Make Money Online For Beginners.

3.2) HubPage Traffic
Find fans and become a fan of other hubbers. Interaction between hubbers is important and is one of the ways to generate traffic to your hub. Participate in forum by getting involved with conversation can help to attract new potential readers.

3.3) Social Bookmarking and Social Network Traffic

Some of the Social Bookmarking sites include Digg, StumbleUponand Del.icio.us. These sites allow you to submit to their service that provides the opportunity to attract new visitors to your hub. Facebook, MySpace and Twitter are some of the Social Networking sites that allowed sharing of your hub with friends. If they find your hub interesting enough they will share it with their friends and this will pass on and on. Thus, the multiplying factor here has no limitation.
