Who doesn't need extra cash these days with the economy and hard times to come making some extra money on your spare time might become necessary. If you like to write or like to blog you can make some good steady income writing Hubs. Hubpages is fun and extremely easy that even a fifth grader can do this, but I believe you have to be a bit older than that to sign-up. Hubpages does not pay you directly but they have 4 income streams that are build right in there software. The good thing is that google likes Hubpages and ranks their pages pretty high on searches.

The four income streams that Hubpages has build into their software are from Google AdSense, eBay, Amazon and Kontera. I will tell you somethings about these partners of Hubpages and let you know how you can make some money from each of them. Plus you can promote other affiliate programs by writing reviews about their products. You can write about anything you want as long as not offensive. This is a site that we want any body that visits to get to learn about something not how to hate or nothing adult rated.

 

AdSense is ads will generate a good steady income from you creating hubs. This is my best money maker from writing hubs and I make money each and every day. The great thing about AdSense on Hubpages is that the SEO part is already build in the hub you create. All you have to do is sign-up and put your AdSense code on your Hubpages profile and your done. How you make money is simple people visit your site and if any one clicks on a google AdSense ad you make money. The more valuable the keyword content from your site the higher the return. The key to Google AdSense is never click on you own ads, its dishonest and will get you band from the program and that's the end of one good steady stream of income. My income is steadily rising from google AdSense and the more I publish the more make. It's really that simple the more work you do or more articles you write the more you going to make.

eBay is my favorite Hub Module because it can get a $25 dollar bonus when somebody buys something from eBay for the first time. Also you make some money every time someone who click on one of your eBay ads and wins an auction. The best Hubs for this I find are hubs direct to product reviews, on things commonly purchased on eBay like, purses, games, movies, computers or any hot item on eBay. The income from eBay is usually pretty steady but you will get spikes of sales during the holidays and other gift giving occasions. I use Hubpages and Squidoo for most of my eBay ads.

To ad an eBay Module on Hubpages is real easy, just click on the eBay module or content capsule and modify the keyword phrase and put a catch title. You can add several eBay modules but make sure you only ad few or your hub might get flagged. I usually add 2 or 3 and have had no issues with my hubs.

The Amazon module is just like the eBay Module and is also a good money maker for the right type of Hubs. When ever you are writing about something all you have to do is put your keywords for related products, books, movies, gadgets, games and you will make a nice little income on each hub you write. I have been told that this brings in some very steady income for some hub writers my experience has been better with eBay but that is most likely because I have written a lot of my hubs with eBay in mind. The great thing about this module is that is easy to create and make your hub article look wonderful.

This is the newest of Hub-pages income streams. You get links added to key words and make some money every-time someone clicks on a ad. The great thing here is that you do not have to worry about where the link goes. Kontera software looks for keywords on you article or hub and then highlights them for the visitor to click on if they are interested. Its not as profitable as Google AdSense or eBay for me but its easy money and it does ad up at the end of the month. The more hubs and visits the more you will make. To see how the ad works just move your mouse over the link and a small box will pop up for you to see what the links is about. If someone clicks on the box you will make a some money. It might not be a lot but it does ad up and you have nothing to worry about but collecting the money. I highly recommend using this income stream on all you hubs, you have nothing to lose and money to gain.

You can go-to sites like click-bank or Commission Junction and write reviews about sites and make some serious cash. Although I have not tried this method yet I will soon. I notice lots of Hubbers do this so I know that you will make some extra cash writing reviews about products for sale on affiliate websites. The one I recommend the most is click bank. I have made some good size commissions on sales from some of these merchants. Some of the are very generous and give you from 40 to 75 percent commissions. The thing you got to remember here is you only can put their link twice on your site with out breaking Hub-pages terms and conditions. Also if you have your own websites you can make Hub-pages for them also and get some good back-links for you website. If you have not joined hub-pages I strongly recommend you give it a try, you have nothing to lose and lots of money to gain. Plus you will have some fun.
