Why switch to hubpages (hubpages vs triond helium or blogger)

It's better to focus on something you know have probability for growth and so bringing more visitors. For example last month I made 38.5$. This month I made 60$ (59$ to be exact from several accounts not just the one you're reading, though not all from hubpages but many from there - in fact one of the reason is I moved some niche posts elsewhere but mostly the increase in earnings is due to hubpages growth). That's 50% growth of my earnings and to tell the truth I didn't even make effort to make new posts in December: truly great passive income this month at least. You can follow my earnings day by day since January.

I don't use hubpages for niche where I know I really dominate so that even with low traffic I get money. I confess that I would do much more if my hubs were not of low quality unlike some great hubpagers here. When I will have time I may upgrade the content to be better but not before months as I have other more lucrative projects but the learning process at blogging at hubpages will also serve for these later projects.

If I had began my experience on blogger for example, I'm pretty sure I would have given up after a few weeks because there's little chance you would get enough traffic on your own. Same for triond I suppose: a few dollars is really not worth, a few dozen dollars with potential growth better motivates me.

As I read their FAQ they say 50% of "NET" revenue which means not 50% of total adsense revenue (they deduct charges you don't control).

In hubpages you put your own adsense ID so it's totally transparent. Of course hubpages could cheat by not putting your adsense ID 60% of the time but that you could control too since you can lookup the page source code and read the adsense code.

So I would switch to hubpages if I were you.

Last but not least the hubpages platform is much more sophisticated than triond.

I don't use Helium personally but this is the testimony of Marisa:

"I'm on Helium, which uses an undisclosed method of calculating income but it is more to do with views than clicks. There, it's taken me a year to make $50 with 170 articles. Here, I've already earned $14 in three months with a fraction of that number (and of course, they haven't all been there for three months).

There's also the potential for additional earnings through eBay and Amazon where you have direct control over what they advertise - though the sales are infrequent, they're worth it when they happen.

Personally, I love HubPages because I enjoy the extra dimension of being able to determine the layout, enhance the article with photos etc. "

Blogger is the best well known blogging platform from Google. Contrary to Hubpagers, you should rather be experienced to create and optimize your content with Blogger.

So when would it be advantageous to switch to Blogger ? When you are no more a newbie and you want to be able to customize your own template. With Hubpages you cannot put an html or javascript snippet which is very annoying if you want to do affiliates marketing for example.

Besides from that, with Blogger you get 100% of adsense revenue instead of 60%. Nevertheless without seo experience you will probably get null traffic so it's better to stay on hubpages if you're a total newbie. If you're not any more or if you are sure to dominate a niche, then why not ? That's what I have done with one of my favorite topic.
