    What is the point of writing hubs? I would really like some input on this!!! TY, in advance.

    I linked to my blog and I sell a e-book on my blog and BOOM it is prohibited because of that. Why would I write hubs? If I give people good content why does it matter what I sell on my blog that I link too as long as it is legal? This is a real question. What do some of you do to get around this? OR, is it just better to delete all my hubs and move them to my blog so I have more content on it. I would love several point of views on this.

    Writing in hubpages is the best way you can earn online without even selling a thing or having an Adsense account. But if you really love being an affiliate marketer more than being a writer in hubpages, you can go your way. However, avoid trying to sell something in your hubs. Your mind set should be to plainly provide useful and helpful content. Thereafter, you are free to link to your blogs or anywhere else.

    There are several reasons people write on hubpages. Some want to make money. Some want to get their stuff read (mostly fiction and poetry writers), others are looking for a convenient place to create an online written portfolio.

    Hubs are designed to be stand alone articles with relevant pictures, links, and polls. If you link is irrelevant, such as a link to your personal blog, then it will likely be flagged. Hubpages also has specific rules against linking to e-books.

    The last section in this Learning Center article explains the hubpages standards regarding links. http://hubpages.com/learningcenter/links-capsule

    Being as none of your hubs are published and there is no link on your profile to your blog I can give you no further input.
