Hub Pages? What is it for?

Are you disappointed with hub pages? Well, that's OK. I have recently been reading some random hubs and their comments, and come to find out that people are disappointed with Hub pages terms, quantity of income, and more. I personally found it irritating to find out that you had to have a hub page account for six months before being able to make money. My first series of hubs researched on the Stonehenge. I literally put my heart into it but it didn't draw people's attention. After all that research, I later found out that my conclusion was right on the dot with the conclusion of NOVA. I didn't care how little attention I got for those hubs, I was pleased with myself, and that is all that matters. Then I started posting another series of hubs, my poems. Bam! That got attention. I discovered so much about writing with my experience here on hub pages. Here are some of the most important things I've learned on hub pages about writing:

Writing is not a job, it is a passion.

Writing has to catch your reader's attention.

If you don't like what you're writing, nobody will.

Writing is a way to express yourself.

Never quit if you love it.

Yes, you do have to love what you are writing as well as your readers. It's a tough task, it can be done, but it doesn't always happen that way. These are things I have learned in three months of being on hub pages. I would like to know how you feel on this subject or what you have learned about writing, in your time.
