What is the HubPages policy on reprinting Hubs in other venues (with attribution of course)?
I don't think they allow it, even if you wrote it yourself. Seems kind of unfair, but that appears to be their rules. I write for a financial website, and they will not let me turn my articles from that site into Hubs.
Their loss, since I would be publishing a lot more Hubs for Hubpages and they'd be generating a lot more ad revenues and visitors.
They say they don't like it and I believe if they catch you, they might ask you to take it down...I'm not positive on this, but I believe they want your hubs to be unique to hubpages.com and not re-printed somewhere else.
it is against the rules to use your own content from elsewhere here on HP. I know it seems unfair, but Google frown on duplicate content so HP is trying to stay in Google's good graces both for HP and us the writers sake.
You have to understand that so long as the content is in two places at once one will be labeled a carbon copy.
No, no, no. Duplicate content is not allowed. There have been several forum posts now by hubbers whose hubs have been unpublished because the content exists elsewhere on the internet. Don't do it. You don't want to anyway - it messes with your Google rankings.
If you want to publish your hub content anywhere else, you must first remove it from HubPages. You do own your own content but HubPages has exclusive rights to show it until you remove it. Once removed you may do anything you like with it.
I get that online sources are (and ought to be) off limits....what about print???

I've seen some hubs with affiliate links on them... such as from Commission Junction. Is there a HubPages policy on using these types of links?

I have read numerous hubs while hopping that I thought would be great if the writer did some editing or word smithing. I thought it would be nice to let people know that thier piece could be so much better with out trying to hurt anyones feelings. I have commented on a couple of pages...

As fast as I'm trying to fix up hubs that are unfeatured, the problem isn't that there is something wrong with them, but that they are being unfeatured as a result of lack of traffic. Isn't this short sighted? Some topics just don't get that much traffic. It's not because they are badly written,Is...

I can't seem to find an answer for this in the learning center. I have a large set of articles I've been writing for a while + some time on my hands to dedicate to Hubpages for the next couple of months. Would publishing 10 hubs a day benefit or disadvantage me, both in terms of hub score /...

Hi all,I've been here a year now and had 60 hubs featured in a row since I started. Just now I received notifications that the last two hubs I submitted were not being featured. The first of the hubs I was given the boilerplate that it may be because it contained spammy elements. The hub was about...

I just wrote a hub on making money with HubPages but wanted to make sure it's ok before publishing. I know you are not supposed to mention what you are earning on HP, but is it ok to use titles like 'How To Earn $1000 per month on Hubpages', or 'How To Make $1 Million On Hubpages'? I don't...
