I know it's a big deal to appear on the first page of a google search, but I have the first FOUR pages of a search I did. I was looking for an old thread, so I entered beth37 and hubpages... There's no one around for miles... just me and my bad self. Don't even try to compete. I own it!
oy... not gonna be making any friends with that title am I? Im just gonna ostrich that one out. lol
Could you drive up to Carlstadt NJ for me Beth and find out why customs there are holding up my (self given) birthday present? Just say its the water jet thing and they will know what you mean.
Nah forget it. That Obama guy got back back to me (finally). He sent some kind of swot team to expedite the matter and those union guys demanding sit down time for lunch are now feeding the fishes instead of their own greedy guts.
Oh good, it was gonna take about 3 days up and days back. ive got thanksgiving... do you know what that is?
Native Americans... and a few survived the ugliness... Im friends with quite a few... they sometimes wear the full garb, very impressive ppl. they have forgiven us, their mom went thru much worse... Im not sure she's forgiven the white man yet. She's really interesting though.
Ah, the intricacies of other people's history...
And so well explained.
What I want to know is why a few episodes of Futurama turns me into a completely uncaring person and is there a cure? I mean besides reading Great Literature for several blood vessel busting hours.
Ah... that's what happened to you... see, I watch the Simpsons. It makes me mean, but not cruel. You on the other hand chose the worse of the two and it's probably too late for you.
Simpsons is for wussies.
Do you know that all you have to do is lose an eye and you could be the cyclops woman? The fit one. From the sewer. The one whose name I forgot.
Is that how you picture me? I do have a monocle so I spose I am up to the task.
I remembered the name! Leila. I ain't Grandpa yet.
And yes I do see you as Leila. Alternately being kind to losers, drop kicking villains and saving the universe from Omicron Persei 8.
Im sending you a heart too Will. I sent one to writinglover earlier, but I love you both so here you go.
<3
It looks more like a mathematical equation, but I assure you, it's my heart.
You ownes the SERPs's.
Sorry, been listening to Tom Waits tonight.
Hmmm... explain I don't understand the references or just smile and nod?
Tom has the mother of all lisps. Makes the Golem sound clipped.
If he sang it it would be ownesssss thesssseess serpesssseesss.
*sob* I cannot make such a claim - "wilderness" simply does not carry the raw power of "beth37". I'm sooo hurt.
On the other hand, searching for that handsome picture results in 7 pages of results, all mine! (Don't forget, too, that a picture is worth a thousand words )
What?! Seven pages! My four look measly now. You sir, are on my short list.
Yep - you've been beat out, and badly so. 7,000 to 4 (the thousand word thingie). Hardly worthy of even a mention. You are not on my short list; you aren't even on the scope at all! Neener, neener!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, I guess this is something for the rest of us to aspire to.
If I enter "Mark Ewbie HubPages" the second entry on the page is your Hub about me. That's great.
No it's really great - well done.
hahaha... oh dear... that's strange. I didn't know I was even visible on the internet other than by search or whatever. Gosh, i hope you don't mind. I meant that hub as the highest compliment.
Hey no problem. The next one down is "Is Mark Ewbie a Homosexualist?"
Well we all had our suspicions.
Hey, who conducted that interview of you and when was it?
?
No, on that web search of your name... it had an interview. It was good. I just wondered who did it and when. Did you take insult? Im sorry, none was intended.
Oh sorry Beth - I thought you were joshing me. I do so many interviews. Is it a Wizzley one?
no, it was hps but it didn't have a name attached or a hub page.
Ah THAT interview. That was Simone who used to work at HubPages. She sent me a list of questions and I made a real effort to appear a reasonable person.
I spent hours on those question Beth. Really. Hours. It was a chance to sell myself, my big moment - finally the breakthrough. Ah well.
lol. Well you came across well and likable... it was funny. What more could you hope for?
Thanks Beth. My hopes are mainly traffic and money. I feel like its always just around the next corner.
That was interesting! Ha, I have more pages than you. I found out where some of my hubs have been posted on FB and some of the sites that reference my hubs.

I noticed that one of my hubs used to be high on a google search list and it was getting quite a few hits on it. It was listed in the same way as the title of my hub. Today I searched on the same term and, to my surprise, it was no longer there. I had to search down through the...

The way that HP uses affiliate is unique among larger sites that rely heavily on natural search.Here individual affiliate ads are scattered through the site in a pretty random way. On other sites affiliate ads are avoided altogether or grouped in special sections ('the shop', 'reviews').It is easy...

I thought if a hubpage was listed in Google search it was featured. But apparently that is not the truth. I guess I will keep the hubs up and run my own check on them.

This week i have noticed a massive reduction of traffic from 1200 to 300 views per day. When I searched Google, I found that most of the Hubs have reduced Google ranking. The Most disheartening thing is pages that over take me in Google search are in fact advertisements and few sentence pages. In...

I have been on Hub Pages about a year and I have written about 27 Hubs and they have received close to 5000 views, which I felt was not bad and my status hovers between 82-88. Last week I had about 8 of my Hubs featured, which again seemed ok. Now magically overnight, I have all these codes now...
