The recent change to using niche sites has doubled the number of views my hubs are getting. As someone who writes on a number of topics, this has been just what my work needed. I'd like to thank the staff for making the changes; for always being professional; and for putting up with me for this long. I doubt the staff hear enough of this sort of thing; so thanks... keep being great.
I don't have any credits to niche sites. But, I hope it will be of much use in future for me also. So, I always am with all of you and love HubPages very much.
Thank you Thomas, and others in this thread, for the kind words! We're keeping a close eye on the traffic stats (which are looking good), but it's so much more rewarding to hear that so many individual Hubbers are having a good experience with the Network Sites. ![]()
Network Sites?
I reckon HP need a new name to cover the new empire.
Google has Alphabet, how about (raiding the thesaurus)...
Hubambit
Hubcompass
Huborbit
Hubreach
Hubspan
Actually, Ambit would be rather nice, all on its own, but probably taken.
Hambit might be less good.
I know that I should type "thank you, HubPages," and I do, thank you that is, but here lately (a rural term) I have not had that many comments to thank you for, so at least I am thankful to you for understanding.
E.G. Christy, Matt, Camille.
I said a similar thing it really is good to see the views going up makes it all worthwhile! ![]()
Many of my Hubs that have been moved to niche sites are doing really well. Definitely some improvements in traffic/earnings. Really was a good move to create these niche sites.
Same here. The team's subtle editing is professional and helpful. All my moved articles are at the top of the list on my stats page.
Thank you.
I'm sorry I can't say the same. Ever since my best hubs were edited by Hubpages staff some time ago and now shifted to niche sites, my views and earnings have plummeted.
I noticed my views and earnings are up significantly since several hubs have been moved to niche sites. Coincidence, or are these niche sites the cause? Either way, I'll take it! Something is working! :-)
Hubpages Rocks! I agree this article site stands the test of time. Squidoo closed its website and Examiner . com closed its site as well. Many Hub-members are talking about transferring their articles from the sites that were shutdown and bringing them over to Hubpages. Thank you Hubpages! for going the extra mile, only the strongest and fittest will survive.
I have had three hubs moved. They had a spike for a couple of weeks but now settled back with normal traffic, and not at the top of my hub tree. Still, I congratulate HubPages on the initiative which seems to have benefitted most of those with hubs chosen for the niche sites.
Hi, Yes I am also seeing an increase in traffic on hubs moved into niche.

Hi fellow writers,Yesterday I recognized that the homepage of HubPages has a new design and in the mid of this I discovered a fellow writer with the most earnings here at HubPages. He's a member since 7 years, has published 55 articles which have been read over 1,000,000 times and he makes over $...

I just read on another thread that we must add the niche sites to our AdSense account. I don't know anything about this and don't know how to do it. Could someone please give step-by-step directions on how to get this accomplished? I don't remember hearing about this when the niche sites started....

I'm pulling 2013 kind of randomly, but I really miss how HubPages used to be. It used to be a really friendly place. We used to have kind of an "in" with the administration in that Maddie and Simone would give us advice. There used to be contests to motivate us to write.I understand that...

I decided not to leave hubpages but since my traffic was split in half several months ago it seems as if my subdomain is struggling to get back up.We all know that Google, the internet master, prefers niches sites over content farms (sites with multiple subjects). Given the newest update and...

This has got to be some sort of joke. This site is not an easy place to make a fast buck. I knew that when I started. I then did the apprenticeship. It hasn't done me one iota of good. I have written well over 70 hubs, some of which were HOTD. My earnings in the last week are [redacted] ...

Should I submit the article with the highest hubscore for a higher chance of approval?
