I have not promoted this hub because only hubbers would be interested. Essentially, although I had a list of the sites, I didn't know what each was about, so I really had to go through all of them each time I was considering writing an article.
So I've put that knowledge to use so that hubbers can have an easier time to find where to aim for!
Hope it is helpful, and if I've made some errrors, please let me know.

Glad you liked. I was pretty sure I was not the only one who wanted something like this. 
Very helpful! A good idea.
Small error in listing PetHelpful under Paired life(or whatever) instead of making it a separate topic.
Aha. I knew it was too good to be true. Thanks. I'll fix it up.
Great info thank you. I do hope they eventually create a couple more sites as some of them are still way too broad for Google.
You are right. I also wish they would put a lot nicer illustrations and photos on top.
I don't agree they're too broad. Once upon a time, you had to pick a very narrow niche to be successful, but the risk is that you run out of material - so most people nowadays advise a broad niche, so you've got fewer limitations.
HOWEVER, broad is not the same as vague.
"Dogs" is narrow, "Pets" is broad and that works.
""Board games" is narrow, but "Hobbies" is not broad - it's vague, because anyone can do anything as a hobby, from playing board games to building a microlight in their garage.
Where HubPages has created broad niches, I think they could be on to a winner. Where they've created vague niches, I'm doubtful - a vague niche isn't a niche at all!
This comment just won comment of the week
Good job Tess!
Just one thing: all site names are conveniently linked to their URLs at the beginning of each paragraph except for the first one: Axle Addict. You may want to link that too?
I made a similar list a while back in response to a forum query. It includes all the sub-categories.
For quick look up, feel free to add it to your hub if you like.
