    I have now done 7.  And let me tell you...

    lol

    Here are some thoughts.

    I started the challenge thinking I could do quality and quantity, but now I am not so sure about the quantity part.

    And that's fine.

    My goal with participating was to figure out the elements of making real money on HubPages -- and that's the goal I think of Court and Hup.

    I know we're all doing this for our own reasons -- and nobody's reason is better than another's.

    I have spent a lot more time researching than writing this week -- which is not what I would have predicted.  Monday evening, I would have thought that my seemingly extensive keyword research on Monday would have been enough.

    Each day, I've thought of some new wrinkle to consider.

    Today, I think the old "light went on".  I found Paul Edmondson's hub "How To Find a Niche to Write About".

    http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Find-a-Niche

    It's basically about long tail keyword research, and I ate it up! You might, too.

    I spent the afternoon researching new niches based upon his tips, and WOW! I found a few I really want to write.

    I think Paul's method shines the light on the path to success 'round here.  But I see now that 100 hubs might not happen for me -- especially since I have to take a couple days to focus on something else.

    Given Paul's advice, I did some experimenting tonight with HC hub #7 from me.  One thing I tried was the (very) long trail title, but I think it just may get crawled by morning (I hope), and if I interpreted Paul's advice correctly, I am sure it will land on page 1 of G right away for my target 3-word phrase.  (I'm not boasting.  Paul's hub just really changed things for me.)

    If so, you can bet I'll let you know -- and if so, I'm betting on Adsense going up.  And if not, I'll tweak things until all that happens.

    I am very much in love with HubPages tonight, and it's all because of this challenge, whether or not I make 100.

    If you read this far and you want to see my new hub, here it is.  There's a YouTube clip of me at the bottom of it (which explains the check in my avatar).

    Go hubbers!

    Time for sleep.

    I also checked out a hub I did on my characters, Fawn and Spot, that I just posted this morning. I typed Fawn and Spot into Google and my hub, The Life of Fawn and Spot so far is at #3.

    Now this is an exciting challenge! I wish I had the time, just a few more hours in a day and I could do this. It takes me about an hour to hour and half to do a hub. But I will be watching for all these great new hubs to come out!

    I'm starting to run out of steam... I've got 18 published and 2 more left for the day plus 1 to write and probably publish.. I'm just out of steam. :-(

    I don't have time to search google for my hubs, but I know that not had many views on my stats for google for the HC hubs that I've published so far. Eh, I'm not too worried about it... In time, I'm sure the views will come. Can't really see too much in just 5 days I suppose.

    To Anyone Running Out of Steam, or Just Adrift, in the Hub Challenge,

    Yesterday's post by Court on his blog -- TheKeyWordAcademy.com -- may just help you.

    I found it helpful.  If you also read the comments, you'll see our on Lissie there with some great input.

    The stats that are listed on http://hubpages.com/hub/Diary-Of-A-Mad- … You-Part-2 are from all my hubs not just the hubs in the hubchallenge.  And the adsense amount doesn't include revenue from my personal blog and other resources, just hubpages.

    I know I am jumping on the bandwagon a little late, but I still think I can do it!  I am going to try for 100 hubs in 30 days, but I will be really happy if I can do the 30 hubs in 30 days.  I do have a family and a full time job.  Good luck everyone and I have been enjoying reading all the new hubs.

    Hi--I'm taking up the Hub Challenge, too, even though I'm four days late.  I've been posting about one Hub a day this week anyway, so I'll at least aim for 30.

      Awesome! The weekend is a great time to start!

      I have a ton of people in town this weekend, so my Hubbing has pretty much stopped for now. But, I'll be back in it (and catching up) next week!

    Damn ... did I really say I'd do 100?  Well, that was the idea, then I picked up some freelance work which needed to be done this week, so I'm a bit (lot) behind now.

    Just published my first, so that's 1/100 ... and tweeted it.

    Bonus points for tweeting.

    God, whatever will I write about in the next 99????
