Why Am I Still Not Making Any Money At All?When In fact I have an excellent hub?
Am I Gonna Be Able To Make Money Out Of This Hubs?
It's largely about marketing yourself and your hubs. After each of my Hubs gets published here, I scour relevant usenet groups and post messages trying to direct people to my Hubs. Since my posts are often about books, I also post messages to the book communities I'm part of. I've seen some increase in my traffic, but not much. I've been here about 2 months, and have $10 credited to my Google account. Luckily I just do it for the fun of it.
In order to make money you have to write original content, they should not appear anywhere else, and write about topics people might be interested in. It usually takes more than 5 hubs before you start earning money.
From what you have said you only have one hub, and it is hard to make money at it when you only have one hub, as said before it does take hubs and a bit of time.
Yes you can make money, but it depends what you would consider making money out of it.
Are you writing the hub to be informative?
Or are you writing it to make money?
You will never become a millionaire with just one hub. You may be better to have a lot of very interesting hubs, promote them well and try to drive traffic towards them.
One Hub? You need many. Quantity beats quality any day in this game. You have to be prolific. Then you have to look into getting links from other places to your Hubs so that Google thinks they are important. It's just like a high-school popularity contest.

I'm new to HubPages, so give me a break if this is a terrible question. I nearly have 40 followers, and I have posted 15 hubs in 5-6 weeks. When do you start making the big bucks?

I joined HubPages 4 months ago for one and only purpose - making money and becoming rich overnight. I thought, "Of course, all I need to do is put some articles out there and money will pour down from everywhere".Fast forward 4 months, I have barely made $2 from those articles. So I...

If making money wasn't an option on HubPages, would you still write for this site...No matter if you make pennies a day or dollars. This question isn't about how much money a hubber makes. I'm just curious how many hubbers would still hub if they weren't earning money for the pub or to get some...
