Question On Earnings, and Where I am going wrong?
1) How do you achieve such high followers on a per article basis?
2)Are you actually earning what I have been reading of $1.00 average per article per month? I only ask this as through all my advertising methods Digg, Reddit, Stumbleupon, etc. Have produced a decent amount of traffic yet my page impressions only reflect 25% of my actual traffic. Therefore my earnings have be very low when compared to the hours spent writing, and promoting each article. I guess when it boils down to it, I am just not sure where I am going wrong. I do my keyword research, write my article, then p

Should one include a copyright on each hub?Sometimes I see them on peoples hubs and sometimes not. I've also seen them on pictures too. Is this something I should include on my own work?

What exactly do they mean when they say that, "again, links to well known resources like Wikipedia, news sites, will not be held to this same standard." When, or if, are we allowed to use more than two links to the same domain? Also, are they talking sub-domain or domain? Like, what is...
