I would really appreciate it if a couple of you would take a look at my hubs and tell me what I'm doing good or bad. I'm really new to this and feel I need some more experienced help.
Your hubs are pretty good for a newbie! Just try whenever you can to use more than one text capsule to allow for more AdSense ads, and I would definitely throw in some pictures, possibly videos, etc. Nice start!
What's been said is ok. Your hubs are nice for a start but you just need to add some TAGS and photos. Make your hubs alive with photos or illustrations...etc
Thanks for the input. I'll try to re-publish my hubs with a few upgrades. REally appreciate it!
I agree, always break your text up into several capsules. It allows best ad placement, plus it's easier to redesign your Hub later, when you learn more about layout!
Add some photos - don't take photos from places like Google Images, though, because they're copyright. There are several free photo sites but my favourite is Flickr, because you can get some real "left field" subjects there. Use their Advanced Search, and tick the "Creative Commons" and "for commercial use" boxes - that will bring up all the photos you can use.
You then have to thank the photographer in your Hub and include a hyperlink to their Photostream. I usually do that in the credits at the end of the Hub.

Do you reply back to each person who leaves a comment on your hubs?Please explain the reason why you do or do not. I am wondering if I need to do this or not since I have noticed that some folks do this pretty faithfully.

Ok, here goes. I rarely get involved in the forums, I guess I am a little on the shy side. I have been here almost 2 years now and have published over 80 hubs. I have only had 2 ever unfeatured and have deleted those and a couple more that I thought just were not up to par. My...
