Does anyone else find the categories on Hubpages limiting?
What is the best way to advocate for change?
Personally, I don't. I find there are a huge number of topics compared to *other* sites. Some sites ask for articles, stories, etc. on specific topics and you choose one and write your article etc. and send it to them. you wait to see whether they accept it, reject it, or want you to revise it. And some of these sites are quite limited in the number of subjects because they are a specific company. Textbroker, for example, tends to bore its writers. I tried to get on their site but they only accept American residents, so I only know from reading what other writers say.
absolutely..
i for one am not the one who writes according to categories..
and therefore to be asked to categorize my hubs out of the only available options is frustrating sometimes..
however my friend on a more positive note..it has helped me realize the usual categories of my writings;because I'm per forced to choose a category every time..I've actually come across my genre...
dunno about your case...but i must appreciate the question..!!

I noticed the referral tracker on the earning tab but I'm not really sure how it works as it shows me random letters and numbers. Does any of you uses it? I tried to find some information on the forum and YouTube but most are from years ago and nothing specific about referral tracker.

Does anyone else use the word, 'tifling'? If so, why can't I find it in any dictionaries?I wanted to use the word 'tifling' in something I was writing, but it came up underlined, so looked it up in online and hard copy dictionaries and could not find it. Is it a word that just our family uses? It...
