How long can a hub be?
Is there word limit? I have something that is very long.
I don't think there is a limit to how long a hub can be, but I would worry about keeping my readers interested. You can either break it up into smaller hubs, or have lots of pictures and videos and polls and such to keep the reader's interest.
There is no limit as far as the rules. A very large number of capsules may cause a problem to load more slowly, and editing could become a technical issue.
Worry not about the length of a hub but about the quality of the hub. Long winded hubs lose an audience very quickly. You will want to give just the right information for your topic without drowning the reader with it. Your hub should be easy and quick to read. Hope that helps.

Take one of your old hubs, update it with new content, better photos, improved titles and add some additional modules (make it a stellar hub effectively) and then post it here for critique!

In their teachings on writing stellar hubs, the HubPages staff has sometimes said that an ideal hub is 1,500 words long and has sometimes said that an ideal hub is 1,150 words long. Numerous hubs by hubbers on hubbing have recommended that a hub should be at least circa 400 to 500 words long, at...
