How do you make new friends on HubPages?
I've heard more than a few Hubbers say that they've made new friends on HubPages. My question is: How do you do that?
Simple communicate effectively, leave engaging comments, read peoples hubs & many of them, message someone who has communicated with you frequently via your hubs or forums, and maybe one day, they might just consider becoming a friend of yours, a hub pal & not just a Fan looking to get traffic or something of the sorts.
You might actually do the same to someone, by considering them a friend of yours on Hubpages, someone who you took a liking of their writing style, and communicative skills. Networking is what we are all here for as well, besides just writing. It's like a writers social network here, you know. Great Question by the way.
Give them genuine compliments and praise where deserved, show interest in them, find hubbers who have similar interests to your own, and start conversations (be sure to ask them for their opinions and thoughts), and you are on your way to some Hubships. ![]()

I just noticed that Matthew replied to a question from a Hubber and immediately closed the threadThere used to be an unspoken policy on the forums - a thread was only closed if things got too heated and unpleasant. I hope that policy is not going to change, for several reasons. For one thing,...

To date, I have been denied permission to ask and/or answer questions because of revenge? mark downs by disgruntled hubbers. I get blocked for a while, then un-blocked, then blocked again. Also some of my Q&As are deleted by HP staff without notice or a chance to defend my position. The Q&A...
