Why have you chosen to write on Hubpages?
There are articles claiming that Hubpages is a scan. They suggest that It is impossible to earn a substantial amount of money on Hubpages. This leads me to believe that the authors of these articles were writing for the purpose of making money and not for the love of writing . Therefore, I want to ask you, Is wrting something that you are passionate about or do you write for profit? And why have you chosen Hubpages as your writing platform?
Interesting Chinadoll. I find nothing wrong with being $ rewarded for producing a quality article, short book, etc. It takes time to write a quality article. In my case, I write because it provides me an outlet for sharing my photos, art,, ideas and information. would i like to be paid to afford me the opportunity to spend more time writing? Yes!
My love of writing brought me here and keeps me here. A little money on the side is also great, but I write just as passionately whether there's money involved or not.
I've seen lots of those obvious "money making" writers while Hub Hopping, and it's really gross stuff. I mean it's just so OBVIOUS they're doing it for money.
Then there's the mix of quality writers who make a living at it. Props to them; they're living the dream.
To tell you the truth, this is my first experience with a site like this one. I did not even used Facebook! I was so elated to be able to write on a public media,that I paid little attention to the money matter. I am doing what I love, on my own terms, and sharing it with the world. What else can I ask for ! I have shared so much and turned the attention of readers to the causes that I care for. I am here to contribute my grain of sand in a sea of free thinkers.
People cosider the hubpage as their money making engine. I am also believe, so i continue.
I am passionate about writing and joined Hubpages so I would be forced to write more often. So far, I have reached that goal.
I somehow bumped into HubPages, and happily stayed to contribute. I get drawn more and more into the group's people and squabbles and similarities. I never search if an article I'm going to write has already been written because I don't want to bias my own writing based on another article. I just want to write original things people will feel helpful or interesting, or at least funny.

How do you maintain a positive attitude and not give up on writing at HubPages?With the recent google changes, the virus alerts, and the viewer drops, how can a person stay upbeat and positive writing on here? I am beginning to question this.

I was on another thread and someone said many people sign up on HubPages, but very few go on to write a substantial number of quality Hubs.I wonder why this is and what HubPages can do to encourage people to stay on and improve their Hubs, which seems to be what they want.All my Hubs were recently...

as a writer? This is in reference to what others said on a different thread about why some people are leaving Hubpages. I thought it might be nice to talk about the issue not in reference to any particular hubbers who might be leaving. I have never been able to make money on my writing, but I don't...
