Transferring questions to my sub domain?
I've not been on HubPages for a few days and I've got a new Q&A button, when I click on it I get an option to transfer my questions to my sub domain. This seems like a good idea as we can earn from our questions, but before I transfer them I was wondering if there is any down side to doing it?
As far as I can tell, no. Putting them in your subdomain means that they'll have better SEO results, and it will mean you can earn from them as well.
I suppose the only downside would be if you have asked a ton of low quality questions. Low quality questions would be similar to low quality hubs, it will bring your pagerank down. Other than this, switching questions to a sub domain will allow you to earn revenue from them as well as your hubs.
I really don't see any downside. You can always delete questions or answers that are inappropriate. The upside is a bit plus, with the ability to earn revenue from the questions and answers.
This is a great additional revenue feature that HubPages is giving us. I already transferred my questions to my subdomain earlier today. And in reviewing the number of hits and answers they had, I decided to delete two of them. The way I see it, we are in complete control. And the traffic reporting for our Q&A is just like what we have with our Hubs.
I transferred my questions yesterday and I saw a dip in my hubscore. I only had five questions and three are not related to my groups. Also, two of my questions only had a couple answers. I think this may be negatively affecting my results. I wonder what defines a low quality question, in terms of traffic?

Ok, so since the Penguin update I have sat here listening to lots of Hubbers complain of loss of traffic. Now we're not talking a little fluctuation in numbers, we are talking 80% gone overnight! For people who use Hubpages as a form of income, this is a serious issue. Up until...

I know this isn't a suggestion for a new feature, I'm suggesting the removal of one, but this seemed the best category for my post and the most likely location for it to be seen by a staff member.Can we all think back to January of 2011 when Hubpages traffic was decimated by the original Panda...

Technical question. I'm currently transferring a domain from godaddy to bluehost. Have completed transfer through bluehost but godaddy is saying because I changed some of my WHOIS information they are going to transfer block me for 60 days. From what I can find online it's illegal for them to hold...
