Is possible to receive earnings commenting on other people's hubs if you don't have any of your own?
I came across a Hubber (he answered my question on earnings this month compared to last) that didn't have any hubs at all of his own. He had 12 people following him though and he seems to just go around leaving comments on other peoples hubs. Is it actually possible to earn on Hubpages just by commenting on others hubs and not building any of your own hubs? His comment just said he doesn't compare, so I don't know if he actually earns anything or not.
Not that I know of, though I know you can now earn money on questions you ask based on ad clicks on that page.
Thank you for your answer, Jennzie. Perhaps that's what he does. Otherwise, I would think, that he would get tired of contributing to everybody else's content without any return for his invested time.
I think some of the Hubbers are using the referral tracker to promote other's hubs, and you do make money that way, and it doesn't effect the one who wrote it. So, both wins..... He might be doing it. I read an article on that, but can't remember who wrote it. Maybe, you can do a search on that.....
Comments already gives earning for the people who wrote the hub not the commenter. Simply, as when you leave a comment, you give the hubber a pageview and an impression.
Did he tell you that he didn't have any hubs or were you just assuming because he had none on the profile he posted with?
Some hubbers use different profiles for posting on the forums and publishing hubs.

Do you continue to read hubs of those you follow if they don't comment on your hubs?When you have limited time do you just comment on those who regularly comment on your hubs?

How do I get more comments on my hubs?None of my articles have more than 10 comments. I've seen some people's articles with hundreds and even thousands of comments even if their topics are similar to ones I've written, such as video game guides. Some of my articles have over 20,000 views yet only...

Basically, I mean that us hubbers put countless hours of work into writing one quality hub after another which in turn increases hubpages revenue, which allows them to enjoy the fruits of its writers dedication and labor. I know writing on hubpages is presented to us like hubpages is doing all us...

I have always had hub scores in the range mentioned above. How do I improve my hub score? All suggestions and help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Do you find that leaving comments and replying to them increases your stats, or does it take you away (time wise) from writing hubs?

How does a new Hubber with no Hubs and no Followers receive a score of 59?
