Do you click on at least one ad on every hub that you visit?
Should one click the ads on hub pages (others' hubs of course) only with the intention of making a purchase or in an effort to help fellow hubbers?
It is not something i have done, to be honest. Would be interested in answer's to this!
No, it is recommended and actively suggested that you do not click on other hubbers ads.It could be seen by Google as Hubpages playing the system.
An advertiser somewhere has paid for the click that you made. The click that you made for the sole purpose of getting that advertiser to pay the hubber, not because you were interested in the ad or had any intention at all of possibly buying something.
That does not rank very high in my book of ethics. Just above outright theft, in fact.
In addition, the value of ads on HP will inevitable fall as advertisers find that clicks from HP result only in a bill rather than some sales to go with that bill.

I got into an interesting discussion on another thread, and thought it would make a good thread itself. The question of the day is how do you feel about other hubbers clicking on an ad in your hubs?Personally I really don't see a problem with it as long as the ad interests them from a good quality...

Do you always share a new hub with your followers? How many of your own hubs should you share?Is there a specific number of times that you should share your own hubs with the Share button?
