Although I have been here for a while I have not worked very hard on this site. Instead, I have been having a blast here on Hubpages. Making the first $100.00 seems like a bonus somehow as I enjoy writing my articles anyway.
I have learned much about how to increase my traffic but again, I do not work too hard at it. I have several other means of income so I guess that has something to do with it.
Just thought I would post this for the other members who do not wish to destroy their joy of writing. There's no reason one can't have fun and make a few bucks at the same time, is there?
YAY, double bonus for you, keep on writing and enjoying the fruits of having fun at the same time! cheers....
Thanks PDH, it is indeed a double bonus!
Getting paid for something you enjoy doing is not a common thing. A few people get a chance to enjoy this.
Well done!
I am double lucky Ultimate Hubber. Since I run a small farm I can enjoy the outdoors and plenty of hunting and fishing. Plus, some days I rarely see a human being at all! I am indeed a lucky person.
Awesomeness Randy! Gives me hope that someday soon I too will reach my first payout.
True, Kidgas! I think many expect to much too soon and I agrre with "Patience is a virtue."
Congrats Randy, Cheers for many more. Got mine this month the cheque and it is indeed the real deal.
Congrats! I hope to be in the same spot some time in the future.

How long did it take before you started earning $50 to $100 a month on Hubpages?I try not to think all too much about the earning part on Hubpages since I'm still new here (4 months), but when you're earning literally NO money at all... It's still a bit discouraging.

Well, I would have made it sooner if it hadn't been for stupid Panda. But after a year, I finally got to the place where I've achieved payout in one month! Now if I could actually get a payout every month from now on, I'd be happy! I think I quite like HP new advertising plan after all.
