What are the topics that are more likely to be read by other hubbers?
It would seem that health, cooking etc. (as for the general public) would reign winners, but I'm starting to think that maybe other people's poetry or just friends' hubs are most read.
Thoughts please
Speaking from my own personal experience. The other hubs that I look for more often than not have to do with ways to better my own writing and hub structure. Whether it's tips or reading things that made others hubs successful. I will usually read whatever those I'm subscribed to write, after all I did subscribe to them because I enjoy what they have to say. Fictional hubs and poetry don't really grab my attention all that much, though I'm sure we have some great hubbers on here that could rival the modern day short story novelists, it's never really been my cup of tea.
thebeast02 took my answer! lol. but I would definatly have to agree though. I read mostly articles that discuss driving traffic, techniques and tips on writing, etc.. although I did read today some stupid article about some dude that said he's a vampire. Entertaining to say the least.
In my experience hubs about hubs are read almost exclusively by hubbers. It makes sense, why would anyone else want to read them?
Cooking topic is also one of my favorite category. Also, I like reading humorous and electronic gadgets topics.
I've written hubs on herbal remedies and on care of the elderly that do quite well from Google searches, but I found that when I started writing poetry (it was my way of coping with a bout of writers block) my overall views increased significantly, and my following is also increasing on the strength of my poetry. So now I write both, poetry for the other hubbers, and other "useful" hubs for the general public!
As for what I read here, well hubs from people I follow, ones on how to improve my writing or how to get more traffic, and sometimes I like to go hub hopping, to discover more writers!
I think hubs about making money, saving money, fixing things and health articles.
