What do you do to promote your hubs?
This could have been in the forums but I am not asking for myself, just generally wondering. Once you've published your very latest hub, what happens next? What do you do for promotion and to get more views?
I don't always promote them simply because I get enough comments from my followers and newcomers to my reviews as it is. However because I already have a Facebook profile I sometimes share (not press the Like button) the link there. I don't see sense in joining FB and making a group like "JakeFrost on HP" if you don't have one and such. However, if you do have a profile go nuts and do so if you want to.
Others use sharing on other sites, and just tell people about their articles IRL ^^
Since I'm still a newbie to Hub Pages, and only have about 6 or so followers, I try to generate as much interest as I can within my Facebook and Twitter community by sharing my hubs on those pages. I also tell my friends and family about my hubs in hopes that they will continually show their support and read my hubs.
I always go check new hubs out and after seeing you here went to your page . I am not into horror so won't read your hubs but I hope you do well anyway . I get viewers from facebook,stumbleupon etc .
I promote my hubs using many of the social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. It makes it quiet easy when you have a lot of followers. Really developing a social media base is key.
Write them, add a "Made for Pinterest" image and leave them be. Google does the rest.
Since I have both a Twitter and Facebook account I use them to promote my Hubpages. I also share them on SocialAdr Bookmarking site.
I share mine on facebook and twitter. I've read somewhere that you've got to promote as much as you write. I'm going to follow that advice. ^_^

Just wondering what sites Hubbers use to promote their articles? I have seen a lot of changes over the years with some sites no longer allowing links in forums or comments, and some article sharing sites just going away. I primarily use Facebook and Twitter these days to share my...

If we pump up our use of social media, i.e., marketing our articles more, will it help increase our traffic much? Or won't it make much difference because we are more dependent upon organic traffic? Something tells me we might have to wait out this drought. What say you?

I've noticed something kinda weird, after I write something, I put it on Facebook, because I've worked hard on it, and letting everyone I know that I have written a new hub. Do they or even even disliked it or leave encouraging words? Nope...nothing....zip, zero. I'm not sure if they know...

Hi guys, I'm hoping for some advice. Basically here's my issue: I enjoy writing informative articles that I believe will be useful to people. However, I can't stand promoting my hubs.The thought of spending my time scouring the Web looking for places to post it, opening tons of social media...

A few years back when I did Examiner.com, the writers were always talking about where is the best places to promote our work. I feel like once you use all your social media accounts, hit up any forums related to your topic, reddit, and network with people you know, you're really out of places...
