Which is the best way to increase my followers on HP?
I realize that having more followers on HP equals more reads which equals more ad impressions and more revenue? But how do I go about increasing my followers on HP, which is the best approach to it?
Actually, Google searches typically constitute the vast majority of views and clicks. A strong following on HubPages might have a minor benefit, but it is very minor indeed when compared to search engine attention.
In any case, the best way to earn valuable followers is to just keep writing high quality content that others will find interesting. Niche writing is the best way to do this, but that's not for everybody. Try to be involved in other ways by commenting on the hubs you read, answer questions, and participate in the forums. These are great ways to get noticed.
It is some people's policy to follow others just for the sake of getting a follow from them in return. This will amount to very little as followers mean almost nothing unless they are genuinely interested in what you are writing, so don't waste your time with this behavior.

I am tired of being treated like a second rate author.They change some preposition, which is questionable, and they act like you are stupid. They are not even right quite often, then they rate, especially poetry, with low ratings. I am tired it!

Recently I'm noticing new members who have no hubs, no activity where they read or comment on hubs, and only join to participate in self interest and/or bleeding heart questions in various forums. Sort of using HP as a chatroom. Before anyone attacks me for this, please know I enjoy the discussion...

I am really not liking the front page of Hubpages these days. When I first click in to HP, I see a list of the five top questions and articles. It usually something about politics or beliefs. First of all, is that what the public sees when arriving to HP? Right now it is, "Trump Supporters:...
