How do you balance your time writing new hubs and revising old ones?
Do you think you should spend more time improving hubs or writing new hubs? Or if you have found a good balance, what is it?
I don't balance my time well, but I think there should be a healthy balance. If nothing else, hubs should be updated so that they have text links to each other, so that one featured hub will improve the traffic to others.
Out of my 345 hubs, I have revitalized and revamped 102 hubs. Have 243 more to go. I will not write any new hubs until all my old hubs are revamped. This is going to take AWHILE.......
when i am lazy to write new hubs although i have the titles and draft, i would revamp my old hubs which are "unfeatured"I am doing one right now. Takes at least an hour to fix it.
Nice to read everyone's strategies. I am back on track with writing: Unfortunately, an illness prevented me from keeping up my writing. However, I always check if old hubs need revising.
Since where I have recently moved to has no internet I have found myself writing the hubs by hand and correcting them to my satisfaction at home. On my free days I come down to the library with my already written hubs and type them up when my time allows me to. After typing it up I then have the library print off a copy for me to take home. When I am at home I take another look at the hub and then add in anything I may need to make it a better hub or any other ideas I may have not thought about when I wrote the hub And upon returning to the library I edit my hubs occasionally however with the majority of the ones I have published I am satisfied with how they are presented.

I have been with Hubpages for about 3 months. My traffic is minimal at best. I read alot of the advise and tips. I modify my hubs to make the suggested reivisions. Although my traffic has not increased. Is it a good idea to update a hub often?

In fact, I wonder. I was a hub which titled "Losing Weight Phases" http://amrelnawawy.hubpages.com/hub/Los … ght-Phasesand it was featured before. But I had a problem with its URL, it wasn't SEO optimized. So, I deleted the old hub and created a new one with the same previous...

Do you spend more time on reading the hubs, or writing your own hubs, or doing both equally?

Well, I was coming to Welcome YOU to Hubpages! I'm sure Hubpages had a reason for pulling down your hubs and I'm sure that they told you why they pulled them down also.Why you would give up since you just started is beyond me. It shouldn't be too difficult to take care of the problem and get them...

I started hub hopping tonight after taking a long break from it. I like to be encouraging and usually go light on people, but some of these hubs were so bad that I couldn't help but mark them down. There were about 5 awful ones and just 2 good ones. By then, I had enough and quit reading them. I...
