Could Someone Explain Earnings?
I've read all the articles I can find on Hubpages Earnings, and read the official guides, but I can't find any explanation for why I'm not earning money on my hubs.
As far as I understand, each view of the hub counts as an impression.
Each impression earns a small amount of money.
Each click earns a further amount of money.
Is this correct?
Is there a delay in reporting earning, or perhaps a freeze on earnings until a hubber had passed "boot camp"?
Thanks!
Well, from what I've noticed, you don't get any money until a certain amount of "impressions" has been reached (40, 50, etc the number varies) so clicks are a faster track for money. as for when you'll get the money you earn, you won't receive anything until you've earned a total of adsense's minimum threshold of $100 USD. That's what I've researched jumping between the appropriate adsense and hubpages articles.
Thanks, TNT Husky, that's helpful.
I was more specifically wondering why Hubpages says my impressions are at zero while I've had at least 10 unique views.
Thanks!
I'm not sure about the impressions idea. I usually earn 3 or 4 cents every 30 or so views is my biggest understanding.
I believe there's more to it than you've stated, but I'm no guru.
Also, be sure to read about the controversy regarding your HubScore and the use of . Being at 68 makes it tough to be a earner, from what I understand.
It could just be too early to know, I'd only linked my Adsense account yesterday morning.
Okay, I was just jumping the gun: the results were simply pending. My mistake.
*embarrassed emoticon*
Thanks for the help!
You might as well rely on Hubpages earnings program, I havenĀ“t received anything from Adsense after 1 month hubbing and 12 hubs. Amazon and ebay are pretty tuff also.
Your first earning report will probably be <.1. Something that freak me out, but it will impprove with every hub that drives traffic.

Hello. I have some questions regarding Google Analytics and Webmaster tools. Any help is greatly appreciated. When I checked my webmaster tools, I saw a lot of URL errors, a 404 crawl error because apparently "Googlebot couldn't crawl this URL because it points to a non-existent page"....

Okay - It seems there was an update to the definition of our earnings. I cannot say when it occurred.Basically we are paid for pageviews. One payment per view of article, regardless of how many ads are delivered to the reader, unless they back out before the first ad is actually viewed. Then we...

When I checked my daily earning for the month of August, I noticed that I got $18 CPM; and $0.18 Dollars for 31 days. Now, what I am seeing on my ad program summary is $0.88 CPM, and $0.07 Dollars. Please, how is this earning being calculated? Is it not per day earning?
