What is the laziest way to promote your hub?
As a matter of fact, I am not lazy. But I am a believer that a lazy person have innovative solutions to his problems. You can share your lazy approaches you did to promote your hub or any product you have.
My lazy approach is to create simple pictures that are shareable and putting them on pinterest. Works and their sharing/pinning does the work for me.
superb...I never thought to use pinterest...but your lazy approach bent my mind a bit..how well it is working for you?
Pinterest provides 20% of my views in this acct and 40% on another of my accounts. So pretty good for minimal effort.
I belong to a couple of large group boards on Pinterest, each with over 10,000 followers. Pinning something to those boards generates endless repins. If you can find a large group board in your niche, and become a pinner on it, a few clicks can bring in tons of traffic immediately, and steady traffic after that.
I also like adding recipe hubs to Yummly, which brings steady traffic.
awesome..I heard of yummly before and since my niche doesn't fit it, so never used it, but I wonder if its valuable only to the recipe niches?
I must be lacking in the pinterest dept. I did not know these boards existed. I thought you could only pin on your own boards. Guess I need to go take a look.

How would you improve this hub for success on pinterest? And, how would you have categorized it? I put it under mental health, but I'm not sure that's the best place for it. (I just couldn't find a better place)http://kbdressman.hubpages.com/hub/How- … ive-Person

I have been reading older forum posts and doing some research on my own for this question. I know some Hubers have great success with Pinterest so I would love to hear what you are doing that works. Thank you.

Happy Friday, Hubbers!Next week we will be raising the quality threshold for newly-published Hubs (meaning newly-Featured Hubs will, on the whole, be of higher quality) and will also be giving Featured Hubs (for those with high Hubber Scores) longer grace periods- up to a year for some.More...

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...

Did you wait until you had plenty of hubs and the ad accounts activated before you started promoting your hubs or did you start promoting right away?
