I've recently started publishing articles on different topics here on hubpages. And I was looking forward to grow my audience. So, what's the best way to do that?
It depends on the topic. Personally, I use FaceBook and Pinterest.
My topic is usually top 5 lists and stuff related to media and entertainment. I made a Facebook page with my friend yesterday to promote my content there too
One of your articles has the URL 5 Weirdest Food Delicacies, but the title is Top 5 Diet Plans For You To Follow.
Although the URL doesn't have to be the same as the title, it needs to have some correlation. If you are changing the topic, it's best to start over.
No I'm not changing the topic. The original topic was weirdest delicacies, but then i decided to change THAT to Best food diets. So that's why that little mistake happened
You are missing the point and misreading the grammatical construction of my sentence. Let me change it. Your title and url should be similar and on the same topic. If they are not, then it's best to begin again.
Pinterest is the only one that's worthwhile. You could also setup a Facebook group or page.
Did the Facebook thing yesterday. Will look into Pinterest too. Thanks eugbug
I find social media traffic pretty worthless, even in terms of SEO. They do provide short bursts, and sometimes, ensure a small amount of traffic every day.
However, advertisers pay little for these, if at all. The common believe is that social media traffic can be easily manipulated, thus "worthless" for advertisers. Frankly, I think working on the SEO of the article is far more beneficial.

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...

I believe in private companies' rights.But, like our nationally regulated gas, power, and light utilities, has the internet and social media platforms reached utility status?I think it can be reasonably argued that internet access has become as...

So, on the one hand, it is said you should promote Hubs on social media: Facebook, Twitter, Google+; and of course, don't get spam-tastic. Maybe use hashtags so the content is more easily found. The other option often suggested is to comment on forums and have your signature there or something...
