I have a lot of ideas that I want to do here on HubPages. My main topic for now is writing and literature.
But I also want to branch my ideas out. I also want to be able to write about lifestyle and relationships.
I notice a lot of authors usually stick to one niche and one niche only. It makes me a little reluctant to get out of my niche.
Can I work on different topics or is it better to stick to only one?
Alot of writer's on Hubpages write on different topics.
You can be in more than one niche site.
You can! I love how I can publish a horror movie desire list on here in the morning yet spend the evening publishing cute cushion referrals on Amazon!
Athena, welcome to HubPages. They're many niche sites on Hubpages including lifestyle, gardening, parenting, medics, and natural health. In fact, the type of niche here to write about is vast. You're even free to write m on other yebsites other than hubpages.
Writing online requires consideration of how you project a sense of expertise and authority. Many writers on here deal with this by adopting a certain subject area which they explore in depth. This can be effective.
Others, like me, write on a variety of subjects. Perhaps the biggest headache for this approach is writing a profile biog that somehow covers all the bases.
We can write bios tailored to our individual articles? So if I write a garden article I can write a bio on my gardening skills and if I write an article on pets, I can write a bio about my expertise with pets. It's on the editing page. You click on the arrow in the bio section and it gives you the option to write an alternate bio.
Yes, there is short article biography and a longer profile biography. The article biography is not an issue for writing on multiple topics.
All the answers here have cleared my doubt as well as a new author.
It depends on how much one can cover. More and more variety, is welcome.
Writing variety of articles is good. Even if the author is a specialist say on biology, they even write on a book review as Alicia(Linda) recently did. But it's best one write on a topic within the bio framework.

I have been pleased with the audience and revenue for my articles on HubPages since joining the site some years ago.I commend the company for creating the successful niche sites at a time when similar sites were folding. My existing articles that moved to those sites have done even better than...

Hi,Do more experienced Hubbers have any useful tips for getting your article moved to a niche site? I kept seeing advice that goes something like "make sure you write a high-quality article" but it just seems so vague to me. I have 9 articles now and the only one that was moved to a niche...

What is more fun? Writing dozens of articles for a niche or writing all sorts of articles from holidays to teeth whitening? And leave aside the fun, what about the money - which has more potential? What would you rather do as a writer on HP - niche writing or free lancing?

I'm speaking mainly on your HubPages account, but also any side (or main) blogs. Do you think it hurts or helps your Hubs to have a diverse group of articles or is it better if it's all about one thing?

This has got to be some sort of joke. This site is not an easy place to make a fast buck. I knew that when I started. I then did the apprenticeship. It hasn't done me one iota of good. I have written well over 70 hubs, some of which were HOTD. My earnings in the last week are [redacted] ...

I saw backlinking as one. What exactly is backlinking? How can we use Google Webmaster Tools to improve traffic? What are the changes to be made in the crawl rate after logging in, if any? Its been close to three months into Hubpages and I am getting a majority of my views from Hubpages. My Google...
