My earning program has not yet begun, and my Google AdSense account does not recognize my profile URL.I am getting depressed because it makes me think that it's a scam and a waste of time. PayPal is not available in my country. Please advise me honestly: should I stick with this site or move on to another?
Hi there,
HubPages does not use Google Adsense anymore.
If you don't have Paypal, you can't earn here.

Have you gone through the learning center and FAQ?

Not to be harsh, but before writing for any online platform, you must do your own research about the platform. Few platforms provide orientation programs the likes of which you mentioned too.
Also, be very careful about reviews written by bloggers and such. Most are just repeating info they read elsewhere. Some don't even have accounts here.
