Okay, I get it, HubPages and its niches are super low on the list of things to do for The Arena Group. However, it'd be nice to get a ballpark estimate on when ad placement will be overhauled.
I mean, a herpes and warts article suggestion on a location article, and placed right in the middle of a capsule rather than before or after it....
It isn't even a great article by most standards, but can I at least catch a break on the ads?
Here you go:
https://hubpages.com/community/forum/35 … -articles-
Is the revert to only three unrelated articles supposed to be HubPages' official overhaul of advertising?
I'm not exactly sure what this addresses as it concerns the problem of slicing a capsule in half to shill for unrelated content. I'm happy I don't seem to have the 50+ problem like others do, though.
On some niche sites there are 50 suggested articles right in the middle of articles. I think most of us use Ad blockers while reading articles, it can help to avoid ads because they cut text and are often poorly placed, but how readers can avoid suggestions that appears in the middle of article and may confuse readers if the article has ended here?
As a workaround, you can try using shift enter for a new line rater than enter for a new paragraph to force ads out of text capsules.
Absolutely genius, I'm going to start doing this immediately.
It only partially works though because if you need to use subtitles, an enter is required after the title, otherwise if you use shift + enter, the paragraph text under the title will also be formatted as a subtitle (because it's the same paragraph, shift + enter only creates a new line, not a new paragraph and formatting applies to a whole paragraph). As an alternative to subtitles, you could just use bold text titles in text modules.
Thank you, this information is invaluable.

I was wrongfully accused of spinning an article and threatened with a ban. When I asked for clarification, I was told I used ai and then again threatened with a ban.I found an ai checker online and pasted one of the offending paragraphs in and it said 10% positive for ai. (So I guess 90% not ai??)...

Hi there,I was preparing a hub for publishing. After I finished my article, it has slightly more than 2000 words in total. So my question is, whether this article has the potential for getting more traffic or not?
