    I got so excited about taking this challenge that I started building Hubs right away. As of right now I have 5 Hubs built, but since I am just starting the challenge today I am only going to count the 3 that I have published today.

    I am new at building Hubs but will do the best that I can to build 30 in 30 days. If anyone has any advice for this newbie Hub builder please feel free to share. Please no hateful advice.

    I will be posting my stats here so that I can get recommendations from more advanced Hubbers on what I can do to improve them. I am looking forward to seeing some great results!

      Cuzzo, welcome and it's great to see your enthusiasm - however I don't recommend you jump into the 30 day Challenge straight away.

      You will do much better with fewer, properly crafted Hubs than 30 thrown-together ones.  There is a learning curve to building good Hubs - you need to read the "how to" Hubs by Hubbers like Darkside, as well as the Getting Started guide. If you can do all that study plus create 30 Hubs, go for it - but most people can't. 

      There is an "Extreme Hub Makeover" thread where you can post one or two of your Hubs to get specific feedback.

    Cuzzo,

    It is important to set goals. Make sure you also focus on quality with your hubs. Set a steady pace and stick to it.

    If your goal is to make money, then do your keyword research and SEO optimization. There are a lot of really good hubs you should read on each subject.

      Thanks for the advice Keith. I will make sure to do some keyword research and that my Hubs are as SEO optomized as I can make them. I am on Day 2 and have 8 Hubs done.

      I hope to make as much money as I can from my Hubs. I not only want to make money off of them now but for the rest of my life. I feel positive things coming from this experience.

    Alright everyone! Day 2 went really well, I got 3 new Hubs completed today for a total of 9 now. I am going to post the links to the new hubs in the appropriate place. I appreciate all of the support that I am getting here.

    Ok, Day 3 is here and I got one Hub done today. This puts me at a total of 10. I haven't stopped to check the stats but I have been getting comments so I have a feeling everything is going alright. I am a third of the way finished and can't wait to get the other 20 done.

    Ok, Day 4 I published 5 new hubs today! I am half way to my original goal of 30. I am thinking that at the rate I am going I will probably bypass 30, but am still focused on just getting the original 30 done. Thanks for all the support that I am getting from everyone.

    Go for it. But do listen to advices above... 30 hubs could be breeze but original interesting content is challenging.

      Thank you Hubchief I have been trying to do some keyword research and write on the keywords that will get me the most money from Adsense. If anyone has any ideas about Hubs that I can create please feel free to drop off a few subjects and I will create a Hub about them. Thank you for your support.

        Best way is to look for unanswered questions on hubpages and write a good descriptive hub. Some of my hubs I created like that. Then use the Google keyword analyzer to assign money making keywords to your hub. Normally 20-30 good relvant keywords should help...

        Also do not forget to post hubs in hub-makeover.In fact even till date I put my hubs in hub-makeover to get feedback from the pros. Some very good tips on my recent post is there.

          Thank you for the advice. I will look into a few of the unanswered questions and see if there are any that I can answer by creating a Hub. I will also put a few of my Hubs in the Hub makeover to see if I can get some constructive criticism on them. Thanks again for the help.
