    Thank you for your continued contributions to HubPages.  This is a final reminder that on Thursday, October 31st, 2024, we will start operating Dengarden and PetHelpful as standalone sites within The Arena Group. As of Thursday, October 31st, The Arena Group will no longer be able to share revenue on content that remains on Dengarden and PetHelpful.

    Please be aware that content that remains on Dengarden or PetHelpful may be strategically moved to a different brand at The Arena Group. For example, an article on Dengarden about home improvement may be moved to Parade Home & Garden. This means that your byline has a chance to be featured on Parade or other TAG brands. If you have a username that is not your real name, consider changing your author name and bio so that the article is associated with you.

    We appreciate your writing and expertise and hope you continue creating content for Discover.HubPages and stay a member of our community. If you want to request your content on PetHelpful and Dengarden move back to Discover.HubPages, email lwinter@thearenagroup.net by Tuesday, October 29, 2024, to ensure a smooth transition. Please include your username in the email.

      I tried emailing your address, Lisa but it failed. Has your email changed?

    Hello Lisa,

    Will Delishably still attract writer income, or, should I move those articles to Discover as well?

    Thanks

      I don't understand. How would you move your articles to Discover?

        Look I haven't kept up with what's going on so wanted to confirm that I wasn't going to lose articles that weren't in Discover. Lisa was good enough to email a reply very quickly on this.

      Delishably still exists. Why move your articles there to Discover?

    Unless I misunderstand the situation, we have zero control regarding where our articles are published.

    I believe that the only exception was that for a time we could ask for articles in two specific niches to be moved to Discover.

    All other articles go wherever TAG wants them to be.

    If Lisa has said something different, please let me know?

      No Paul you are quite right, Lisa hasn't said anything different. By saying 'should I move those articles to Discover' I wasn't meaning myself - but just referring to HP moving them. I just wanted reassurance that the Delishibly articles weren't going the same way as Pethelpful, for example, and out of my control. As I said, I haven't studiously being following along with these changes on the forum.

      We could request a change of network site. For instance I had an article moved from Dengarden to Owlcation and then I asked for it to be moved back again when it didn't do well because of competition and it being removed from rankings by Google because of the Site Diversity thing. I have been refused a move too by Hubpages.

        Dengarden no longer exists so the way I see it you're giving an example of a choice that's disappeared.

        I always wrote on a diverse range of topics and had stuff in many niches.  I'm basically down to five network sites on this account and two of them are Discover and hp.com, so even the "asking nicely" approach is increasingly limited.

        I don't believe that we have any meaningful sense of control and see the options as only diminishing further.

        All that said, there doesn't seem to be any niche that's doing well, so I feel it's academic. If that sounds fatalistic, it's because I am.

        I had a tea garden article under DenGarden. With the recent changes, it ended up in Discover. I reworded the piece, and it's now under WanderWisdom. Whether my revenue increased from such efforts is hardly the issue these days.

    It's interesting how these changes can shift articles across platforms. Moving from DenGarden to Discover, and now WanderWisdom, sounds like a journey in itself! I've noticed that reworking and relocating content sometimes boosts its visibility to a new audience, but as you said, revenue can be unpredictable. I wonder if these transitions have helped your article find a different type of readership or if it’s been largely the same. Are you planning to rework any other articles to see if they resonate better on different platforms?

    Really? You have no articles.

      Apparently doesn't understand what the word "platform" means either.

    As requested, I made the changes in early September. Now, since then, even though my visits are rising, my earnings have plummeted by approximately 75%. What's the point of making the change if the payout is similar to if I didn't make the change at all?

      The point is, you still retain control of your work.

      Makin, you missed the point of the evolution of Pethelpful and DenGarden. TAG wanted to "kidnap" these articles and make money without the original writers getting any monetary reward. The best TAG offered was a byline with their "prestigious" online magazines. I suggest reading Lisa's thread.
