To the survey requesting feedback, I responded that I was very unlikely to recommend HubPages to friends, and I appended the following:
If by December 30, 2025, the following changes are not effected, on December 31, 2025, I shall delete all of my 800+ articles and leave HubPages permanently:
1. Restore article page view updating.
2. Monetize articles within 48 hours of posting.
3. Increase daily earning to at least $1.75; it is now from about 3 to 14 cents.
4. Change my unfair scoring on Profile and Articles from 60s to 90s.
5. Repair broken links function: it currently flags numerous links as broken that are not.
I would like to know how others are responding to this recent survey request, if you care to share.
Linda, I highly doubt HP will respond to your requests. For over two years now, my response to the survey is that I would NOT recommend HP. This format has been doing a nosedive for years and it has accelerated the dive in 2025. It's my opinion that HP will fold in the very near future.
The survey is automatic. I would not prioritize it too highly with HP.
May as well remove your articles and leave now. This site is done.
I totally agree with your request Linda, but if past performance is any indicator of future behaviour, and it usually is, HP will ignore your plea. Whoever is running the thing displays no interest in engaging with those who make the product they are selling.
I would remove my 1,147 articles if there was a viable alternative, but I don't see one. Every time someone suggest a different platform others, who appear to know what they are talking about, come along with the reasons why its useless.
A couple of weeks ago, there was talk of something called Wix, I think. What happened with that?
Wix is one of the easier ways to build your own website, but there are others. The main advantage is that you have to do little to no coding.
Wix is a website builder, Rupert. I think you may be referring to Authory.com, which I introduced as a viable option to HP in a separate forum post, as a format to build your online portfolio. Patty Inglish, MS says she's tried it and likes it very much. Here's the link to that forum post:

Did you writers take the recent survey to recommended Hubpages to other would be writers? What is your level or degree of recommendation?

I clicked on number 1, which means I would not recommend joining HubPages today to anyone. Why? 5 reasons:1. When I joined HP 11 years ago, I signed up for a 60% share of the revenue. Today, management refuses to tell us what our share is.2. Passive income? My **s! I still engage with HP daily,...

Delete both comments and ignore her. Some people have no idea how to behave. I agree with you, Tess, there's no need to respond to every comment, every follow, unless there's a reason to.

There are a lot of articles on how to write articles to get good returns on HP. But, I doubt the reliability of many of them. If you have made $500 in any given month on Hubpages, please drop your HP handles and link your most poplar article/s. I'd love to read, follow and understand. Thanks
