To use a link of someone elses hub inside of your own hub, do you need to get permission from that person first?
Thanks for advice. I see what you all mean about it being a comment to them if I use their hubs. I would be thrilled if I knew if someone was using mine! Rochelle Frank...I'm checking yours out now! :-)
I don't think it is required-- most people are glad to get it, but it would be nice to ask. You are likely to get a quick 'yes'.
(You can link to any of mine .)
People are on HubPages because they want to be read. The more links, the better. You certainly do not have to ask. But if you do inform them, they may recipocrate.
Just link to another hub if you want to, it is only going to benefit them!
I know it isnt required, but I like to let them know. It might be not exactly what they agree or like - the subject material.
I know that I wanted to link with someone on one of my valentines hubs and so asked because it was a sterotype of what men really think are cool gifts when women dont thing that at all.
It was good. Now I have a good friend and he helped me make the adjustment more appropriate to encompase ideas from both hubs.
I think it is whatever you feel comfortable with really x
It's a great way to network, so let them know and they will thank you for it.
I think it's a good thing to let them know. Think about it. If someone links to your hub, that's a compliment and means that they think your piece is worthwhile. So let them know!

I've had links to my own related hubs snipped on several occasions (mostly blatant lists at the end of a hub), but some links have been left in place after several snips. So is it acceptable to include a link to a hub which may be very relevant to the specific content in a section of a hub, if it...

In reviewing my traffic sources recently, I noticed that I was getting traffic from a site called traffup.com, which I had never heard of before. I went to the site and signed up for it to see what it was all about, and found that someone had posted a link there to one of my hubs. I thought...

I feel kinda silly asking this because I can't find any mention of this anywhere in the forums... If I want to put a link to something in my hub, as a reference for example, do I need to get permission from the particular site or page before I do?I completely new to writing internet-style. My...
