My daughter, Sunstreeks, got me started on writing hubs. Almost all my hubs are about fishing. I have to start with what I know. My adsense is up to 49 cents and that is a thrill. One day it will be 59 cents and that will be an even bigger thrill. I haven't a clue what I am doing as far as the money making aspects. My daughter just tells me to keep writing. She is trying to teach me this stuff but I am slow so it takes time. She tells me I need to do websites. Okay, I have some ideas. I just wish I had paid attention more in typing class 38 years ago. I still suck as far as speed. And being computer illiterate does not help. But us old guys are smart enough to listen to the young people.
So I am working at this. A leisurely pace but it is effort expended that could otherwise be spent talking to the TV and complaining. I will get her back. I will write a hub about her.
Neener neener neener.
a journey of a thousand dollars begins with a single hub
you're on your way! welcome aboard!
I have yet to earn a single penny in nearly a year. To be honest, I no longer write for the cash. It's for the practice. My best stuff goes elsewhere.
It is a good feeling that's for sure! Keep it up and congrats!
Hey
Keep on writing and one day 59 cents becomes 69 cents and then a $1...
Keep this up in about three years you should accumulate around $150.00.
Good Luck !
Glad to hear you getting something for your time. I guess it would help if you got more productivity from your hubs....so

Nice to meet you and hope you do well.
49 hubs in two months isn't bad going. It took me a lot longer than that to write so many. Keep going and the money will start rolling in!
really?
hmm
i cofess i haven't been earning too much since i switched from adsense-targeted writing to creative writing, but that's fine for now because i'm just in this sort of mood. but when i focus i can do pretty well for myself
i'm going to go read you now.
Thanks everyone for the encouragement and the links. This is good. Write for profit or for fun or practice. It is expression and keeps us thinking.
Right!! Congratulations and Welcome here!!
Wow .. you've been busy! Good job and keep it up! I'll need to write more .. once my daughter starts school next week

I have been on hubpages for two months. I have read multiple articles on SEO and backlinking. Ninety percent of my hubs do not have backlinking. But I choose for a while to say no backlinking. It was "different" I thought and "original". ...

I am okay at writing and can go way more in depth then I have, however I am not sure it is necessary to have a good profitable hub. I only do things that are fun to me, but I was just wondering about a couple things.1.) I am suggesting links using the suggested links in hubpages, now I knows its...

Post them in here. Please don't post them in other threads, or start multiple threads for individual hubs, as it will quickly fill up the sub-forum and make it harder for people to offer advice when help is being sort.So, post links in this thread. Nowhere else. Thanks!
