Should I list my hubs as blogs or as links. I can't enter contests, and I want to make sure I am getting backlinks.
Links and the create new blogs about the same topics
Thank you, I am just learning more about linking and getting more traffic.
Okay, I'm new to RD too. This is a stupid question, but I'll put it out there: what's the difference between the linked HP article and a blog on the same subject?
Links are very basic with little description pointing to Hub
Blog is an article an the same subject that you can refer to the Hum through a hyper link for more info.
I never knew that! Thanks Ohma! Guess where'll I'll be for a few days...weeks...months.... ha ha ha
you can do both.
a bookmark link mostly has value for Google backlink help. Doesn't take much effort, just a short original blurb will do.
then you can write a short blog post, (150 - 250 words) about the topic of the same hub. You can include a pic and anchor text link to the same hub in the post. Be sure to caption ( or alt=) the pic and you get double the links and keyword help for google search, plus human interest with the post.
you can do this for each hub you bookmark if you have the time. I rarely practice what I am preaching though. Time is tight and I usually just bookmark for the one link.

I'm a little behind the times. I really need to get started with Redgage! I feel like I'm the only one on here not using it.
I have signed up with redgage but when I login it asked for an activation code which I never got. I mailed to it's support several times but still I could not get it! Can anybody help!
cupid , did the email for the activation code go into your spam

Is anyone familiar with how RedGage actually works? I'm unclear about whether I can post entire hubs, or just links there. Also, if I'm posting my entire hub, will HP then deem it copied content? Any info on social bookmarking sites in general would be helpful.

I don’t think they did it on purpose, but I just saw on my feed an article which is almost the same as an article I wrote around a year ago. What do I do, comment on their article with a link to mine or just leave it? I don’t want to lose traffic but also don’t want to upset that person or make...

I just completed my first year on hubpages. Until recently, I haven't had any issues getting my hubs featured. Just a few tweaks coming from Squidoo and all was well, but recently with every hub I edit, I get a lovely e-mail from HQ saying, "Your hub could be featured . ....

I am always surprised that guest blogging is never discussed on HubPages. We all know it's important to have backlinks pointing to our Hubs and websites. We also know that Google is working hard to detect and devalue links which are artificially created - things like directory...

I've read over and over the "get quality backlinks with Qassia" line.Is it true? Do links from this site help?How do you do it? I know you write the "intel", but where does the backlink link to? Your profile? Or can you change it to different hubs each time?
