Hubtrail Capstone Request?

1. 70

   Cagsilposted 14 years ago

   Hey Hubberville,
   
   I know there are plenty of people working on Hubtrail Hubs and I would like to post this thread, so as to get your attention.
   
   I, myself am working on the Capstone Hub for Americas and requesting a link from every person who writes a Capstone Hub for North America(all State Hubs should link to One Capstone, then have sub-trails from that source), Canadian Provinces or Territories(again one capstone, the sub-hubs), South America(each geographically label land/state should have one capstone, then sub-hubs, as well) and least but not least Central America(again same pattern- one capstone, then sub-hubs linked).
   
   I will be reviewing each hub for errors, tagging and design(quality of content), and leaving a comment on each.
   
   You do not need to post a link here, but if want to, do post your title of the hub, so others can know what it is about.
   
   As I review each hub, I will display them here, when done and added to my hub. Each hub will be shown as a reply to your title posted.
   
   Thank you for your time, effort and cooperation in this matter.
   
   Cagsil

            I read your OP several times over, actually, but do not see the point of putting the title of a hub without the link, especially if you are just going to add it in yourself later. Why create an extra step for people?
            
            If I get snipped for self-promotion, so be it, but I think that since you specifically asked for capstone hubs and Maggie and the other mods are aware of the HubTrails project, it will probably be allowed in this instance.

               The reason for posting the title only was to simply keep the thread alive. Since, I am not bestowed powers that allow me to make it a sticky at the top of the forum. By people posting just the title and not the link, but sending the link to me in an email, it prevents two things from occurring...it prevents the thread from dying and your link from getting snipped, because no one asked you post a link.
               
               I am also simply follow the rules of the forum, without favoritism being played. It opens up other doors that do not need to be opened.

                  Okay, I'll remove it, but I suggest you change the wording of your post a little, because as it currently reads, it sounds like posting links is fine. Also, you don't say anything about sending you the link by email in your OP.
                  
                  Instead of:
                  
                  "You do not need to post a link here, but if want to, do post your title of the hub, so others can know what it is about."
                  
                  say something like:
                  
                  "Please do not post a link to your capstone here, but send it to me by email. If you want, you can post the title of the hub here, and I will post a link as a reply to your post when I have reviewed the hub and added it to the Americas Capstone."

         Hey PDH, you can do whatever you like. It is up to you, I just asked people to do a simple task when they are done with their Hubtrail Capstone Hub?
         
         Is there already a Texas Capstone?  Dallas would be a sub-hub, under the Texas Capstone, because Dallas is a city of Texas.
         
         You are more than welcome to write whatever hubs you like. I am only looking for CAPSTONE Hubs, so I can finish my Hub.

               I'm a little confused about this.  Are we saying there can only be one Capstone Hub per state?  Yes, I did a Texas capstone hub, but it only has hubs I have written about Texas.  I assumed anyone else with Texas hubs could do the same.  I didn't think I would become the "official" hub.

                  I don't think there are restrictions on that. I know Florida has two capstone hubs. I think the key is linking the Hubtrail hubs together and making sure the tags are correct.

      Hey Habee, I have no clue if someone is working on it. That is one of the reasons for this thread. I need the Capstone for each State.
      
      Those who write one, send the link via email and post the title here, when I am done adding/reviewing, I will then post the link here.

      Just to let you know- the keywords on your Georgia Hub need a few more - (a) hubtrail capstone (b) hubtrail americas and hubtrail north america.
      
      You can take out - "hubtrail" by itself, once you put these others in or not, up to you.

    Actually, AEvans there is still a problem -
    
    You now have two of the same keyword, and the difference between them is the "dash".
    
    You have hubtrail capstone and hubtrail-capstone
    
    These are the same thing, when Search Engine look for them. The dash is not paid attention to or is treated like a space.
    
    So, you can remove one of them.

       I've left a couple of the hubtrail tags because RedElf had asked me to.  She's including me in one of her feeds.
       
       BTW, only the first 15 tags will be picked up by the RSS feed.  I think that's how it works...  or I might be hallucinating this answer from last week....

    Cagsilposted 14 years ago

    Then I would suggest that you prioritize your keywords, so that HubPages' feed picks up the appropriate keywords it needs.
    
    Hence, make sure that the hubtrail keywords are ahead of others, so as to be within the first 15 keywords.
    
    I realize you are tired and I am a patient person. I remember reading that same thing you did. I also remember, the advice I just gave you, as an answer to solve any problems.
    
    That is why the keywords are essential to connecting the entire network of hubs that are incorporated into HubtrailTravelGuide.com and pinned to the GOOGLE Map, which Arthur is doing.

    Ohma and Cags, have I thanked you both for all the great help and work that you're doing on the HubTrail guide?  I know that I haven't thanked everyone for all their contributions, so THANK YOU!!!
    
    I've edited the tags in both hubs and brought the hubtrail tags to the top 15.  Is there an easier way to move them up (like drag and drop...which didn't work for me) instead of deleting the top ones and then rekeying them in?  This didn't quite work either as a page refresh replaced these at the top again. I just deleted the tags I thought were unneccessary (or just in the way)    couldn't care less at this point other than having the hubtrail tags at the top  :lol

       when you're writing for cities, they could also be a capstone if there are other hubs about the city you want to include or if other hubbers have hubs they want to contribute.  I have a capstone about Tampa Bay because it includes other hubs about the area and I have them all linked together and it does say Hubtrail Capstone in the title.  I also included hubs that I found interesting in the Tampa category of HP topics.

    Hey Beth,
    
    The tags you should have on the hub -
    
    hubtrail americas
    hubtrail canada
    hubtrail province/territories
    
    The rest of the tags make relevant to your content.
    
    When I have a finished mine, it will include Canada, as it's own Capstone, so no one needs to write a separate hub for that. I am including it in mine about the Americas. This also includes South America and Central America.
    
    Each will be represented in my Capstone for Americas.
    
    So, anyone working on hubs, Capstone hubs for anything belonging to Americas, send me the links via email. Email is easier than posting to the forum.
    
    Thank you Beth and Everyone else too.

       Hi there - I emailed Ohma about Canada capstones, some weeks ago, and if you check Marisa's site, you will see a network of Canada capstones is set up -
       
       There are already country and province capstones for most of the provinces and territories (except NF-LB, which I am starting next) and Beth is working on SK and PQ as well as MN, I think.
       
       Sorry guys, I didn't keep checking back in the forum - I just went ahead and did the work after my original posts. I guess I should have let you all in on what was happening.
       
       Oh well, the more the merrier, I guess!
       
       We are running into a tag problem though, as I have emailed Cags.
       
       
       
       
       Here's the list of completed capstones -
       Canada (me )
       British Columbia (Thanks, Enelle - super hub!)
       Alberta (thanks, Beth100 - great hub!)
       Ontario (thanks again, Enelle!)
       New Brunswick
       Nova Scotia
       Prince Edward Island
       Yukon Territory
       Nunavut
       Northwest Territory
       
       Here is a list of tags:
       
       All hubs for our feeds need these tags - hubtrail, hubtrail-canada, hubtrail-americas
       
       For any travel hubs on BC, add the tag - hubtrail-westcoast
       For any travel hubs on AB, add the tag - hubtrail-outwest
       For any travel hubs on SK, add the tag - hubtrail-prairies
       For any travel hubs on MN, add the tag - hubtrail-prairies
       For any travel hubs on ON, add the tag - hubtrail-outeast
       For any travel hubs on PQ, add the tag - hubtrail-belleprovince
       For any travel hubs on YK, NT, NU, add the tag - hubtrail-upnorth
       For any travel hubs on PEI, NB, NS, add the tag - hubtrail-maritimes
       For any travel hubs on NF-LB, add the tag - hubtrail-therock
       For the Canada Travel hub, (hubs not specific to a single province) add the tag - hubtrail-cantravel
       
       I have also developed an info sheet and a forum post to troll for "Canada" travel writers.
       This is the blurb I have asked everyone to include in their capstone hubs:
       
       Do You Have A Hub For Us?
       Do you have a great travel Hub featuring Canada's Maritimes <change designation for your province – eg. Canada’s Prairie Provinces> that you would like to have included in this feed? Here's what to do:
       
       Add the following tags to your Hub:
       •    hubtrail
       •    hubtrail-canada
       •    hubtrail-americas
       •    hubtrail-maritimes <change tag for your province – eg. hubtrail-prairies>
       
       Make sure you have only 15 tags altogether, including these new ones - otherwise your hub will not appear in the feed.
       
       If you have travel Hubs about any other parts of Canada, or special Canadian events, please check out the other capstone hubs for the appropriate province tags, or drop us an email through Hub Pages. As well, please include an RSS capsule with the following feed: http://hubpages.com/tag/hubtrail-capstone/hot/?rss
       Happy HubTrails!
       
       
       
       I hope my efforts don't cause any confusion, and we can all benefit from this great idea.

    Hey Beth, I am including it. I am breaking down each section, so it is easier to work with. I am waiting to have about 30 or so hubs attached, by the time I publish it. I do not want it to be bare, so I am waiting for more hubs written. There is no time-frame set on publishing.

    Hey Sandy, the hub looks awesome. Another great job.
    
    On a side note- you do have to change something - a keyword/tag.
    
    (a) hubtrail fish creek  - does not need to be there
    (b) hubtrail americas  - should be in it's place.
    
    You already have fish creek wisconsin. If you would like simply take off hubtrail from the keyword and leave fish creek by itself.
    
    This way you can best use the RSS feeds that are in place.

    Attention Hub Writers, who are writing hubs for Hubtrail project, which continues to add hubs daily.
    
    However there have been questions and Ohma has her hub to help, and Travelespresso just published a new FAQ's hub about hubtrail.
    
    There was a comment place about Continent tags and that is the reason for this post.
    
    Hey Travelespresso, I saw this on the feed and figure I would help out by answering it - the tags are:
    
    hubtrail Asia,
    hubtrail Australia,
    hubtrail Africa,
    hubtrail Middle East,
    hubtrail United Kingdom,
    hubtrail Europe
    hubtrail Americas(includes Canada, South America and Central America).
    Do not include the word "continent" it is not required.

       Thanks for the list Cagsil - just one silly question - should the tags be hyphenated? e.g. "hubtrail-Americas"
       
       Or does it not matter?
       
       Thanks

          It does not matter. Search engines to not recognize the "hyphen" as anything but a space. However, it is best to not hyphen, because keyword search is dependent on words and phrases.

       Thanks for answering my question Cags.  Sorry about the confusion re snipped links on the Hubtrail FAQ's - I'd just woken up and I was still half asleep!
       
       I think the above tag should not be Australia - it should be Australasia.  This is confusing a lot of people.  Australasia then covers the country Australia + New Zealand, Norfolk Island, Christmas Island and Cocos.
       
       Let me know your thoughts.

          Hey Travelespresso, I would have to say yes on the tag selection for Australasia, simply because that is how it is categorized on HubtrailTravelGuide.com website.
          
          So, that change should be made. And, is on me, my mistake.

       Hey Figment,
       
       I would like to add a few things to you hub.
       
       (a) hubtrail mississippi *keyword/tag
       (b) hubtrail americas  *keyword/tag
       
       Then I would like you to add an RSS feed to the end of your up, either before the comments or after the comments. Some are doing both ways. So far, it is not an issue, as to what format would be right(consistent).
       
       The RSS Feed can mix your hub in with others that are connected to Marissa's website HubtrailTravelGuide.com, not to mention, it will be pinned to the Google Map. Plus, Haunty has a page dedicated for feeds also.
       
       You can find out more on either Travelespresso's FAQ's page or Ohma's Hubtrail Hub.

             Actually, you do need to correct something.
             
             The tags you put in place say hubtrails
             
             It is Hubtrail.
             
             No need for the "s" on the end. Otherwise, good.
