Way to go HubPages. Us too
See what hard work gets you? Some grumbling and the odd pay check? As for us Hubbers, fun all the way
I credit myself for this success. HP should thank me by paying off my mortgage.

Where did you spend your vacation last year?It will be a good source of information and experiences that fellow hubbers and HP readers might try to go to the places you'll be sharing.

What to do when one of the hubber here has visited one of my hub 52 times and rewritten my hub?This is one of my most successful hubs. The hubber has never commented on my said hub, but has almost rewritten everything from my hub. I got her link from the stats of my hub and was shocked to discover...

In the blog post about moving away from subdomains Paul referenced comparing HubPages to competitors several times. To me, this indicates HP has identified certain sites as typical of the kind of site HP is attempting to morph into. I ask because I think it would be helpful to have some idea of...
