    Hello, here we are starting a new month after a very successful contest last month. 
    A big thank you to all the HubMobsters who took part in last week's HubMob, we wrote more than 60 hubs on the topic.  You can find them all in the round-up hub done by rmcrayne, do not forget to visit her World Tour of Vacation Destinations hubs and show her your support for the fantastic job that she does every week compiling all your hubs under one big round-up hub.


    This week we are going to start getting ready for the holiday celebrations and we are going to be writing about gifts.  The perfect topic to make good use of your Amazon and ebay capsules to generate some extra income for the holiday season. 

    Let's write about all those fantastic gift ideas that you have been keeping secret all this time.  This week you can share your ideas about best gifts for children, women and men.  You can also share gift ideas by occasions like birthdays, baby showers, Christmas, Halloween, anniversaries, etc. There is so much to write about, I have a feeling that we are going to be showered with gift hubs this week.

    To join this week's HubMob please follow the steps below:

    1. START YOUR HUB CLICKING THIS LINK.  Choose the "Answer the Request" green button.  Choose the "MAKE A HUB ABOUT IT" option. 

    2. Choose a relevant title for your Hub to get a good ranking in the search engines, AVOID starting your title with "Weekly HubMob"

    3. Include the HubMob RSS Feed in your hub: http://hubpages.com/question/76213/hubm … ew&rss For more information on how to add the RSS feed to your hub you can click here 

    4. Add one of the HubMob graphics  You can use the special graphic at the start of this thread http://i665.photobucket.com/albums/vv19 … ifts-F.jpg which was created for the topic by  wyanjen, or the traditional HubMob graphic below.
    http://i43.tinypic.com/rup3mg.jpg

    5. After you publish your HubMob Hub, come back to the forum and post a link to your hub with a brief description of what you wrote about and why.  Take advantage of the free publicity!

    Have fun!

        So sorry!  You absolutely have to go through Princessa's "click this link".  This is what gets you in the HubMob RSS feed.  You can always go back and add your HubMob graphic and RSS capsule.  BUT you have to start through Princessa's link.

        I have put up a 2nd hub on gifts; Thank You Gifts...

        While it is not practical to give a thank you gift of alcohol to individuals who are minors, individuals who simply do not drink alcohol for religious or health reasons, if you know that the individual you are thanking is not averse to alcohol the gift of a drink is the way to go when extending one’s “Thank You.”

        ...and this time I went through the link Princessa provided, phew!

      For some reason I am having problems posting the hubmob graphics.  I finally got it to come up under a text box...yet when I was done editing, and republished it, it doesn't show up on the page.

      Where do we apply the graphics?  I tried to follow the instructions, yet I must be missing a step...somewhere?

      Any help, I would greatly appreciate?  Thank you:)

        This is the url for the graphic: http://i665.photobucket.com/albums/vv19 … ifts-F.jpg

        You can either
        - click on it and save it to your computer and upload it from there to your hub in a photo capsule

        -or you can copy the complete url in the IMPORT a picture section of a photo capsule.

      I have created a hub on Gourmet French Handmade Chocolate because I'm a big chocolate lover and I think a luxury chocolate gift is suitable for many occasions, Christmas, valentine, thank you, sorry, congratulations and more.
      Even for those who have nearly everything, it's a gift they will enjoy.

          rmcrayneposted 13 years agoin reply to this



          I love the idea of roundup hubs (aside from what I do every week to roundup HubMob hubs, giving each hub a backlink)!  I'm planning to do some roundups to group and organize my hubs.  I have over 200 hubs. If someone is interested in food and recipes, I'm sure they will not want to sift through my music, health care, alternative medicine etc hubs to find food and recipes.  Then I can post the half dozen or so roundup hub links on my profile.

    Thanks for the suggestion about round-up hubs. It's a great way to showcase some of your hard work, and give a boost to some out-of-season articles.

    I hear you Rose Mary - I have over 200 hubs as well, and round-ups hubs are such a wonderful way to organize them for others to browse! ...and posting the links in your profile is just too organized wink
