Average?

   Hello all,
   
   Just looking for a little feedback. I'm about 7 weeks into HubPages, have 18 hubs and have earned $3.14 in Adsense. I don't think I'm supposed to reveal the number of clicks, less upset Google, so I'll leave that out. I was wondering if this is pretty typical for 2 months in or should I be worried about earning so little??? I do try to backlink when I have time, but not sure I'm getting enough.
   
   Thanks any info!

      Sounds almost exactly where I was. I posted a topic in the HubPages Exchange Knowledge Forum last month called "2 months $3.00" - There was a lot of helpful tips there and encouragement.
      
      Just stay patient. Keep writing. Good luck!

   You're actually doing better at two months than I was - it took me about 9 months to get to my first payout as a casual writer.  Somehow, after hitting my second payout, I've managed to only miss two months as far as reaching payout.    Be patient, persevere, and keep writing.  Improve your old hubs over time, write about topics you either research well or know a lot about, and you'll see those numbers rise.

   There's not really an "average" (at least not without actually having access to every Hubber's earnings and times on HubPages).  As someone who doesn't, I'd say it very much depends on each Hubber and his particular mix of Hubs (with earnings being very much dependent on each, individual, Hub).
   
   From my own experience, and things I've seen others say on here, I'd say you don't have anything to worry about this early (and with so few Hubs).  I think had about $5 at two months and with more Hubs. You'd probably have a much better reading at - like - 5 months, I'm guessing.  Even then, though, it just depends on the Hub.

   I've been here just a little bit more than you and have made it to $12.  But I think having more Hubs up during the holidays probably helped.
   
   Everything I've read says things start out slow but keep growing over time, so I just keep making more Hubs when I have the time and watching to see what happens.
