There are so many successful and talented writers here on Hubpages that I was reluctant at first to write any article purporting to "increase earnings". I'm actually earning a living by working at home writing articles now, so I figured "what the heck?". Here are some of my tips for new Hubbers that might help you increase your earnings:
<snipped link - do not promote your Hubs in the forums>
This is called self promotion, although I realize you probably didn't mean it that way, and prohibited in the forums. The only forum where you may post a link to your hub is the extreme makeover forum.

I've had a few people sign up under my trackers when I send out emails of my hubs, but I was wondering what some of the rest of you have done as far as setting up a more unique way to have friends and family sign up here at hubpages? For some strange reason I don't think my profile link for sign...

I have noticed that, when signed out, there is a new homepage. I am not sure whether the new format is helpful. There are some great hubbers featured making statements on how much they earn from this site, the rewards and a massive video that talks about HubPages. There are also...

There’s so much talk about Medium and how great it is. After all these years I’m still a huge hubpages fan. It’s more laid back and passive income from a website that’s been around for so long is more valuable than anything. I even reached out to hubpages and they let me know that if I passed away...
