Very much looking forward to this as well. Hope I don't have to wait all the way until June for my invite
Yes, working AdSense accounts are a prerequisite for the HubPages Ad Program. They're designed to be complimentary
......................................................Paradigmsearch......................................................Thanks for keeping us all informed and watching out for us hubbers, Paul. I for one, really appreciate it.
The layout is actually the same layout you see 40% of the time with your Hubs - it's what HubPages uses whenever utilizing its 40% of impressions on your Hubs.
If you opt into the HubPages Ad Program, that means that your Hubs will look like that 100% of the time instead of 40%.
So basically, nothing is particularly new - we're just opening up a more lucrative layout to Hubbers, tooThe layout is cool and Ads contained are very relevant. I love this development.
TahoeDoc - traffic is something that takes time to build, so be patient and keep on publishing. If you opt in to the HubPages ad program, you may see payout sooner, since the threshold is lower
But again, the traffic part is up to your Hubs and whether or not they are well-titled and written to be found in search results.
Awesome news
I'll look forward to the potential benefits, and I'm sure you guys must be pretty positive about it, judging on your 'test pilots' results!
Big thumbs up Hubpages- ryankettposted 13 years ago0
Great news!! Starting to see a trickle of traffic come back . I think in due time we will be able to determine what is needed to put our hubs back on top. At least I hope so. Paypal must be really excited too
3:23am here. I can now sleep in peace.
Just one suggestion: allow users to set the threshold point for withdrawal. For example, 5$, 10$, 20$, 100K$etc etc.I think the minimum threshold is $50 Sky. And maybe it's a faff HP hanging onto the money?
Edit - and you can leave it I guess, though PayPal have a habit of whipping a nice fee the bigger the sum
I hope I get an invite soon
That said, I'm sure I could wait till June if need be - maybe by that time traffic will have fully recovered.
Cautiously optimistic just now - traffic is creeping upwards!Thanks for clarifying that Jason, sounds okay for me then, already got Paypal and use it regularly
Just need the invite now.Cool!
Two of our nine beta users were, in fact, non-US (darkside was one of them). The only important thing to remember is that non-US participants still have to fill out a form saying they have no US activity in order to avoid withholding (it's a tax compliance issue for us). But that will be clear when you get the invite and start the process.All still sounding good. I am really getting excited now, can't wait to try it out
@Jason, I already got a functional verified PayPal. I'm also in great expectation for the invite. Thank you.
You're not being pushy! This is an fantastic new program and I can certainly understand the excitement.
I hate to disappoint, but we haven't set an exact date, scope or criteria for the next wave. A lot depends on how the first wave goes, if we were able to scale OK without any major issues. But, for sure, everyone will have access by June, if not earlier.
This is probably the largest single rollout we've done, technically speaking, on the site, so we want to make sure everything works as it's supposed to.
