Benefits of using HubPages Referral Trackers?
Here is my experience of URL trackers. I've been with HubPages around 8 months and have only written around 30 hubs. In that time I've also received 25 signups using my trackers who have in turn produced 201 Hubs. These Hubs have, in turn produced just over 100,000 page views. My 10% impression share is therefore around the same size as my share from my own hubs during this period.
In addition I've also received further impressions from links in my hubs, blogs or elsewhere on the Internet. What am I saying here? Well, you don't have to rely on your own hubs alone but can earn a significant proportion of your total adsense income via links to other hubs or getting readers to signup fro HubPages.
Before you ask, I know some of you are asking if HubPages has made me rich. Of course not. I'm here to have fun, learn, write and network with interesting people but have yet to receive my first $100 payout!

Arrggh!! Hubpages makes some simple things really complicated
Like referrals.1. Why insert an _referralcode into the URL. Couldn't you come up with a dynamic insertion solution? If an insertion was required, what's wrong with appending it at the end of the URL as in ?referrer=xyz? or would that make it too easy for hubbers?2. Why do pages like the Referrals...

Possibly dumb question about sign ups and referrals
I've read the FAQ, darkside's hubs, and several forum threads and didn't see an answer to this.If somebody lands on one of my hubs via a Google search, for example, and thinks "WTF is this cr*p? I could do better!" or (hopefully!) "Wow, this is so awesome - I want to join this site...
