I haven't been very active on Hubpages, but I've been reading some forum posts indicating how people have been leaving Hubpages and/or griping about various things.
With that in mind, what do you folks think about InfoBarrel or other passive income writing sites. I'd like to particularly hear from people who have used InfoBarrel and find out whether or not you think it provides better earnings.
Thanks!
I currently have more articles on InfoBarrel than on HubPages. Recently I've been focusing more on adding HubPages than adding to InfoBarrel. I can't really speak a lot to the earnings as I don't have much at either yet (I'm working on getting some though).
I had felt that I had a good start on eHow before it was shutdown. And that is actually probably a large factor as to why I'm writing on both sites. It helps spread the risk around a little. If something happens to InfoBarrel or Hubpages hopefully it wont happen to both.
They do both rely heavily on google adsense so I'm working at different earning aspects as well.
Hope that helps.

If you do, how is search traffic to your articles there? Has there been a recent change from the Google Panda or Penguin updates? Would you recommend this site to other writers?

Does anyone know any other site similar to Hubpages? I'm starting to like this site and I'm realizing that it's really better than all the other sites so, it would be nice to find another similar site.Anyone?

Where else do the amazing author's on Hubpages display their work? Considering Hubpages is very fragile at the moment, I am researching a split of my hubs to another site as an insurance against hub pages going down. I've been told I have hubs that now 'shine' - I'd like these to twinkle on another...

People have suggested I join Infobarrel so I did. I unpublished and deleted a hub here about La Guancha in Tenerife and thought I would use it as my first InfoBarrel article. The first problem I ran into was it said I was using a keyword too much. The keyword was roses and I was saying that there...
