After 18 months of writing, posting, reading, commenting and generally have a grand time on HubPages I was surprised to see that I finally made some earnings.....a whole nineteen cents worth!! I can't even get a Chiklet! LOL I cannot stop laughing!
....too funny...come on, not even a chiklet? ....mine is '-25 cents'...i owe someone
...thanks for the laugh!
Thank you, TamCor! LOL I find it very amusing.
LOL....I've made a few cents more, but not much. It's truly a love for doing these Hubs, the moola is icing on a cupcake! Have a great day!
lol congrats at least you got something b/w I lost the 12 cents after changing the hubpage domain..
@tarrka~I'm with you. I came here to write and read but, like you said, if I happened to make some money with them, all the better!
@lakenannika~I didn't think they could take your earnings away once they've been earned. I'm sorry for your loss.
Well done. Only another $49.81 to hit payout. You might be young enough to buy a rocking chair!
ROFLMRO!!!! Yay, me! I have so much to look forward to. Maybe I'll start looking for a really comfortable one!
Congrats! I only recently made my first few cents too so I know how it feels. Even though it isn't a lot it encourages you to keep writing lol
18 months? That's pretty long for that, i also came here for passion, but for my first few weeks on here, all interesting hubs were based on how to make money. So i figured i could do both at the same time. I dont do much of backlinking cos i dont have time for it, and yesterday after five weeks i have earned £0.68. Yesterday's was £0.38. I am so much happy about it. And congratulations.
I hope to be able to make a little money on here. Any advice on what kind of content actually sells?
It's not so much what content, but the way it's presented. I gave up trying to write for keywords, products, and all that stuff, and I just write about what I know. I spell check everything, check the grammar, and most importantly, you MUST fill out the Tags, Summary, and Title properly. They should all have the main focus word in each of those places.
Just write about what you know, but write about it well. People will start reading your stuff because they like to read what YOU write, not just because of the topic.

Do others think 50 video capsules in one hub is too many? LOLI didn't start out planning to have so many but my undiagnosed OCD kinda kicked in and I just couldn't stop.I tend to think for users with an older PC with not much RAM they would have issues with my hub. Works fine with my 2 Gigs of RAM...

My stupid pc decided to get stuck, and by mistake I clicked on flag! yep on my own hub! Duh! So just in case you get a flag from me.....on my own hub.....please ignore it!

Do you tell all your friends that you write on HubPages?
by Holle Abee 14 years ago
1. Any "slap" by Google is in direct proportion to the number of hubs you have. For example, in most cases, if you have only a couple of hubs, you got a "love tap" from the Big G. With 755 hubs, I received a full roundhouse punch.2. It takes for freakin' ever to go through 755...
