I'll appreciate feedback and comments on the hub; http://hubpages.com/hub/Suggestions--to … fectively;
sorry guidebaba, I didn't check the link, I think it should work now http://hubpages.com/hub/Suggestions--to … ffectively
yes, its active now.
Hi Prem : You have already done a Good Job. Please have a look at my Stats:
I can see an "Earnings" Column in the picture that you have uploaded in your hub but there is no such column in my stats. With 73 sign-ups and over 21K hub views I have made $0.0 . I diverted traffic from my personal site to HP for sign-ups. They signed-up and published and I make nothing. This is Very-Very-Very frustrating.
Now I am renovating my website and have REMOVED all links leading to HP.
Useless.
guidebaba, snapshot shown in my hub was taken few months back and during that period there was a column showing rough estimates of earning. HP has removed the earning columns 2-3 months before. It was discussed in the forums and most of the hubbers and HP were of opinion that this column was creating confusion as it showed only rough estimates.You should not remove links from your blogs as you are still earning with these page views and sign-ups if they have written few hubs and getting some traffic. Your earnings are directly credited to your adsense account by HP.
I don`t think if I am in position to point this out, but I would suggest a flat sign-up bonus for each referral, may it be 1$ or 2$.
You can certainly point it out, but what you aren't is in a position to make it happen. The current system provides a reward in direct proportion to the contribution of the people you refer. A flat payment per user would just encourage the referral of low quality users.

I make far more from referrals than from my own hubs. If you track the urls of your own hubs and your other websites in your AdSense account then you'll find that a proportion of your hubpages earnings are not from your hubs.
For me less than one in 10 hubpages clicks are mine. The rest come from hubs created by referral signups. I have around 35 hubs but my signups have 317 and I get 10% of their clicks. I think referrals can be more significant in terms of future earnings than hub creation.
Traffic from those hubs has just hit 200,000. Much higher than my own traffic!
Thank you Rik. This is REAL Encouragement. I am almost done with the renovation of my website and this time I have placed the link to HP on the page that is specifically meant for writers. I guess now I will get SERIOUS people sign-up.
Thanks once again !
Ray or Guidebaba
Paul is spot on - most of my 27 referrals produce nothing - only 2 produce significant numbers of hubs and earnings. It wouldn't make financial sense for hubpages to pay us a flat rate to signup low quality users who provide no revenue to share.

It would be really helpful to see what the monetary value of each hub is per day or week or month (preferably per day or month) as an additional column on the main statistics page. For example, a Hub that was published years ago may have many views, but since they were acquired over a long time the...

I have been a member of Hubpages for 6 weeks now, and only made 32 cents through adsense - I have 18 hubs, with pretty good keywords. Does anyone have any suggestions to increase my adsense earnings? I am pretty new to this.

Why do so many people skip rating a hub?
by Aurelio Locsin 14 years ago
I posted some articles here about three years ago and came back to write a few more.I noticed that my previous three articles have almost no traffic (about 600 hits).As far as I can tell, I've written them and my current ones correctly with interesting topics, good grammar, links, photos, polls,...

Okay, guys! What am I doing wrong here? I have written 39 hubs, and only made $4.94 on AdSense. That must be the hardest earned $4.94 of my life - no joke! I made more than that in one evening of babysitting 25 years ago.HELP!! Please!! I have heard it takes...
