I really want to make some kind of money writing, but I don't know how. I am trying to put myself out there, but I think that I am not trying hard enough. What does everyone else do to try to make money here on hubpages? Are there other writing sites that anyone can recommend?
Check these out http://hubpages.com/faq/
and http://hubpages.com/learningcenter/contents
there is a lot you can learn from here about how to make money on Hubpages
Patience is a virtue that you would need abundantly to earn online.
And then write 5 awesome hubs, at which point you then apply to Google AdSense.
Imho, you have already found the best one. As to making money, it can be a long, winding road...
I would absolutely agree with that statement -- a very long and winding road!!
Thanks everyone for the info. I guess I have a long ways to go. I will definitely check out check out those links sofs. Thank you.
Zuly, I suspect that you will soon run afoul of the moderators in that some of your hubs will probably be judged as too personal. Check this link in the learning center:
http://hubpages.com/learningcenter/Mode … ow-Quality
It contains a section on "too personal" and explains what is expected.
As others have said, it can be a long road and lots of work to earn much writing online. At the risk of self-promotion, you might also look at a hub I wrote on my first few months here on HP: http://wilderness.hubpages.com/hub/maki … -hubpages. It should give you an idea of what you are up against as well as provide some tips for newbies.
Another suggestion is to post a hub or two in the "extreme Hub Makeover" forum and ask for a critique. Better have a thick skin, though, because people will critique it and provide suggestions for improvement. I know!
There are a lot of good hubbers here that will do their best to help you get started. Just realize that that really is what they're trying to do - help you out.

Is HubPages trying to discourage its writers and get them to quit writing?Every time I publish a hub my Hubber score goes down then it goes up by 1-2 points and then down by 1-2 points. Then when I am not on here for a day or two it goes down by more than 2 points. This is very...
