Happy Anniversary!

   Sorry to be conceited, but I have to take this opportunity to mention my 5th anniversary on HubPages.
   HubPages has been a fantastic opportunity for me to learn from others and teach what I know. I started at the beginning of my college career, and it's become a sizeable part of my life. I recommend it to people who want to kick-start their writing career, or make some extra money.
   I can remember when I started and I looked up to Hubbers like Robin, Jimmy the Jock, and Moonmaiden. I wrote my first few Hubs on marmosets and Christmas. My Christmas Hub got a comment from a soldier serving in the Middle East who was away from home during the holiday - he told me that my Hub made him feel like I was at home, and from that moment I knew that HubPages was more than scores and revenue.
   For anyone who is starting or is considering starting, I heartily encourage you to give it a shot. I feel like you get what you put into it, and considering I've invested 5 years into it, I feel so satisfied and ready for more Hubbing!

   Congrats on your 5th Anniversary!  I just celebrated my 3rd anniversary a couple of weeks ago.  I have to agree with you....writing here has been (and still is) a fantastic opportunity!

   How does make money on here? I know tons of people who are good writers here who have been here over a year or more and haven't made any...

      I can tell you that it took me about a year before I got my first check! Just keep writing and don't get discouraged!
