1. Write hubs with solutions for which thousands of people are searching.
2. Write hubs which solve problems which thousands of people have.
3. Write hubs which are entertaining that will entice people to pass along links to your hub.
And most important-- Link all of them together in a way that will make everyone want to share them.
After doing this-- tell me how you did it.
That's pretty much it in a nutshell. Although if the search engines like your content, it will take less sharing or passing along effort on the part of your readers.
I write hubs on mental health, particulary bipolar/anxiety and I know they are very helpful, at least my readers say so. But still not making money. Hmmmm
I agree with all above points of Rochelle Frank !!!
Great advice here! I'm going to remember to read this each time I'm about to write a new Hub.
I agree, worked for me. I will add, try and write on low competetion topics or get backlinks for high competetion ones.
Create content which thousands of visitors per month wish to find! It's a sure thing!
Use Google Adwords Keyword tool to see what people are searching for in your field of expertise and check the competition against that. For example if you use the phrase 'mental health illness' whilst that will be searched by many, it will also be extremely difficult to get anywhere in google for as millions of other articles will be available. If you change the key phrase to for example 'the role of anxiety in mental illness', there will be less people searching for that but probably easier to rank for ... I haven't checked those by the way that's just an example ... I find now that by researching this and writing a decent hub, I usually get on page 2 or 3 for most and page one for some .. long way to go yet though :-)
I've not got a hub yet that gets thousands of visitors a month- so my advice would be don't do as I do- don't concentrate on Cycling!
Mel,
You realize that golden money maker is there is you had a response to step 2.... lol
I got it and thought it was funny. Watch out for those gnomes!!
My horrible joke aside, go to the Learning Center and seriously soak up all the goodies they have in there.

Yes, I love the Learning Center.
Never have enough time to spend there --- sadly.

I have found some hubs that promote a feeling of hatred towards muslims and islam. I know a person has a right to express his/her views but in my view they should not be in a way that it hurts the emotions of others.

Just out of curiosity I would like to know how often you guys write hubs, once a day? A week? A month?I used to write one every other day, but after summer ended and I got busier I know plan to write 2-3 hubs on the weekends (once on friday, sat, and sunday).

Why are hubbers who only comment and criticize but do not write hubs allowed to remain here?In the past two days, I have had two hubbers criticize my writings after not even thoroughly reading the article/hub. When I check their profile page they have not even written one hub/article...

I'm curious about that, and what other hubbers who do write hubs feel about it. I've seen some folks who don't write hubs, but who obviously read in HubPages and comment on hubs, and who participate in the forums with a good heart and a restrained hand. But I've also seen some others who seem to be...

I like to check Hubpages on breaks at work. Now, I can't access my Hub feed because a Hubber chose to write a Hub about drugs, and Hubpages hasn't caught onto it yet. My organization is pretty fair on what it blocks/allows. Usually blocks things about gun violence, cults, and drugs. They also only...

I just read the hub challenge that asked us to flag hubs that were poor in quality, etcso, out of curiosity I went to the Hubs section and hit latest and ....holy cwap, batman!!! there is so much junk here. It is clear that many either wrote a hub in their native language and translated it via...
