I did a backlink search on my profile and saw this funny website is linking to hubpages.
http://www.thailandguideonline.com/link … 789&c=
This is totally weird. I clicked the link and got the my hubtivity page. In other words, it was the current hubtivity page, but with my picture. How does that happen?
They have a frame that was advertising escorts and hookers in Thailand. Just thought it was weird they were linking to hubpages LOL. I am not sure how it works, but somehow they are using their frame and url to redirect to hubpages.
This is a very simple trick as the coding calls hubpages. If you click the Hubpage icon top left of this page you will get the same affect.
Here's the source code the link calls up:
src="http://hubpages.com/">

I also found some good, relevant photos that I can't use because the license says no commercial use,...

In the hub, did Simone mean to edit my google+ profile or my hubpages profile? Either way I cant find a page where I can add my...

This is how I understand backlinks. Linking to a webpage that links back to you is more valuable to SEO than not having it link back to you. The more removed this website is from your own the better. For example, linking from one of my hubs to a non-hubpages webpage is more...

Hubpages, what's with your censors lately? Seems hubs gathering plenty of traffic AND backlinks are getting hit by the censors with little regard to the actual DESTINATION of the links! I do "roundup" reviews, where I review a whole bunch of Android apps in the same category. And since I...
