So, I noticed on some hubs that an invitation and link are included in the "profile". Should I be doing this? How do I do this? Also, I'm not sure if my profile is very interesting. Should it be?

Does anyone know how to do this (the logo like the one on HubPages sites? The help page on the Amazon site is missing the code that explains how and Amazon aren't providing customer service.

Do you think adding a picture of yourself to your profile makes your readers connect with you more?

Trying to see if I understand this correctly. The trackers only work from outside of HP, correct? So if I have a new affiliate tracker on my profile page or in a hub, it's worthless to me, right? And if I link from one of my hubs to someone else's via a traffic tracker, again, it does me no good,...

As many of you know, Google recently introduced a feature to identify authors around the web. To be recognized as an author, you need to create a Google profile and add links to your profiles on the websites and blogs where you write (which includes your HubPages sub-domain).However there is...
