   After a lot of hard work, I have finally gotten paid from the HP Ad Program. I cannot say how much but it was well over the $50 threshold. Thanks to everyone who supported me over the months and I hope that this inspires others to keep writing.

               Maybe you should switch to the HP Ad Program , even with low traffic you don't have to depend on clicks, you will be sure to get something even with low traffic.

                  I was going to but HP uses PayPal and even though I got a PayPal account some time ago I have never used it. The reason is that I have gotten leery about them and I am still checking them out.

      Thanks Christian! I have 48 hubs, I spent 4 hours a week and I have written 2 hubs a week to accomplish this. You can also see my hub for a more detailed breakdown of what I did. Getting paid isn't easy that's for sure.

         Thanks for the information, Susi. I'll keep that in mind. Yes, I will let you know when I reach payout! I will probably come up with another hub for it, although I will have to think of my own angle on it.

       Thanks Writer Fox. When I asked a question on how many hubs it takes to get paid etc, WryLilt answered and said that it takes about six months to get paid and then the payout time halves each time after that. So, I began to earn six months ago and now I am paid so it should take me another 3 months to get paid and then every month after that. Is that true? That's what I'm hoping.

    Congratulations! I got paid this week too from Adsense ($150) for hubs for the first time. About $80 of that was from other Adsense earnings not Hubpages related. I had something like 18 hubs sitting around for 9 months which I forgot about. After payment, I got all excited and move other articles I had written onto Hubpages to make it more. I hope it does get easier
