Three Published Hubs!
Hey Emi,
Good to see you increasing so quickly and getting some hubs out there. They are certainly a good start, but really need some more content. (I know, me saying the same thing again!)
Say for example your Jack-o-lantern hub, you could make a text box on the pumpkin itself. What kind to get, where to get them, when to get them, how much you might expect to pay, what is the best knife to use when carving, tips on carving etc.
The introductory paragraph needs a bit more description - how easy it is to make.
You could also make a text box on how to illuminate the pumpkin, what candle to use (or whatever it is you put in there, I am in AUS and we don't really do Halloween - bummer
) how tall the candle needs to be to not go out, or how far away from the inside of the pumpkin, what do you sit the candle on in the pumpkin, how do you make the lid part,
Maybe you could tell us why you love Halloween, why you love the lantern, maybe some basic history on the jack o lantern, how it came to be made in a pumpkin, what you've made. If you have done one or plan to do one, take pics as you go so you can show it in stages.
I also don't understand the reference to 5 designs - maybe you could number them and name them and also put in a brief description.
Try to use a new text box for every new topic and send some of those boxes to the right and shade them to make them pop out a little more.
You could also give a bit of a product review on your sales boxes (amazon/ebay) really helps to lift the sales.
Phew, now I quickly typed this out as the ideas flowed, so my apologies for poor grammar and spelling. You are most welcome to use any suggestions to plump out your hub - cause at this point, you are at risk of being over promotional as you have 4 affiliate boxes to not a lot of words.
Hope this helps, I love where you're going with this and even though I am not an expert, I am happy to give any help I have. Currently doing OK with hubpages and getting paid an average of (secret) a month all up - so I am happy to share any of my tips with you
Hey Marie,
Thanks for your kind words, I hope it wasn't too much - but I know how hard it is to get a good hub going! lol
Love your Aussie slang, so nice to see a few of us on here on hubpages now - we're getting quite a collective
Good luck too, hope all goes well for you also and always here for a fellow Aussie
I read a hub the other day suggesting that we at least click twice when reading other hubs. Meaning rating the hub useful real quick, posting a comment, or being involved in a poll. Just something like that is what I meant.

Adsense Program Policy violation?
One of my hubs was just flagged at being at risk for a Google Adsense program policy violation. I have no idea why except that I posted that hub url on She Told Me and Xomba. If anyone has any idea about the possible reason for this, please let me know. Many thanks in advance.

Is posting 10 hubs a day damaging or benefiting my Hubpages Account?
I can't seem to find an answer for this in the learning center. I have a large set of articles I've been writing for a while + some time on my hands to dedicate to Hubpages for the next couple of months. Would publishing 10 hubs a day benefit or disadvantage me, both in terms of hub score /...

Does it hurt my hub scores to have unpublished hubs?
Sometimes when I have ideas for hubs, I "start a hub" and sometimes finish it later or just let it sit there for a while. Maybe I should just write down my hub ideas instead. Does it hurt my hub scores or overall hubber score to have those unfinished hubs (often with just titles) sitting...
