    What one piece of advice would you give to someone new here ?

    I would say to first off check the forums to see if your questions have been answered in there first before asking as you can learn a lot there on all subjects to do with your hubs.
    What would your advice be ?!

    Let others know you exist by getting involved in forums or the questions or leaving comments on hubs.

    If you have followers on twitter or facebook let them know about your articles as you write them.  Same for Digg and Reddit though I find those sites not of interest to me.

    Write to the best of your ability and try not to just snap off any old thing to fill space.  If you build it well, they will come.

    Be very, very,very careful in selecting your title words.  Be sure they are the EXACT words you  think might be used in a search for your article.  Repeat those words in sub-titles.

    Repeat those words in tags.

    1) Read the help section and check out the learning center.
    2) Write good quality content as often as possible.
    3) Visit the question & answer page often: ask what you do not understand and share what you know!

    Write a few hubs and then apply to Amazon and Google.  Amazon ads can be added in a capsule on your content that is relavent.  Google will place ads at the top of your content.

    I would say, read a bit, before you write.  Get familiar with the community and read the Q&A and instructions before you jump.

    Yeah, all the study stuff of course. 

    But most of all - have patience.

    I'd say that you should write only about what you really care about; but also about as many of those subjects (the ones you really know, and care for) as possible.  Also, add as many videos, links, text capsules, and pictures as possible to make a truly epic and beautiful hub.  However, a hub does not have to be huge to be beautiful, sometimes brevity is beautiful too.
