How much research do most of us put into our hubs?
I am curious to know how much research most of us put into our hubs before we write them? Sometimes I spend a lot of time doing research and sometimes I just sit down and write the hub. What works for you?
I tend to do the research as I write my hub, consulting the links and such as I go. I always intend to spend more time doing research but I'm easily distracted and that tends to result in the hub being delayed.
I don't tend to do a whole lot of research (yes...it shows in my hubs...lol) But I tend to generate stories that don't require too much research...as such...I research as I go along.
Depends on what I'm writing about. If I'm reviewing a movie I've just seen or a CD I've just listened to I usually do a rough draft off the top of my head, then I might read up a bit on IMDb, Wikipedia or a band's official site and use what I learn there to go back and tweak/add certain statements.
I try to do my best to research as much facts as I feel appropriate for the subject at hand.

A form of this question came up in a recent thread. I responded that I can and have written more than 10 hubs or articles in one day. I just finished a hub, and it took me 19 minutes to write it. It's 800 words long. Many of the articles I write for publishers are only 500 words long. So, you see,...

I'm new to Hubpages, as I joined about two weeks ago.I've been looking around and there are many quite prolific hubbers.I know that quality is what matters, but out of curiosity, how long do you spend writing each hub? Including any research, writing, editing.
