Hubpages is going extinct, but we can still keep in touch :)
Who here publishes on Substack, Medium, or another place? Drop your details here. I will be glad to support you and follow you on another platform. Hubpages is going away, but I trust all of us here are still planning on being around for a while?
It was nice while it lasted, but what can we do? The old ways and systems are breaking down. Nothing to do but to move on, adapt to the changes and keep pushing forward. I wish everyone good luck and hope to stay connected on whatever avenues continue to survive out there.Posting my Medium here as well. Hope to see more fellow HubPages refugees over there soon!
https://medium.com/@jcjimI tried to post this as a separate forum, but for some reason, HubPages keeps removing the links and parts of my post. So I’m using this thread to share my message instead.
To My Fellow HubPages Writers
With HubPages closing its doors soon, many of us are feeling that familiar mix of sadness, nostalgia, and “what comes next?” A lot of Hubbers have already moved to Medium, and many more are thinking about it now, so I wanted to share something personal.
Back in 2022, I started my own journey on Medium. I wasn’t alone.
John Hansen, Andrea Lawrence, Pamela Oglesby (RIP), and Linda Lum came with me, and together we launched The Hub Publication. I may have founded it, but it only became a true community because they trusted me and stood beside me. I’m deeply grateful to each of them for helping build something meaningful.
Since then, The Hub Publication has grown into a warm corner where former HubPages writers still gather, encourage each other, and keep that old community spirit alive. Today, The Hub Publication has grown into a beautiful space with over 1,500 writers and 6.9k followers
So if you’re planning to join Medium after HubPages shuts down. You’re warmly invited to write with us at The Hub Publication.
You can find our guidelines at the top of our homepage.
Wishing everyone a gentle transition.

The Day Has Come
Well, we knew this day would come. We've seen the writing on the wall for some time now. But as a veteran of HubPages, I must say I'm incredibly sad. This place has meant so much to me.

Weigh in: HubPages at imminent risk of becoming irrelevant/shutdown?
Hopefully someone in administration will weigh in as well, but community opinion is just as important. I've been gone for a hot minute, my score has dropped by about 7-10 digits, but my gaming content (notoriously my most popular earning content) is still performing quite well. I get hundreds of...

Medium writers: Can you help?
I'm aiming to try Medium. I've seen others say things like, "It took me three months to figure out what I was doing there," so I'm trying to reduce that learning period with research. I've already learned a lot just from reading the Medium Guides, but I have a couple of questions, which...
