    Hiya folks,

    I have just started using hubs a few months ago but i'm not entirely sure how it all works.I have been writing about some of my favourite tv shows such as Hollyoaks and also other things about life such as dating tips, interview tips, things that I believe people would find useful. I would like to know good ideas to write about and know how you get fans of your hubs as at the minute I have no fans (it's a bit embarassing really) and I see there are fans of many different people.
    I'm relatively new to this so not really sure where to begin. Any helpful suggestions would be highly appreciated as of any of those who wish to become a fan (might help boost my morale a little bit). smile  Thank you kindly.

      hello.

      when i was new i would see people with 50 fans and go 'wow....50 fans...i will never get there'...then i just started writing hubs and visiting people's hubs and commenting on them and visiting the forum and before you know it i started getting fans. it will happen....good luck!

    The best way to get fans is to post on people's hubs and continue posting in the forums. If you look through the forums, you'll see tons of threads about this, where people have some great advice. Good luck!

    I too am new enough to Hubpages, i think what helps is the more that you are visible to the Hubpage community the greater the chance that people will find your Hubs and fan you if they like it. You should get some fans from this post, and also by viewing other peoples hubs and leaving comments, joining in the forums and fanning others you like should also help. You might take this advise with a grain of salt as i do not have too many fans myself smile.

    Read other people's hubs and comment. Be sure to rate their hubs as well. And now that you're here in the forums, that will help, too.

    The more you participate, the more you'll integrate into the community.

    Welcome!

    I love the idea of building exposure through reading others' hubs and commenting, but answer me this...

    How do you all find the time to enter discussions, read other hubs and get any writing done?

    I'm already an internet addict with a fear of leaving my computer (Apple-agoraphobia?), but I'm running out of living time.

    This is my first post in the forums and I'm already anxious about one more excuse for not getting anything else done.

    Once you post in the forums you're stuck here forever.
