I think Hubpages is great for adsense. But I was wondering if there is any other website where I can write and can boost my adsense earning.
Google it or do a search here on HP. There are lots of hubs written about various ways to make money writing online.
I have tried a couple revenue sharing writing websites but they didn't work for me the way HP does.
I think hubpages is sufficient that can can boost your adsense earning.
Diversifying is smart. That's why I'm at HP.
Try InfoBarrel. You can earn up to 90% of the rev share if you participate in contests. Otherwise it's 75%.
Last month I increased my earnings by 211% I think it was 191% if you only want to count Adsense earnings.
There's a link on my HP profile page. If you sign up through me I'll help you as much as I can. The community there is also great. Very community oriented.
@Ultimate Hubber - I think we all have our favorite places. But, using more than one is still smart.
Triond.com is a good site for Adsense. It's become my second earner. It take a while to start getting good traffic but it is worth it. I don't get great traffic on that site but I make payout every month. Payout is 50 cents and my last payment was for $6.55, plus about $4 in Adsense.
SheToldMe.com is a good one and so is Webanswers.com
I use both and both are ad-sense friendly
Long term your best bet is to learn how to build your own sites
Why its so?
Is hubpages is not a right place for adsense?
It is. But see, you don't own this place and you don't control it. You can add many features to your own websites like forums etc which will in turn make you some extra money.
We share the Adsense money with HP (60/40)....on your own site you don't share with anyone.
A good choice is to have your own Blog or website as you control the content, and can even control the look shape and size and location on your blog or website (in the case of Weebly.com, which I use). It is Google Adsense friendly. Blogger.com is both adsense and Amazon Ads compatible, and you can earn from the ads on those free Blogs. YOu get to retain all the income if you own the domain name. The domain name has to be purchased, and possibly the hosting too, but the adsense income can pay for it in time. Amazon is a good earner too.
It is prudent to write on multiple sites since it is better to keep eggs in many baskets.
There are several. You could go the full "article" route, such as Associated Content.
Or you could do something like Hub Pages, which would include Squidoo, Info Barrel, and Red Gage. Probably in that order.
There are also sites such as About.com that share with their writers.
I just started using Helium. Its been too soon to get any idea of the payouts though. Suite101 seems to be ok. Both of those pay in revenue sharing, but you don't need to use your personal adsense account.
A blog or personal site can be great, but the downside is that ALL of your promotion has to come from you. I notice that my hubs get much more traffic than my blog. Blogger is very user friendly and can be monetized with Amazon and Adsense.
I think the best thing to do is try out a few different sites and see what seems to work the best. It's always good to have a few different options in your back pocket. Also certain niche articles may fare bettor on different sites.
I supplement my Adsense income with bookmarking at Xomba. You can add any link on the web, not just your own and you can add several in an hour. You can also post articles their but I haven't gotten a lot of traffic for those.
Sid, you have received a lot of good advice and it would take far too long for me to comment too much on my own experiences, as I have so many good and bad.
A very important word of warning, however!! I see that, like me, you are not based in the USA. There are a great many sites out there - some of them very popular - that will let you join them, submit your content, spend a lot of time working on their site...but not tell you in advance that they will not pay you a brass cent if you are not a US citizen!
The two that I got stung by in this way were Associated Content and Gather. I believe that Associated Content have changed their policies to some (extremely confusing) extent - I know that as of a few weeks ago, Gather have not.
It is always good advice to scrutinise the terms and conditions of any site before writing for it, but for those outwith the US, this is particularly important.
Good luck!
I make most of my money with AdSense on my own blogs and websites, and secondarily, from Squidoo.
I just started here at HubPages - publishing my first hub less than a week ago - and haven't earned a cent but I know I will. Other sites I want to try are Triond and InfoBarrel. I'm doing the 30-day HubChallenge to get a good start here.
I believe it is wise to diversify, and to be able to link articles together from a variety of sites.

Curious: Do you have multiple accounts, because your profile shows 68 hubs. I took a lot of mine and moved them. I let what I have left sit til it goes idle then I take remove it. I have over 80 articles, new ones, that are not published here, but elsewhere. Earnings are less than 2 bucks a month....

I was wondering if Hubpages offer a revenue sharing HTML code that can be implemented into the hubpages members own websites.The Hubpages Ad programme seems to work better than google adsense in respect of how much can be earned per 1000 page views, I would much rather have hubpages adverts being...

I do, do you?I'm just trying to get an idea, for a hub I'm writing. Do you feel the need to own your own website?Has it been beneficial?Do you get a lot of traffic?How do you promote it?

Apart from Hubpages where else can I make money?Are there other good sites that can help me earn more? For now I am just relying on HP and my adsense earnings are not good at all.

Does anyone have any experience with building a website for adsense with the same kind of content you would put on hubpages?Basically what I'm asking is, for the same type of content building, how is putting it on your own website and hubpages different...besides the obvious revenue sharing. ...
by Kate Daily 5 years ago
Just curious, but does anyone have experience with this? How'd you do it? Did you tell Google the article moved somehow or do anything else fancy? Or did you just copy, paste, delete from HubPages, and wait for Google to catch up?Im guessing there might be some duplicate content penalties from...
