Why People Write On Hubpages
1) To earn money online: Peoples writes hubs because they want to earn money. They can earn easy money from adsense, amazon and ebay. Some time i don’t understand why some peoples earn loads of money from amazon/ebay but not from adsense. And people who earn load of money from adsense don’t earn good money from amazon/ebay. The possible reason, Suppose i am buyer and searching to buy some cool curtains for my childs room but when i visit two hubs. First hub which has adsense enabled but don’t have related ads. So, this hub will earn less. And when i visit other hub which will show some cool curtains for my child room. I will probably think and buy. So, vice versa.
To earn money from hubpges,
-
You should have related ads for adsense for you article.
-
For earning from amazon, you should sell products.
-
You should have load of traffic. Getting traffic on hubpages is depends on the hubbers. Some gets traffic easily and some not.
-
If you have tons of useless traffic you can enable Kontera. But see most people don’t use Kontera. Still people who has tons hubs they use them.

2) To get links from hubpages: Large number of peoples wants to get some do follow links from hubs, this is just because of huge authority and trust from Google, Yahoo, Bing and Ask. If you get some powerful links from these websites you can improve search engine ranking dramatically for your articles/websites. So, i can say this website is also a spammers paradise. Large number of people is using hubpages to get links. So, hubspages implemented one rule. You will get dofollow link only when your profile has scrore of 75. Which is not easy task for most of the peoples. For getting links from this site peoples write 500 words to 2000 words or even hire people to write for them. Finally it is real and worthy deal.
3) To pass time on hubpages: Hubpages has very popular forum. People pass time hours and debate for many things. Some times these debates go dirty and peoples keep fighting on useless things. Still you can find many interesting threads in this forums and you can meet new peoples and writers of different thoughts.
4) To get online recognition: Hubpages has follower and following. It is standard for some people. Suppose you are expert in writing about relationships. So, you will write some article to show your expertise on some topic. This will help you to gain some recognition and people with similar interest will follow you. Some time hubbers who got successful in earning large sums of money and able to get large traffic will show that. Hey peoples here i am, i earned $1000 this month from amazon or i got 15k traffic per day from my hubs.

Very informative post! I didn’t know different hubpages has to have different techniques in order to earn money online. Just like in every blogger’s road to success, traffic is one of the very crucial factors needed when you decide to try your luck on hubpages.
Yes Different hubs should have different strategy. Like amazon products always don’t have lot of relative adsense ads. Like post for adsense don’t have amazon product. Most important get traffic to hubs. Success, moderate success or failure depends of hubbers like we bloggers.
I think we cant earn much coz i also did guest blogging on shoutmeloud but i earned only $0.5 total.
I think guest blogging is good for giving us an exposure but not for earning good.
Hi Rahul
If you can earn $0.5 from guest blogging you can also earn $50 or $500. I consider guest blogging as platform and make relations with other bloggers.
Hay Rahul
Any idea on the kind of money you make or would it be better to stick by being payed to write posts for blogs?
Thanks
Peter
Hi Peter
You have risk. The risk is to write for these sites for free. If it won’t work you are not loosing any thing, i guess. But you will learning something which don’t work.

Yes hubpages can also provide good source of income as whole and you will learn how to rank less competitive keywords high on search engines too.
Wow I never realised its potential i thought people did it just to waste time!
Possibly majority peoples don’t find the real way to do successful hubbing. But if you reveal it. Real potential is there. I am getting 5k impressions per month. I have big plans let see.
@Rahul 5000 impressions per month is pretty good. Are you making any money with those impressions yet? Hubpages is one of many high ranking places you should get a backlink from. There are many others. Mostly social bookmarking sites that rank high with Google. Get a large quantity of quality back links and you will see your own page rank get better. Good luck!
Hi, I see lot of potential in hubpages. I love them. I think squidoo is also same. If we try to work little harder and smarter. We can make full time income from these websites in less then 6 month.
Thanks for taking the time to discuss this, I feel strongly about it and love learning more on this topic. If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with more information? It is extremely helpful for me.
