How To Use HubPages Correctly

HubPages is a website designed around sharing advertising revenue for high-quality, user-generated content. HubPages is a free service provided to members (Hubbers) to establish an open online community on creating individual pages on specific topics and allows anyone to publish, discover and interact with people who share their interests.

HubPages ecosystem provides a search-friendly infrastructure which drives traffic to Hubs from search engines such as Google and Yahoo; this enables Hubbers to earn revenue from advertising vehicles such as Google AdSense, Kontera, and the eBay and Amazon Affiliates programs.

  HubPages, unlike normal blog sites, require unique contents to be published if you want to optimize its full functionality. Here are some basic ground rules you need to know on using HubPages correctly:

1.   If your Hub's content is unique to HubPages (doesn't appear anywhere else on the internet) then your Hub can have a MAXIMUM of 2 links to any one domain (tinyurl and other cloakers are considered wildcards).

2.    If your Hub's content appears anywhere else on the internet, then you may NOT add links to sites or offers you are promoting. This means that you can not have any promotional links on hubs that appear elsewhere on the internet.

3.   You can not give a short teaser and a link to "read more" or "continue". The Hub must have the full content you want to present.

4.   You can NOT add links to sites irrelevant to the Hub's topic

5.   Your hub may not contain an RSS feed that directs to the same site as a link within the body of the hub

6.   You should consider adding more original content, or legitimate links to other online resources that complement this Hub's topic

Your articles in your  Hub will not be unpublished after being reviewed as unsuitable to be published in HubPages. You will normally be requested to review and edit your articles in HubPages. The HubPages team will review your Hub again, and publish it if it abides by their rules. You will then get an email saying that the hub has been cleared for publication and republished. Please note that repeated violations on their Term of Use will result in the banning of your account if you misuse the functionalility in HubPages
