Make Money with Hubpages
HubPages is a website where members can make money building web pages devoted to a specific topic. A member can build as many hub pages as he likes and on as many topics as he likes. Obviously, there is a good chance to make money with them. The system is similar to Squidoo. However, they have this limitation which allows you to promote one URL only once in the same hub. This is not really a problem if you create your content reasonably long and emphatic and keep your hyperlinks together in one place at the beginning or the end of the article so that if your readers should wish to review one, they can readily find it.
One way you can make money with HubPages is to invite people to join their affiliate program. Every time the people you referred make money, you get some percentage of that income. So this is not a one time thing and should be a very encouraging feature for you if you have a lot of writer friends who are already writing at places like Squidoo.
Also, as already hinted at, you can place affiliate links to products and services in an external website, one link for each URL. You may for instance have some products at eBay that you might want to promote on the hubs, maybe links to Amazon products or some other affiliate program. You might need to make several hubs for one link to achieve enough exposure for and make money on that URL. In fact, the more pages you have that have quality and meaningful content, the more exposure you are likely to get among the other members at HubPages. When people have become familiar with you and they like your content, they will be expecting to read your hubs and you stand to make money.
To make money from articles at HubPages, you don't have to confine your visibility within the circle of its members. You could announce your hubs at social networking sites and article submission sites. In fact this will the be ideal way of getting people to join the HubPages affiliate program which, as mentioned, is a potential source of good and steady, residual income.
Another thing you will have to pay attention to at HubPages is the popularity of the content you are putting in. If what you are writing about doesn't really belong in some popular subject matter, you can, by using the right keywords in your articles, associate it with a more popular and related topic to make money.
As you can very well see, to make money with HubPages, you will need to devote time to your hubs. You don't need exceptional talent in writing. What is really important is your persistence in working at your topic from several angles and occasionally, from the same angle many times. That is also the secret of writing tens, and even hundreds, of unique and original articles on a single topic to make money. Convey to your audience as complete a picture of the subject matter as you can in one hub and then make multiple hubs for a single and important aspect of the topic.
