Hubpages is a great online writing platform that allows you to create original articles and make money at the same time. The platform is designed to make it easy for you to interact with other writers to help motivate and support you. There are many pros to writing for Hubpages, as well as a few cons. Here they are:
The Pros
Back Links. Hubpages is an essential website that can help you to build high quality back links. The website itself ranks high in the search engines and therefore any link that you can have coming from this website will help you to rank higher in the search engines as well.
Hub Linking. Hubpages has also taken into consideration the importance of linking your hubs together for more traffic. Therefore they have made it extremely easy for you to link to your hubs with a few easy clicks.
Profile Page. Your profile page on Hubpages is important, as it is a great way for you to add links to other sites that you may have. On top of being able to promote your other sites, Hubpages also proudly displays your other hubs. You can create groups for your hubs to neatly organize them for your readers.
Forums. Have questions? Want more exposure? The forums are a great place for you to get help, share your knowledge and increase your exposure within the Hubpages community.
Affiliate Revenue. Hubpages allows you to earn money from your Hubs in several different ways, and that is with Google AdSense, Kontera, eBay and Amazon.
The Cons
There really are not any real cons to writing for hubpages... however, Hubpages is particular regarding the hubs you create. Therefore they have put a rule in place that prevents you from spamming the site with your own links to your website. This rule basically prevents you from adding more than 2 links to any given website in one hub. This may seem unreasonable to some, but at the same time, the fewer links that you have in an article, the more value is placed on those links.
Another area where some have experienced negative experiences is that Hubpages will demonetize your hubs if they are written on sensitive topics. You can still leave your Hubpage up, but you just won't make any money with it.
But overall, Hubpages is a great writing platform, and you would be missing out if you did not take advantage of the site.
