Do’s and Dont's with Hubpages.com
HubPages.com is a site allowing you to write, comment or discuss anything from playing table games to politicians and it’s extremely easy to use so even the internet newbie can use it straight away as can the seasoned professional. The tools which exist on this site for your use are certainly not high techie type tools, rather they are down to earth and very much user friendly. With that said, like most other worthwhile sites being used by the public, this site does have some policies and procedures and there are ways of working it to your benefit. In other words there are do's and don’ts. Here we can take a look at some of them to start you off if you're a newbie and to help you further if you're that seasoned pro.
So, what is Hubpages.com all about?
A hub itself is just like a web page and is filled with information that you have written about on any subject, well almost any subject but more on that later. The great thing about writing your information in a hub is that there is so much you can do to make it interesting for the reader and we all know that relevant interest creates those all important buying customers. In addition to writing content, you can add pictures to jazz it up or add them just to push your point home, and of course you can put that link in there taking the user straight to your website. Plus there's more. On Hubpages you can add video content to your hub or article and you know that people just love to watch a video. Don't forget that if you make that video relevant and interesting leaving the viewer grasping for more information, then they will be able to click on that link you put in the video, yet again take them straight to your website.
Additionally, you can even put your favorite YouTube video or Google video on Hubpages for that extra effect. Oh and if you didn't know, you can put your photo's on there from your digital camera, your computer or directly from the web itself, as long as there is no copyright of course.
To get your message out there, on Hubpages you can invite others to leave a comment on your own hub or you can comment on others or even ask a question. You will in no time at all build up a relationship with other like minded people a.k.a. hubbers.
Now here is the really cool part about this site. In addition to having access to social bookmarking tools, each time you write content, Hubpages will notify all your readers of your new publication! Wow. But it doesn't stop there. As you are writing your new content with all it's images, information and video's, the techie's at Hubpages are busy making sure that Google, Yahoo and other search engines find you. How cool is that? And there's even more. You can earn some cash by displaying Google and Kontera ads on your content page and they even put the ad on for you plus it will be such as is relevant to your content.
With this activity, remember it is always the same. Let your content be relevant. Be sure your links are relevant. Don't overload your page with links as it is frowned upon and you may if you continue the practice you likely will eventually be shut down with none of your hubs being published.
If you're a business you will undoubtedly want to use the site to make money and the same rules will apply here as they do on other sites. Do not blatantly promote yourself. It is unwelcome and frowned upon. Simply discuss your topic and point with the reader(s) to your one or two links. If you have made the content relevant and interesting he/she will click on the link.
Whatever you do, do not write about adult material topics such as pornography, descriptions of sexual acts or practices or excessive profanity. Do not write about gambling either, however discussions of gambling rules, strategies, or events are deemed acceptable.
There are other things you need to be aware of also. Make sure your content is sufficient. If it is too small it will not be accepted. Do not copy others' work. Your website also needs to be of good quality because if it isn't then your content will not be accepted. The same goes for any other site you link to - it needs to be of good quality, while the links themselves must certainly not be deceptive. Take the person to the place you said you would take them.
It has to be said that if you use your common sense then you will keep to these few rules anyway especially as they are fair and easy to keep to.
This is an extremely exciting site and allows you to truly shine in whatever cause you are associated with. Use it wisely and your cause can GROW big.

Hub Pages Works
Hub Pages is another one of those great social networking sites that are perfect for a newbie to get started at. I've done quite a few tutorials on this for our membership and have seen them flourish, because it's so darn simple to set up a professional looking web page using the tool.
We've had to work quite a bit on 'how to write' and 'what to write' but we've had several people who never dreamed they could do it, use Hub Pages to generate leads and build an audience.
As long as you come willing to give (rather than just pitch) you'll do great with Hubs.
Good resource to talk about!
