So, you’re new to writing on HubPages, and you don’t know where to begin.  I’ve been there, and had no idea how to work with the different capsules, Adsense, and the Amazon Affiliate program.  I’m still in learning mode, but I have found several hubbers who offer helpful information in hubs they’ve written on how to succeed with HubPages. 

One of the hubbers with some of the most helpful information is Rebecca E.  She’s written 195 hubs, has 2,346 followers, and has been a member of HubPages for 17 months.  Wow.  Rebecca E offers information on how to earn money online, how to write better hubs, and more.  One of Rebecca E’s hubs that has helped me the most is Making Money (Earn) from and With Google AdSense in a(One)Day (USD): How Much is Good? (And What do you Want to Make).  In this hub, Rebecca E discusses the fact that writing on HubPages is a business.  You need to have this mindset in order to succeed.  She goes on to discuss the importance of goal-setting in your writing, and the realities of getting paid with Adsense.  Rebecca makes a firm statement that not everyone will make money with Adsense.  I appreciate her honesty on this.  It’s not easy to write online content and earn a living—and it’s best to understand this from the beginning.  There are no get-rich quick ways to make money online that actually succeed.  Earning an online income is work, and you have to work hard and steadily in order to accomplish your goal of making money. 

Another helpful hub by Rebecca E is Make Money, Improve your Google Adsense Earnings in Three Days, But You’d Better Want to Make Money.  Again, Rebecca E stresses working online is just that—work—and it is your business—the business of making money online.  Earning an online income takes a plan and discipline, along with learning from your mistakes.  Rebecca discusses how to increase your Adsense earnings in three days.  Her advice is correct and sensible, so be sure to check out her hub for the details. 

Here’s another hub that has helped me, Amazon Affiliate Program Payout:  Amazon and Hubpages.  In this hub, Rebecca E discusses the need to have more than one income stream when you’re working online.  That means, it’s advisable not to rely on only one source of income, but rather develop several income streams.   That way, if one stream dries up, you’ll still have an income coming from the other streams you’ve developed.   Rebecca E talks about using the Amazon Affiliate program, and then goes on to explain how to sign up for the program and what to expect after that.

Like I said earlier, I’m still in the learning process with making money online.  I understand it takes discipline and work to make money, just as it does in the “real” world.  So, if you stick to your plan day after day, and don’t give up, and learn from your mistakes, I believe you will become successful.  Be sure to check out these helpful hubs, and explore more advice given by other top hubbers in order to learn how to succeed.

Good luck and happy hubbing!
