I think a few people at HubPages recently have had warning emails from Adsense – in part the email goes something like this: While reviewing your account, we noticed that you are currently displaying Google ads in a manner that is not compliant with our policies. For instance, we found violations of AdSense policies on [...]

eBay Bans Blogger etc Its official – as of 1 August 2009 you cannot not use eBay (EPN) to monetize Blogger (blogspot) blogs, HubPages hubs or Squidoo lenses or InfoBarrel articles. This one is a bit a of a shocker – the time frame of less than two weeks is pretty bad too. Actually eBay [...]
You Really Can Make Thousands on Hubpages
As most of you probably already know I have been on Hubpages for a very long time – it will be three years in October actually. I knew Hubpages very well, I liked the site, the community and my ability to publish there – I thought it was an adjunct to my “real” money sites. [...]
Passive Income: Hubpages Challenge FAILURE!
Yup I did it again – I failed! But its a glorious failure let me explain! You probably heard about the 100 hubs in 30 days challenge and I want to say up front – I failed I didn’t make 100 hubs: I made 62 hubs spread over 3 accounts. Now to date only one [...]

HubPages is NOT a Waste of Time!
I occasionally get the comment that I shouldn’t publish all my better content on sites I don’t own or control. The comment came up again on HubPages where I was told again that I was basically wasting my time publishing there. Well its true at one level: the actual direct income I make from Adsense/Kontera/eBay/Amazon [...]

Knol: Competition for Squidoo and HubPages
Today Google launched their new service Knol. Speculation has been that Knol is an attempt of Google to take on Wikipedia at first glance I think Knol is actually closer to Squidoo or Hubpages. Knol appears to be ambivalent on the commercial appeal of the site. Wikipedia has been robustly and adamantly non-commercial- deleting any [...]
