Hub Pages - Make Money By Writing!

If you think all "make money from home" schemes are scams - think again. There are plenty of genuine websites out there where you can make money by writing. And you don't have to pay a cent - it is all for free! HubPages is one such site. Here is what the website says

"Write content-rich, informative and topical articles on whatever topic areas that you know and love.
Earn money through Google AdSense, Amazon and eBay ads. Many of our users are earning hundreds of dollars per month and some are even earning thousands.
Over 100,000 published writers and 21 million readers every month! High credibility with search engines Google and Yahoo."

The site has an Alexa ranking of #268 as of now. That is pretty high by any standards. What does this ranking mean? Alexa ranking can be taken to a kind of popularity meter on the search engines for a website.

I have known people on hubpages making more than a thousand bucks (usd) a month, every month - with just a few hundred published articles! To make money at Hubpages you need to have affiliate accounts. Hubpages guides you how to get affiliate accounts from Amazon, Google Adsense, Kontera, eBay etc. All you need to do is start writing.

How to have a hundred plus articles at hubpages? It is easier than you think. Write one article of at least 200 words every 3.65 days, create your hub, - and you have a 100 in a year. The more you write - the merrier. So if you love writing, there is no better way to make money from home. HubPages has a Thirty Days Challenge in which one is challenged to write 30 hubs in Thirty Day! Focus on a topic - try that - and you will see how the writing bug bites!

However, if you know a way to make money without any work at all - please tell me!

Join Hubpages here! You need, time, some effort, love but no money.

Starting a Blog on Making Money Online

Let me tell you this blog will be full of my ramblings. Mostly ramblings on making money online. A small introduction. I am a homemaker who spends most of her spare time online. Providentially, I came across a website some two years back which changed my life. The site is called Xomba. I could only give a couple of hours a day to the site - but I discovered a writing platform and a ready made community at Xomba. The Xomba community and its feedback, making money, seeing results for even simple posts - all combined to wean me away from playing online games!

Now, after two satisfying and lucrative years at Xomba - I am out to explore other online making money opportunities. Maybe I have even got the term wrong! I will learn. Couple of things I have learned in the past couple of years is - that perseverance pays and how! and one should not be afraid to experiment or be afraid of failure! So my ramblings here will be all over the net - as i take note, learn, share and get inputs from anyone who reads this blog.

Finally, here is a link to my Xomba profile.

When did I last post here? Long long back! Even though nothing much has happened in my life - Xomba has moved - really gone far far ahead!

In July 2009, Xomba revealed a cool new sophisticated face. From the old simple Xomba - the new design could rival any one the big publishers in sophistication!

What happened to its users? Did it affect them? I think i speak for many when I say - everything improved! ctr, clicks, more targeted viewers, no. of users, etc etc.

I will reveal my earnings at the end of this month. My earnings absolutely leapfrogged after the new faster site was launched!
