By participating in HubPages contests and challenges, I have increased Hub views,made new friends, stimulated an ongoing interest in writing, and increased earnings.
Each of the two times I participated in the 60 Day Challenges for writing 1 month and and promoting with the group 1 month, my earnings increased 30% – each time!.
Participation in other group projects and using promotion techniques learned here, along with affiliates and ads, I was able to maintain steady earnings. This was despite some decreases in page views in the midst of the Google “content-farm” crackdown.
In fact, earnings increased in January and February 2011, to a rate of over 50% in February, and increasing in March.
