Squidoo And Hub Pages: Two Forces To Be Dealth With
The net is full of social networking blogspots and communities, but two of the finest out there are Hub Pages and Squidoo. Both of these social Journal networks appear to have an unfair benefit when it comes to placement favorably with the search engines. Along with Word Press, Ezine Articles, and of course Google Blogger, these two communities can get found almost immediately. The question is not if they are helpful forms of marketing but rather, which one lands the hardest thump?
Hub Pages is a community for writers, bloggers, or everyone wanting to reveal something appealing with the written word. Your blogs at Hub Pages are branded as hubs. You can choose from certain modules to augment the look and originality of your hubs. Hub Pages allows you to add your adsense, amazon, and Ebay ID to you hubs to earn revenue from anyone who clicks or buys from your links. You can also add keywords to your hubs to make it simpler for the search engines to position you.
Squidoo is also a community for authors and very similar to Hubpages. The main dissimilarity between the two is that Squidoo refers to its websites as lens. Just like Hub Pages, you can build limitless lens on any matter while earning additional income from adsense, amazon, and Ebay.
Squidoo is very Google responsive and permits you to include up to 40 keywords to your lens to enhance your search engine presence. As you can see, these two powerhouse, high pr social communities share several comparable characteristics; So what are the differences?
The differences commence with the profit from your proceeds modules. Squidoo has a shared earning policy which distributes the entire earnings between the whole Squidoo community depending on the ranking of your lens. The more superior your lens rank, the bigger portion of the earnings you collect. Hub Pages on the other hand allows you to keep 100% of your revenue from adsense, amazon, and Ebay.
Another difference are the procedures and policies. Hub pages is especially stern on self endorsement or over advertising of affiliate products. They will ban you quickly if your intent are to only present content for the singular purpose of spamming. Squidoo also disallows spammers, but they are more inviting to internet marketers who are interested in creating lens to promote their affiliate products or programs. I guess you can say that Squidoo provides you a wider freedom of speech. Hub Pages also does not allow adult content.
Squidoo has recently stiffen their policies on the types of lens that they will allow. Examples of lens that use to be accepted that are no longer acceptable are: Lenses on adult content, medical miracle cures, and lenses with more than 9 links to the same website. If you can reach giant squid status (50 lenses) than these set of laws may be waived.
Both Squidoo and Hub Pages present a place for like minded folks to bring their visions, ideas, products or artistic expressions to the World Wide Web. The question of which one packs the most damaging punch in my belief, can only be left up to every individual. I myself use both. Since both communities are free to become a member and free to socialize, I find it that it makes sense not to show prejudice. The decision between one over the next would be the equivalent of leaving money on the table.
