Marketing on Hubpages... Is it a good idea?

    Does anyone here have any experience marketing niche products on hubpages?

    Someone told me Google likes them, and will send your site there a lot of search traffic, and I want to start creating multiple small websites there for niche products to see if they can get enough traffic to make like 1 sale a day, or something from each site I build. The idea being 10 sites making 1 sale a day at $30 each would bring in $300 per day.

    Please let me know if anyone has tried this, or knows if Hubpages is a good place to do this. I'm trying to find a simple, but effective way to replace my former jobs income as I recently became unemployed. Thanks, any help, or advice would be appreciated! =-)

    Hubpages is good for rankings and traffic but ultimately the site is not yours. Eventually, you want to build and rank your own sites that you control.

    The best use for Hubpages, in my experience, is for building links back to your main site.

    Hubpages are good but yesterday we were hearing that they are deleting pages that were or had links back to ClickBank / affiliate products. People were pretty upset as these were good income sites for them. It's best to link your own website to it and not affiliate offers.

    Yeah ever since the Panda updates Hubpages and many other article sites have been laying down the lay on CB and CJ items... Stick with blogspot or your own website and attempt to rank with your own keywords..

    When it comes to marketing niche products hubpages is not the best right now. You it used to be able to get page 1 rankings newly in a day one or two. But now, google kinda' smuck them/panda update. So, hubpages is still a good place to get links back to your website or niche products but hubpages is not the best place to be the place that you are specifically marketing your niche products.

    I don't think Hubpages is used for such marketing. It is more for sharing of information. If you try niche products, you risk getting deleted. No point spending all the time and getting deleted.

    If your page for promotion only, your page will be removed. You need to put some useful information.

    Hubpages is good if you are willing to pay to have the ads removed. I like using Blogger to make free sites. If you buy a domain through them, you can get it cloaked to the hosted Blogger for free as well. It is hard to tell that they are Blogger sites if you know a bit of html to customize it or have an assistant that does. And since Google owns Blogger, it has an insaely high up-time percentage. It'll get pinged by Google right away as well if you do the on page SEO.
