Build Residual Income with HubPages
HubPages is a great place for writers who also have blogs or websites that are earning money from Google Adsense to create additional residual income. Many websites will pay you to write articles, but few will share the adsense revenue that is recieved from the ads posted alongside your articles. These articles are called “Hubs” and anyone can share their articles and write-ups while getting an opportunity to earn through affiliates links like Google, eBay and Amazon. Hub writers, also known as Hubbers will earn sixty percent of the revenue earned through these links.
So why would anyone share when you can just as easily setup a website or blog with the same affiliate links and make your own residual income and get 100% of the advertising revenue? The reason is that these hubs on HubPages have a much better chance of being picked up by search engines because of the way their application is designed.
The best part about becoming a Hubber the fact that you can connect with others in the HubPages community. You can build relationships with other Hubbers and visit and review each others articles. HubPages is a very popular website and according to the statistics, the traffic on this website has been increasing steadily over the past few years. This is impressive and could be because of the fact that the quality of hubs is much higher than your typical blog.
HubPages are very easy to create and if you can create them quickly, you can begin to earn Adsense revenue and nice residual income from multiple Hubs. There are some writers with literally hundreds of Hubs and they are earning revenue from each one of them. So if you want to build residual income from Adsense and make money online, then get started making some hubs on HubPages today!

I definately recommend this website as it is very useful. There is also the option of earning extra income by referring other people to write on Hubpages. When this is done the percentages of Adsense revenue is 60% for the author, 30% for hubpages and 10% for the referrer. As such, getting referrals does definately improve the income that it is possible to gain from the website.
Thanks Matt! I have a question – how can you see what earnings are actuallu coming from HubPages in your Adsense account? I have a few HubPages, but I cannot find the earnings in my Adsense account. Any advice would be appreciated!
Best,

Hey.
It is relatively simple. Presumably you have already inserted your Adsense ID into Hubpages. If not information of how to do it can be found here: http://hubpages.com/_redirect/hub/How-to-set-up-Google-Adsense-with-Hubpages-and-Earn-Plenty-with-Adsense
It is also possible to see how much is being earned from each individual page. To do this sign into Adsense. Then click on the ‘AdSense Setup’ tab followed by the ‘Channels’ tab. Make sure Adsense for content has been selected, and then click on ‘URL Channels’. There should be the opportunity to click on ‘+ Add New URL Channel’. Here just type in the URL of the page you wish to track, which means that everytime a new hub is created there is the need to go through this. However, it is worth it as it tells you which pages are really successful, and which are rubbish, and therefore gives an idea on what to concentrate on in the future.
I hope this makes sense.

I disagree on Hubpages. Although some people make money on Hubpages, it is very few. One person who also works for Hubpages claims she make approximately 1000/month. She has well over 200 hubs. Another few claim they make 400-500/mo. However, for the majority, the Adsense earnings are slim pickings. I joined in the latter part of September 2008. Since then I have made approximatly $18. My biggest month of earnings was a little over $8 in February. At that time, I thought I might have been wrong around Hubpages. However, the past two months have shown me I was right. This month and last month I haven’t written any hubs. Last month my earning dropped back down to under $3 and this month I have only made 1 cent so far. I have over 50 hubs. Over 85% of them are evergreen/pillar type of articles. I have worked my tail off for the little bit of money I have earned. It seems like unless you are a prolific hubber, you just spin wheels. Thus, this isn’t exactly what I would call a good income much less a residual income. So although you do make a pittance of money, in a way, I would call it a scam.
I have found the opposite, as my earning continue to increase and I definately would not describe it as a scam. In April I have made over $12 so far and that is despite only writing one new hub during the month to give a total of 16. However, I will admit that the earnings do vary greatly between hubs, some hubs have made nothing in April, whilst three account for over $10.
